Detailed Description

a superclass for prop cullers

A culler has a cull method called by the vtkRenderer. The cull method is called before any rendering is performed, and it allows the culler to do some processing on the props and to modify their AllocatedRenderTime and re-order them in the prop list.

Member Function Documentation

virtual const char* vtkCuller::GetClassName ( ) [virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkObject.
Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

int vtkCuller::IsTypeOf ( const char * type ) [static]

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.
Reimplemented from vtkObject.
Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

virtual int vtkCuller::IsA ( const char * type ) [virtual]

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.
Reimplemented from vtkObject.
Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

vtkCuller* vtkCuller::SafeDownCast ( vtkObject * o ) [static]

Reimplemented from vtkObject.
Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

virtual void vtkCuller::PrintSelf ( ostream & os,

vtkIndent indent

) [virtual]

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.
Reimplemented from vtkObject.
Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

virtual double vtkCuller::Cull ( vtkRenderer * ren,

vtkProp ** propList,

int & listLength,

int & initialized

) [pure virtual]

This is called outside the render loop by vtkRenderer
Implemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.
