Detailed Description

Data structure for a material.

Material data is stored using a key-value structure. A single key-value pair is called a 'material property'. C++ users should use the provided member functions of aiMaterial to process material properties, C users have to stick with the aiMaterialGetXXX family of unbound functions. The library defines a set of standard keys (AI_MATKEY_XXX).

aiReturn aiMaterial::AddBinaryProperty ( const void *  pInput,
unsigned int  pSizeInBytes,
const char *  pKey,
unsigned int  type,
unsigned int  index,
aiPropertyTypeInfo  pType 
)

Add a property with a given key and type info to the material structure.

Parameters:
pInput Pointer to input data
pSizeInBytes Size of input data
pKey Key/Usage of the property (AI_MATKEY_XXX)
type Set by the AI_MATKEY_XXX macro
index Set by the AI_MATKEY_XXX macro
pType Type information hint
template<class TYPE >
aiReturn aiMaterial::AddProperty ( const TYPE *  pInput,
unsigned int  pNumValues,
const char *  pKey,
unsigned int  type = 0,
unsigned int  index = 0 
) [inline]

Add a property with a given key to the material structure.

Parameters:
pInput Pointer to the input data
pNumValues Number of values in the array
pKey Key/Usage of the property (AI_MATKEY_XXX)
type Set by the AI_MATKEY_XXX macro
index Set by the AI_MATKEY_XXX macro
aiReturn aiMaterial::AddProperty ( const aiString pInput,
const char *  pKey,
unsigned int  type = 0,
unsigned int  index = 0 
)

Add a string property with a given key and type info to the material structure.

Parameters:
pInput Input string
pKey Key/Usage of the property (AI_MATKEY_XXX)
type Set by the AI_MATKEY_XXX macro
index Set by the AI_MATKEY_XXX macro
void aiMaterial::Clear (  ) 

Removes all properties from the material.

The data array remains allocated so adding new properties is quite fast.

static void aiMaterial::CopyPropertyList ( aiMaterial pcDest,
const aiMaterial pcSrc 
) [static]

Copy the property list of a material.

Parameters:
pcDest Destination material
pcSrc Source material
template<typename Type >
aiReturn aiMaterial::Get ( const char *  pKey,
unsigned int  type,
unsigned int  idx,
Type &  pOut 
) const [inline]

Retrieve a Type value with a specific key from the material.

Parameters:
pKey Key to search for. One of the AI_MATKEY_XXX constants.
type Specifies the type of the texture to be retrieved ( e.g. diffuse, specular, height map ...)
idx Index of the texture to be retrieved.
pOut Reference to receive the output value
template<typename Type >
aiReturn aiMaterial::Get ( const char *  pKey,
unsigned int  type,
unsigned int  idx,
Type *  pOut,
unsigned int *  pMax 
) const [inline]

Retrieve an array of Type values with a specific key from the material.

Parameters:
pKey Key to search for. One of the AI_MATKEY_XXX constants.
type .. set by AI_MATKEY_XXX
idx .. set by AI_MATKEY_XXX
pOut Pointer to a buffer to receive the result.
pMax Specifies the size of the given buffer, in Type's. Receives the number of values (not bytes!) read. NULL is a valid value for this parameter.
aiReturn aiMaterial::GetTexture ( aiTextureType  type,
unsigned int  index,
aiString path,
aiTextureMapping mapping = NULL,
unsigned int *  uvindex = NULL,
float *  blend = NULL,
aiTextureOp op = NULL,
aiTextureMapMode mapmode = NULL 
) const

Helper function to get all parameters pertaining to a particular texture slot from a material.

This function is provided just for convenience, you could also read the single material properties manually.

Parameters:
type Specifies the type of the texture to be retrieved ( e.g. diffuse, specular, height map ...)
index Index of the texture to be retrieved. The function fails if there is no texture of that type with this index. GetTextureCount() can be used to determine the number of textures per texture type.
path Receives the path to the texture. NULL is a valid value.
mapping The texture mapping. NULL is allowed as value.
uvindex Receives the UV index of the texture. NULL is a valid value.
blend Receives the blend factor for the texture NULL is a valid value.
op Receives the texture operation to be performed between this texture and the previous texture. NULL is allowed as value.
mapmode Receives the mapping modes to be used for the texture. The parameter may be NULL but if it is a valid pointer it MUST point to an array of 3 aiTextureMapMode's (one for each axis: UVW order (=XYZ)).
unsigned int aiMaterial::GetTextureCount ( aiTextureType  type  )  const

Get the number of textures for a particular texture type.

Parameters:
type Texture type to check for
Returns:
Number of textures for this type.
Note:
A texture can be easily queried using GetTexture()
aiReturn aiMaterial::RemoveProperty ( const char *  pKey,
unsigned int  type = 0,
unsigned int  index = 0 
)

Remove a given key from the list.

The function fails if the key isn't found

Parameters:
pKey Key to be deleted
