mattcox / SetCOM.cpp
Created February 15, 2019 15:27
Demonstrates how to implement a custom Polymorph object that implements the SetCOM method. When the COM object is allocated, the SetCOM method will be passed a copy of the object, which can be useful if the allocated object needs passing to additional methods from within the COM implementation. Note: As the COM object is maintaining a pointer to…

public CLxImpl_Foo

This demonstrates how to evaluate a particle source for it's particles. By default, only position, transform and ID are evaluated, however it could easily be extended to support other types.
