class csGraphics2DOpenGLFontServer

This class contains basic code to read font information and build appropriate bitmaps in OpenGL

Public Methods
void AddFont(FontDef &addme): Add more fonts to the font server by passing FontDef's into this method
int CountFonts(): Check how many fonts are stored in here
csGraphics2DOpenGLFontServer(FontDef *startfont = NULL): The font server starts with 0 fonts in it, but you can pass one in immediately to the constructor and start with one font
void WriteCharacter(char writeme, int fontnumber = 0): Draw a single character using OpenGL
void WriteCharacters(char *writeme, int fontnumber = 0): Draw a string using OpenGL
~csGraphics2DOpenGLFontServer(): Destructor cleans up all the OpenGL mess we left around

Private Fields
int Font_Count: number of fonts currently stored here
GLuint* Font_Offsets: each font is stored as a set of opengl display lists, one per character

Private Methods
void BuildFont(FontDef &newfont): Build a font from font data

Documentation

This class contains basic code to read font information and build appropriate bitmaps in OpenGL. It acts as a GL 'font server'. You add a font by passing in a FontDef struct (see graph2d.h), and the server will add it to the list of fonts. Destruction of the server will free up all the bitmaps currently in use. To write a series of characters, set the color and position using glColor(r,g,b) and glRasterPos2i(x,y) Note that the raster position points to the lower left corner of the first character! Then call WriteChars() with the string to print. If you want to use a different font than the default font (the first font built in the server) there exists a version of WriteChars() for that as well

int Font_Count

number of fonts currently stored here

GLuint* Font_Offsets

each font is stored as a set of opengl display lists, one per character. Each display list, or character, has a number; the number of the first character for each font is stored here

void BuildFont(FontDef &newfont)

Build a font from font data

csGraphics2DOpenGLFontServer(FontDef *startfont = NULL)

The font server starts with 0 fonts in it, but you can pass one in immediately to the constructor and start with one font. Additional fonts must be added via AddFont()

void AddFont(FontDef &addme)
