Package nl.colorize.multimedialib.scene

Interface Scene

  • All Superinterfaces:
    Renderable, Updatable
    All Known Implementing Classes:
    Button, ComplexScene, DemoApplication, EffectManager, Form, SelectBox, TextField, TextLabel, Widget
    public interface Scene
extends Updatable, Renderable
    Represents a discrete part or phase of an application, that is active for some period of time. Simple applications might consist of a single scene, complex applications can have dozens. Scenes can contain logic, rendering, though they will typically do both.

    Scenes will receive updates at various points throughout their life cycle: when the scene is started (which can occur multiple times depending on the application flow), and then frame updates and rendering when the scene is active.
