X File material referencing support fix

[JoeWright]

Here's the code to introduce material referencing in X files (e.g. from Panda Exporter).

In CXFileReader.h somewhere within the class, e.g. after the definition of SXMeshMaterialList:

Code: Select all

	struct SXTemplateMaterial
	{
		core::stringc Name; // template name from X File
		SXMaterial Material; // material
	};

In CXFileReader.h somewhere within the private section of the class:

Code: Select all

	core::array<SXTemplateMaterial> TemplateMaterials; // material array

In CXFileReader::parseDataObject() after the AnimateSet bit:

Code: Select all

	else
	if (objectName == "Material")
	{
		TemplateMaterials.push_back(SXTemplateMaterial());
		TemplateMaterials[TemplateMaterials.size()-1].Name=getNextToken();
		return parseDataObjectMaterial(TemplateMaterials[TemplateMaterials.size()-1].Material);
	}

In CXFileReader::parseDataObjectMeshMaterialList() after the "}" but:

Code: Select all

		else
		if (objectName == "{")
		{
			objectName = getNextToken();
			for (u32 i=0; i<TemplateMaterials.size(); ++i)
				if (TemplateMaterials[i].Name == objectName)
				{
					mlist.Materials.push_back(TemplateMaterials[i].Material);
				}
			getNextToken(); // skip }
		}

Enjoy!

Excuse my ignorance, I am beginer and need some explanations.
Source code files (CXFileReader.h) are inside zipped folder in source directory. What do I have to do? Unzip them and change and zip them again? Update dll? I understand what files and parts of code I have to change but what to do with them to affect my project.

Thanks

As I explained in the thread you created, you need to actually recompile the DLL in order to update the bug fixes.

Nice, thanks for that posting.

Anyone know if this is in nx++, or should I post it up there?
