Constructors

GLMaterial

GLMaterial()

The default GLMaterial constructor.

GLMaterial

GLMaterial(

wxColour

color

)

The wxColour GLMaterial constructor.

Parameters

color

The color the material should be initialized to.

Enumerations

Property

The different kinds of properties that can be set. A user can specify the following properties for the material: Ambient, Diffuse, Emissive, Specular.

Functions

SetProperty

void SetProperty(	Property	property,
	wxColour	color	)

Sets the color values of a certain property of the material.

Parameters

property	The material property being set.
color	The value the ambient color should be set to.

SetMaterial

void SetMaterial(

wxColour

color

)

Sets both the ambient and diffuse properties of the material.

Parameters

color

The value the ambient and diffuse colors should be set to.

MultProperty

void MultProperty(	Property	property,
	GLfloat	val	)

Multiplies the specified property by a certain value. Useful for dimming or brightening a material.

Parameters

property	The material property being multiplied.
val	The value by which the property should be multipled.

UseMaterial

void UseMaterial() const

Calls OpenGL directly and sets the current material properties to this material.

Private

Summary

Variables
mAmbient	The ambient color.
