class PxRefCounted : public PxBase

Base class for ref-counted objects.

Subclassed by PxBaseMaterial, PxConvexMesh, PxHeightField, PxShape, PxSoftBodyAuxData, PxSoftBodyMesh, PxTetrahedronMesh, PxTriangleMesh

Public Functions

virtual void release() = 0

Decrements the reference count of the object and releases it if the new reference count is zero.

virtual PxU32 getReferenceCount() const = 0

Returns the reference count of the object.

At creation, the reference count of the object is 1. Every other object referencing this object increments the count by 1. When the reference count reaches 0, and only then, the object gets destroyed automatically.

Returns

the current reference count.

virtual void acquireReference() = 0

Acquires a counted reference to this object.

This method increases the reference count of the object by 1. Decrement the reference count by calling release()

virtual const char *getConcreteTypeName() const = 0

Returns string name of dynamic type.

Returns

Class name of most derived type of this object.

template<class T>
inline T *is()
template<class T>
inline const T *is() const
inline PxType getConcreteType() const

Returns concrete type of object.

inline void setBaseFlag(PxBaseFlag::Enum flag, bool value)

Set PxBaseFlag

Parameters

  • flag – [in] The flag to be set

  • value – [in] The flags new value

inline void setBaseFlags(PxBaseFlags inFlags)

Set PxBaseFlags

Parameters

inFlags – [in] The flags to be set

inline PxBaseFlags getBaseFlags() const

Returns PxBaseFlags.

Returns

PxBaseFlags

inline virtual bool isReleasable() const

Whether the object is subordinate.

A class is subordinate, if it can only be instantiated in the context of another class.
