Method Detail

createClone

protected Feature createClone(java.util.HashMap clones)
This is an implementation method that should not be called direction by applications; applications should call cloneSubgraph(). New subclasses of Feature that wish to support cloning must override this method.

Create a new clone of this feature. This method creates a new instance of this feature, and creates new instances of any sub-features, but it does not initialize the feature. This method is called from Feature.makeNewClone().

See the documentation of cloneSubgraph() for a list of runtime exceptions this method can throw. Subclasses that wish to support cloning must override this method.

Overrides:
createClone in class Feature
Parameters:
clones - A map from original feature to cloned feature. Entries are added by Feature.makeNewClone().
See Also:
Feature.makeNewClone(java.util.HashMap), Feature.cloneSubgraph(java.util.HashMap)

initializeClone

protected void initializeClone(Feature original,
                               java.util.HashMap clones)
This is an implementation method that should not be called direction by applications; it is called from cloneSubgraph(). New subclasses of Feature may override this method.

Initialize this cloned feature from its original. This is called after the entire subgraph has been cloned, so the HashMap containing the set of clones will be complete. See the documentation of cloneSubgraph() for a list of runtime exceptions this method can throw. Subclasses that wish to support cloning must override this method.

If this feature doesn't need initialization it's OK for a feature to not implement it; the default version of this method does nothing. Typically, you only need to implement this for features that have references to other features that aren't sub-features, or that have commands that might have references to other features.

Overrides:
initializeClone in class Feature
See Also:
Feature.cloneSubgraph(java.util.HashMap)

getX

public int getX()
Get the upper-left hand corner of this feature as presently displayed. Return Integer.MAX_VALUE if this feature has no visible representation.

Specified by:
getX in class Feature
Returns:
the x coordinate

getY

public int getY()
Get the upper-left hand corner of this feature as presently displayed Return Integer.MAX_VALUE if this feature has no visible representation.

Specified by:
getY in class Feature
Returns:
the y coordinate

resize

public void resize(int x,
                   int y,
                   int width,
                   int height)
Resizes the box.

This should not be directly called by clients of the GRIN framework, unless it is done from the animation thread (within a command body, or inside an implementation of Director.nextFrame()). Calls are synchronized to only occur within model updates, with the show lock held.


resizeOutline

public void resizeOutline(int outlineWidthX,
                          int outlineWidthY)
Resizes the outline around the box.

This should not be directly called by clients of the GRIN framework, unless it is done from the animation thread (within a command body, or inside an implementation of Director.nextFrame()). Calls are synchronized to only occur within model updates, with the show lock held.


changeBoxColor

public void changeBoxColor(java.awt.Color c)
Changes the color of the box.

This should not be directly called by clients of the GRIN framework, unless it is done from the animation thread (within a command body, or inside an implementation of Director.nextFrame()). Calls are synchronized to only occur within model updates, with the show lock held.


changeBoxOutlineColor

public void changeBoxOutlineColor(java.awt.Color c)
Changes the color of the box outline.

This should not be directly called by clients of the GRIN framework, unless it is done from the animation thread (within a command body, or inside an implementation of Director.nextFrame()). Calls are synchronized to only occur within model updates, with the show lock held.


initialize

public void initialize()
Initialize this feature. This is called on show initialization. A show will initialize all of its features after it initializes the segments.

Specified by:
initialize in class Feature

destroy

public void destroy()
Free any resources held by this feature. It is the opposite of initialize().

Features are deactivated before they are destroyed. For example, the last segment a show is in when the show is destroyed will probably be active, but it is deactivated and unsetup() is called in Show.destroy() before the features are destroyed.

Cloned features are handled a little differently. They have destroy() called from within Feature.destroyClonedSubgraph(). Since cloned fetures are exempt from the setup/unsetup lifecycle, the cloned feature will not be activated, but will be in a setup state when destroy() is called. Features that support cloning must therefore release any resources they acquired in createClone() or initializeClone() during the call to destroy().

Clients of the GRIN framework should never call this method directly. Custom feature extensions must implement this method.

Specified by:
destroy in class Feature

setActivateMode

protected void setActivateMode(boolean mode)
Change the activated mode of this feature. The new mode will always be different than the old. Clients of the GRIN framework should never call this method directly. Custom feature extensions must implement this method.

Specified by:
setActivateMode in class Feature

setSetupMode

protected int setSetupMode(boolean mode)
Change the setup mode of this feature. The new mode will always be different than the old. Clients of the GRIN framework should never call this method directly. Custom feature extensions must implement this method.

This method must return a guaranteed lower bound for the number of times it will send a feature setup command as a result of this call. That is, it must send at least as many feature setup commands to the segment as the number returned; sending an accurate number makes the setup process more efficient, since the time it takes to process a command scales with the number of features in a segment. When mode is false, 0 should be returned.

Specified by:
setSetupMode in class Feature

needsMoreSetup

public boolean needsMoreSetup()
This is where the feaure says whether or not it needs more setup. Calls to this are synchronized within the init manager to avoid race conditions. The implementation of this method must not call outside code or call any animation manager methods. For a given setup cycle, this method is called only after setup(). Clients of the GRIN framework should never call this method directly. Custom feature extensions must implement this method.

Specified by:
needsMoreSetup in class Feature
See Also:
SetupClient.needsMoreSetup()

nextFrame

public void nextFrame()
Called from Segment with the Show lock held, to advance us to the state we should be in for the next frame.

Specified by:
nextFrame in class Feature

markDisplayAreasChanged

public void markDisplayAreasChanged()
Mark the display areas of this feature as modified for the next call to addDisplayAreas. This can be called by a parent node on its children, e.g. when the parent is deactivated. This is necessary because a parent node might modify the drawing of its children (e.g. by setting an alpha value), and a parent might be taken out of a render tree when its children are not.

See also Issue 121

Specified by:
markDisplayAreasChanged in class Feature
See Also:
Feature.addDisplayAreas(com.hdcookbook.grin.animator.RenderContext)

addDisplayAreas

public void addDisplayAreas(RenderContext context)
Add all of the areas that are displayed for this feature with the current frame. This will be called exactly once per frame displayed on each activated feature.

A feature that displays something needs to maintain a record of it in a DrawRecord. The animation framework uses this to track what needs to be erased and drawn from frame to frame.

Clients of the GRIN framework should not call this method directly. Feature subclasses must implement this method.

Specified by:
addDisplayAreas in class Feature
Parameters:
context - The context for tracking rendering state
See Also:
DrawRecord

paintFrame

public void paintFrame(java.awt.Graphics2D gr)
Paint the current state of this feature to gr. Clients of the GRIN framework should not call this method directly. Feature subclasses must implement this method.

Specified by:
paintFrame in class Feature
Parameters:
gr - The place to paint to.

readInstanceData

public void readInstanceData(GrinDataInputStream in,
                             int length)
                      throws java.io.IOException
Description copied from interface: Node
Reads in this node information from the binary file format.

An implementation of this method is recommended to call in.readSuperClassData(this) as the first line of the method to read in information that is defined in the base class of this Node type.

This should only be called while initializing this object.

Specified by:
readInstanceData in interface Node
Parameters:
in - InputStream to read data from.
length - the number of bytes that this node's information occupies in the InputStream. The implementation of this method is expected to read exactly this number of bytes from the stream. This can be used for a debugging purpose.
Throws:
java.io.IOException - if error occurs.
