Detailed Description

Binary converter for serialized streams.

The binary converter class is targeted at converting binary streams from authoring platforms, such as windows, osx or linux to any game runtime platform supported by PhysX. Particularly it is currently not supported to run the converter on a platforms that has an endian mismatch with the platform corresponding to the source binary file and source meta data.

If you want to use multiple threads for batch conversions, please create one instance of this class for each thread.

Member Function Documentation

virtual bool PxBinaryConverter::compareMetaData (  )  const [pure virtual]

Test utility function to compare two sets of meta data.

The meta data needs to be set before calling the compareMetaData method. This method will issue PxErrorCode::eDEBUG_INFO messages if mismatches are encountered.

Returns:
True if meta data is equivalend

virtual bool PxBinaryConverter::convert ( PxInputStream srcStream,
PxU32  srcSize,
PxOutputStream targetStream 
) [pure virtual]

Converts binary stream from source platform to target platform.

The converter needs to be configured with source and destination meta data before calling the conversion method. The source meta data needs to correspond to the same platform as the source binary data.

Parameters:
[in] srcStream Source stream
[in] srcSize Number of bytes to convert
[in] targetStream Target stream
Returns:
True if success

virtual void PxBinaryConverter::release (  )  [pure virtual]

Releases binary converter.

virtual bool PxBinaryConverter::setMetaData ( PxInputStream srcMetaData,
PxInputStream dstMetaData 
) [pure virtual]

Setups source and target meta-data streams.

The source meta data provided needs to have the same endianness as the platform the converter is run on. The meta data needs to be set before calling the conversion method.

Parameters:
[in] srcMetaData Source platform's meta-data stream
[in] dstMetaData Target platform's meta-data stream
Returns:
True if success

virtual void PxBinaryConverter::setReportMode ( PxConverterReportMode::Enum  mode  )  [pure virtual]

Sets desired report mode.

Parameters:
[in] mode Report mode
