Detailed Description

A Description representing a raw 3D mesh.

Most or all of the mesh specification will be implementation specific, and hence the mesh is described primarily by a "resource name" attribute that will be interpreted by the underlying engine. The engine will use it to locate the appropriate native mesh resource.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void Phx::GraphicsEngine::MeshDescription::resourceName (  const String &  resourceName  )  [pure virtual]

Sets the resource name for the mesh. The resource name should not have any file-type suffix. This allows different implementations to select the appropriate file type for the platform/engine in use. For instance, OGRE may add a .mesh suffix and attempt to load a .mesh resource from the media directory. If a different engine is being used, with a different native format (e.g., because OGRE does not work on that platform yet), then it may choose to supply a different suffix, or may search a different path. In any case, all that needs to be supplied here is the location and root name of the resource (e.g., "MyData/MyMesh" instead of "MyData/MyMesh.mesh").
