Method Detail

getNumEnabled

public static int getNumEnabled()

Return the number of Vertex effects enabled.

setMeshAssociation

public void setMeshAssociation(int andAssociation,
                      int equAssociation)

Set Mesh association. This creates an association between a Component of a Mesh and this Vertex Effect. One can set two types of associations - an 'logical and' and a 'equal' associations and the Effect will only be active on vertices of Components such that (effect andAssoc) & (component andAssoc) != 0 || (effect equAssoc) == (mesh equAssoc) (see main_vertex_shader) The point: this way we can configure the system so that each Vertex Effect acts only on a certain subset of a Mesh, thus potentially significantly reducing the number of render calls.
