Public / Methods

AcquireTry

Acquires a strong reference to this disposable object.

[OwnerReturn, ThreadSafe]
public method AcquireTry ()
type IDisposable
returns this if a new strong reference has been acquired, null if this object is already being disposed.
inherited Disposable.AcquireTry

Remarks:

The object will not be actually disposed by calls to Dispose when there is at least one strong reference left. Code that calls the AcquireTry method is responsible for calling the Dispose method accordingly.

This method is not intended to be used in performance-critical code. It should only be used to high-level resource management.

ConsumeInput

Consumes the given user input event.

public method ConsumeInput (InputEvent inputEvent)
type bool
params inputEvent The user input event.
returns true if the input event has been consumed, false if not.
inherited Component.ConsumeInput

Remarks:

Input events are provided to an IInputConsumer object only if it has the input focus (see FocusGained and FocusLost). Mouse events are provided when the mouse cursor is inside of the input bounds (MouseEnter and MouseLeave). The Closing event can be provided at any time.

  1. FocusGained: gained input focus
  2. Keyboard events:
  3. Mouse events:
    1. MouseEnter
    2. Mouse events:
    3. MouseLeave
  4. FocusLost: lost input focus
  5. Closing: user request to shut down

Dispose

Releases all resources held by this object if there are no more strong references to it, decrements the reference counter by one otherwise.

[Dispose, OwnerThis, ThreadSafe]
public method Dispose ()
inherited Disposable.Dispose

Remarks:

The Dispose method silently returns if the object has already been disposed.

Focus

Transfers the input focus to this component.

public method Focus ()
returns [not-null] this
inherited Component.Focus

GraphicsAttach

Attaches this component to the given Graphics context.

public virtual method GraphicsAttach (Graphics graphics)

public method Render2D (Graphics g)
params g [not-null] The graphics object to use.
inherited Component.Render2D

Remarks:

When this method is called, the given Graphics object has already been initialized for 2D rendering:

Usually, Render2D is called from within Render.

UpdateFrameTime

This method is called once per application frame.

public virtual method UpdateFrameTime (float32 time)
type bool
params time [>0] The amount of time that has elapsed since the last frame, in seconds.
returns true if the object needs to be presented again, false if the current presentation is still valid.

protected virtual property ActualLayoutSize { get }
type Vec2I
value The actual minimum layout size.
inherited Component.ActualLayoutSize
