Method Detail

addToCache

public <T> void addToCache(AssetKey<T> key,
                           T obj)

Description copied from interface: AssetCache

Adds an asset to the cache. Once added, it should be possible to retrieve the asset by using the AssetCache.getFromCache(com.jme3.asset.AssetKey) method. However, the caching criteria may at some point decide that the asset should be removed from the cache to save memory. In that case, AssetCache.getFromCache(com.jme3.asset.AssetKey) will return null.

Thread-Safe

Specified by:

addToCache in interface AssetCache

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the asset to cache.

Parameters:

key - The asset key that can be used to look up the asset.

obj - The asset data to cache.

registerAssetClone

public <T> void registerAssetClone(AssetKey<T> key,
                                   T clone)

Description copied from interface: AssetCache

This should be called by the asset manager when it has successfully acquired a cached asset (with AssetCache.getFromCache(com.jme3.asset.AssetKey)) and cloned it for use.

Thread-Safe

Specified by:

registerAssetClone in interface AssetCache

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the asset to register.

Parameters:

key - The asset key of the loaded asset (used to retrieve from cache)

clone - The clone of the asset retrieved from the cache.

getFromCache

public <T> T getFromCache(AssetKey<T> key)

Description copied from interface: AssetCache

Retrieves an asset from the cache. It is possible to add an asset to the cache using AssetCache.addToCache(com.jme3.asset.AssetKey, java.lang.Object). The asset may be removed from the cache automatically even if it was added previously, in that case, this method will return null.

Thread-Safe

Specified by:

getFromCache in interface AssetCache

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the asset to retrieve

Parameters:

key - The key used to look up the asset.

Returns:

The asset that was previously cached, or null if not found.

deleteFromCache

public boolean deleteFromCache(AssetKey key)

Description copied from interface: AssetCache

Deletes an asset from the cache.

Thread-Safe

Specified by:

deleteFromCache in interface AssetCache

Parameters:

key - The asset key to find the asset to delete.

Returns:

True if the asset was successfully found in the cache and removed.

clearCache

public void clearCache()

Description copied from interface: AssetCache

Deletes all assets from the cache.

Thread-Safe

Specified by:

clearCache in interface AssetCache

notifyNoAssetClone

public void notifyNoAssetClone()

Description copied from interface: AssetCache

Notifies the cache that even though the methods AssetCache.addToCache(com.jme3.asset.AssetKey, java.lang.Object) or AssetCache.getFromCache(com.jme3.asset.AssetKey) were used, there won't be a call to AssetCache.registerAssetClone(com.jme3.asset.AssetKey, java.lang.Object) for some reason. For example, if an error occurred during loading or if the addToCache/getFromCache were used from user code.

Specified by:
