Whilst a few of the general methods have implementations, most of this class is abstract, requiring a subclass based on a specific API to be constructed to provide the full functionality. Note there are 2 levels to the interface - one which will be used often by the caller of the Ogre library, and one which is at a lower level and will be used by the other classes provided by Ogre. These lower level methods are prefixed with '_' to differentiate them. The advanced user of the library may use these lower level methods to access the 3D API at a more fundamental level (dealing direct with render states and rendering primitives), but still benefitting from Ogre's abstraction of exactly which 3D API is in use. @author Steven Streeting @version 1.0 */ class _OgreExport RenderSystem { public: /** Default Constructor. */ RenderSystem(); /** Destructor. */ virtual ~RenderSystem(); /** Returns the name of the rendering system. */ virtual const String& getName(void) const = 0; /** Returns the details of this API's configuration options @remarks Each render system must be able to inform the world of what options must/can be specified for it's operation. @par These are passed as strings for portability, but grouped into a structure (_ConfigOption) which includes both options and current value. @par Note that the settings returned from this call are affected by the options that have been set so far, since some options are interdependent. @par This routine is called automatically by the default configuration dialogue produced by Root::showConfigDialog or may be used by the caller for custom settings dialogs @returns A 'map' of options, i.e. a list of options which is also indexed by option name. */ virtual ConfigOptionMap& getConfigOptions(void) = 0; /** Sets an option for this API @remarks Used to confirm the settings (normally chosen by the user) in order to make the renderer able to initialise with the settings as required.
