com.jogamp.opengl.util.awt.TextureRenderer

public class TextureRenderer
extends Object

Provides the ability to render into an OpenGL Texture using the Java 2D APIs. This renderer class uses an internal Java 2D image (of unspecified type) for its backing store and flushes portions of that image to an OpenGL texture on demand. The resulting OpenGL texture can then be mapped on to a polygon for display.

Constructor Detail

TextureRenderer

public TextureRenderer(int width,
               int height,
               boolean alpha)

Creates a new renderer with backing store of the specified width and height. If alpha is true, allocates an alpha channel in the backing store image. No mipmap support is requested.

Parameters:

width - the width of the texture to render into

height - the height of the texture to render into

alpha - whether to allocate an alpha channel for the texture

TextureRenderer

public TextureRenderer(int width,
               int height,
               boolean alpha,
               boolean mipmap)

Creates a new renderer with backing store of the specified width and height. If alpha is true, allocates an alpha channel in the backing store image. If mipmap is true, attempts to use OpenGL's automatic mipmap generation for better smoothing when rendering the TextureRenderer's contents at a distance.

Parameters:

width - the width of the texture to render into

height - the height of the texture to render into

alpha - whether to allocate an alpha channel for the texture

mipmap - whether to attempt use of automatic mipmap generation

Method Detail

createAlphaOnlyRenderer

public static TextureRenderer createAlphaOnlyRenderer(int width,
                                      int height)

Creates a new renderer with a special kind of backing store which acts only as an alpha channel. No mipmap support is requested. Internally, this associates a GL_INTENSITY OpenGL texture with the backing store.

createAlphaOnlyRenderer

public static TextureRenderer createAlphaOnlyRenderer(int width,
                                      int height,
                                      boolean mipmap)

Creates a new renderer with a special kind of backing store which acts only as an alpha channel. If mipmap is true, attempts to use OpenGL's automatic mipmap generation for better smoothing when rendering the TextureRenderer's contents at a distance. Internally, this associates a GL_INTENSITY OpenGL texture with the backing store.

d - the new size of the backing store of this renderer

Throws:

GLException - If an OpenGL context is not current when this method is called

setSmoothing

public void setSmoothing(boolean smoothing)

Parameters:

smoothing - whether smoothing is enabled for the OpenGL texture

getSmoothing

public boolean getSmoothing()

Returns whether smoothing is enabled for the OpenGL texture; see setSmoothing. Defaults to true.

Returns:

whether smoothing is enabled for the OpenGL texture

Throws:

GLException - If an OpenGL context is not current when this method is called

beginOrthoRendering

public void beginOrthoRendering(int width,
                       int height)
                         throws GLException

Convenience method which assists in rendering portions of the OpenGL texture to the screen, if the application intends to draw them as a flat overlay on to the screen. Pushes OpenGL state bits (GL_ENABLE_BIT, GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT and GL_TRANSFORM_BIT); disables the depth test, back-face culling, and lighting; enables the texture in this renderer; and sets up the viewing matrices for orthographic rendering where the coordinates go from (0, 0) at the lower left to (width, height) at the upper right. Equivalent to beginOrthoRendering(width, height, true). endOrthoRendering() must be used in conjunction with this method to restore all OpenGL states.

Parameters:

width - the width of the current on-screen OpenGL drawable

height - the height of the current on-screen OpenGL drawable

Throws:

GLException - If an OpenGL context is not current when this method is called

beginOrthoRendering

public void beginOrthoRendering(int width,
                       int height,
                       boolean disableDepthTest)
                         throws GLException

Convenience method which assists in rendering portions of the OpenGL texture to the screen, if the application intends to draw them as a flat overlay on to the screen. Pushes OpenGL state bits (GL_ENABLE_BIT, GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT and GL_TRANSFORM_BIT); disables the depth test (if the "disableDepthTest" argument is true), back-face culling, and lighting; enables the texture in this renderer; and sets up the viewing matrices for orthographic rendering where the coordinates go from (0, 0) at the lower left to (width, height) at the upper right. endOrthoRendering() must be used in conjunction with this method to restore all OpenGL states.

Parameters:

width - the width of the current on-screen OpenGL drawable

height - the height of the current on-screen OpenGL drawable

disableDepthTest - whether the depth test should be disabled

Throws:

GLException - If an OpenGL context is not current when this method is called

begin3DRendering

public void begin3DRendering()
                      throws GLException

Convenience method which assists in rendering portions of the OpenGL texture to the screen as 2D quads in 3D space. Pushes OpenGL state (GL_ENABLE_BIT); disables lighting; and enables the texture in this renderer. Unlike beginOrthoRendering, does not modify the depth test, back-face culling, lighting, or the modelview or projection matrices. The user is responsible for setting up the view matrices for correct results of draw3DRect. end3DRendering() must be used in conjunction with this method to restore all OpenGL states.

Throws:

GLException - If an OpenGL context is not current when this method is called

setColor

public void setColor(float r,
            float g,
            float b,
            float a)
              throws GLException

Changes the color of the polygons, and therefore the drawn images, this TextureRenderer produces. Use of this method is optional. The TextureRenderer uses the GL_MODULATE texture environment mode, which causes the portions of the rendered texture to be multiplied by the color of the rendered polygons. The polygon color can be varied to achieve effects like tinting of the overall output or fading in and out by changing the alpha of the color.

Each component ranges from 0.0f - 1.0f. The alpha component, if used, does not need to be premultiplied into the color channels as described in the documentation for Texture, although premultiplied colors are used internally. The default color is opaque white.

Parameters:

r - the red component of the new color

g - the green component of the new color

b - the blue component of the new color

a - the alpha component of the new color, 0.0f = completely transparent, 1.0f = completely opaque

Throws:

GLException - If an OpenGL context is not current when this method is called

setColor

public void setColor(Color color)
              throws GLException

Changes the current color of this TextureRenderer to the supplied one. The default color is opaque white. See setColor for more details.

Parameters:

color - the new color to use for rendering

Throws:

GLException - If an OpenGL context is not current when this method is called

                 int screeny)
                   throws GLException

Draws an orthographically projected rectangle containing all of the underlying texture to the specified location on the screen. All (x, y) coordinates are specified relative to the lower left corner of either the texture image or the current OpenGL drawable.
