Public Member Functions
void	Render (List< char[]> display, int offset_x, int image_width, int image_height, int position_x, int position_y)
	Render the image associated with this flyweight instance into the given display at the given position.

Package Functions
	Flyweight_Class (BigResource resource, Flyweight_Context context)
	Constructor (accessible only to the class factory).

Properties
Flyweight_Context	Context `[get, set]`
	Retrieve or set the context for this class instance.

int	ImageWidth `[get]`
	Retrieve the "image" width from underlying big resource.

int	ImageHeight `[get]`
	Retrieve the "image" height from underlying big resource.

Private Attributes
BigResource	_resource
	The big resource being referenced by this flyweight class. In C#, a class is always a reference to an instance of the class so we take advantage of that here. In other languages, this would be a pointer to the big resource or a handle from which a pointer could be obtained.

Flyweight_Context	_context
	The context associated with this class. The calling entity uses this context to manipulate the flyweight class.

Detailed Description

Associates a context with a big resource.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Flyweight_Class()

Flyweight_Class	(	BigResource	resource,
		Flyweight_Context	context
	)

inlinepackage

Constructor (accessible only to the class factory).

Parameters

resource	The resource being represented by this class. This takes advantage of the fact that C# classes are always passed by reference so no actual copying of the resource is done.
context	A Flyweight_Context instance containing the context for this Flyweight_Class instance.

◆ Render()

void Render	(	List< char[]>	display,
		int	offset_x,
		int	image_width,
		int	image_height,
		int	position_x,
		int	position_y
	)

inline

Render the image associated with this flyweight instance into the given display at the given position.

Parameters

display	A list of character arrays representing the display.
offset_x	Offset from left edge of big resource to the left edge of the image to render.
image_width	Width of image to render.
image_height	Height of image to render.
position_x	leftmost position within the display to place the upper left corner of the image,
position_y	topmost position within the display to place the upper left corner of the image.

Note that although this class has access to the context, it really shouldn't so as to keep a loose coupling between the context and this class. Therefore, the entity calling Render() will pass the position in as parameters even though that position is likely coming from the context.
