xy::TextSystem Class Reference

Updates the vertices of the drawable components associated with Text components. NOTE As text is rendered via a drawable component in the same way as sprites and other drawables, the drawable component should use setDepth() to increase the depth value of a text renderable so that it appears above other drawables. This should be the first thing to check if text appears 'invisible'. More...

Public Member Functions
	TextSystem (xy::MessageBus &)
void	process (float) override
	Implement this for system specific processing to entities.
Public Member Functions inherited from xy::System
	System (MessageBus &mb, UniqueType t)
	Constructor. Pass in a reference to the concrete implementation to generate a unique type ID for this system.
UniqueType	getType () const
	Returns the unique type ID of the system.
const std::vector< Entity > &	getEntities () const
	Returns a list of entities that this system is currently interested in.
void	addEntity (Entity)
	Adds an entity to the list to process.
void	removeEntity (Entity)
	Removes an entity from the list to process.
const ComponentMask &	getComponentMask () const
	Returns the component mask used to mask entities with corresponding components for this system to process.
virtual void	handleMessage (const Message &)
	Used to process any incoming system messages.
bool	isActive () const
	Returns true if the system is currently active. Systems can be activeated and deactivated with Scene::setSystemActive()

Protected Member Functions inherited from xy::System
template<typename T >
void	requireComponent ()
	Adds a component type to the list of components required by the system for it to be interested in a particular entity. This should only be used in the constructor of the System else types will not be registered.

virtual void	onEntityAdded (Entity)
	Optional callback performed when an entity is added.
virtual void	onEntityRemoved (Entity)
	Optional callback performed when an entity is removed.
template<typename T >
T *	postMessage (Message::ID id)
	Posts a message on the system wide message bus.
MessageBus &	getMessageBus ()
	Returns a reference to the MessageBus.
void	setScene (Scene &)
Scene *	getScene ()
	Returns a pointer to the scene to which this system belongs.
