Documentation

Core InteractionManager Class. Role : This class performs the core interaction updates. It is an aggregate consisting of a TrackerManger, a GraphicsIntersectionManager, an InputManager, a Traveler, a GraphicsManager and a NetworkManager.
Responsibilities: It is responsible for instantiating the Input Manager the TrackerManager and the GraphicsIntersectionManager These are the components updated during core interaction updates.

TcInteractionManager(TcGfxManager &gfxM)

Constructor.

virtual ~TcInteractionManager()

Destructor.

int config()

This must be called in the Constructor of a derived class before any of the aggregate members can be accessed. This includes the InputManager, TrackerManager and GraphicsIntersectionManager.

bool isConfigured()

This determines if config has been called.

void updateInteractions()

This is called from the Core Execution Control loop.

virtual TcTrackerManager* createTrackerManager()

Factory Method. Clients must override this if they wish to provide a custom TrackerManager. They will have to implement the interface of the default tracker manager. Currently one is provided that is implemented on top of the CAVElib.

virtual TcGfxIntersectionManager* createIntersectionManager()

Clients must override this if they wish to provide a custom IntersectionManager. They will have to implement the interface of the default intersectionManager. Currently one is provided.

virtual TcInputManager* createInputManager()

Factory Method. Clients must override this if they wish to provide a custom InputManager. They will have to implement the interface of the default inputManager. Currently one is provided that is implementd on top of the CAVElib.

const TcInputManager& getInputManager()
