digitalmars.D.learn - [Dgame] Sprite loading and setting position in another class
So I've been using Dgame to learn about game development and I'm
having an error when I'm trying to set a sprite's position
initialized and stored in another class.
Basically my code is:
//Texman.d//////////////////////////////////////
Class Texman
{
//variables
void addSprite(string sprite_file, string name)
{
Surface wiki_img = Surface(sprite_file);
Texture wiki_tex = Texture(wiki_img);
sprite_list[name] = new Sprite(wiki_tex);
sprite_list[name].setPosition(1,1); //tried to
remedy by this
}
}
//GameObject.d////////////////////////////
class GameObject
{
Sprite sprite;
float location_x;
float location_y;
//other variables
void setLocation(float x, float y)
{
sprite.setPosition(x,y);
location_x = x;
location_y = y;
}
}
//main.d/////////////////////////////////
void create()
{
wnd = Window(1024, 720, "Dgame Test");
sample_object = new GameObject();
texman = new TextureManager();
texman.addSprite("images.png", "kirino");
sample_object.setSprite(texman.getSprite("kirino"));
sample_object.setLocation(500,500);
}
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////
And I'm having an error namely
"First-chance exception: core.exception.AssertError null"
pointing at the setLocation on GameObject.d.
I tried to remove the "setLocation" method and tried to set
Location on TextureManager itself and it worked.
So is setting the position of a sprite outside of the class it
initialized into forbidden, or am I doing something wrong here?

You have to store your Texture. See "My Sprite is only a white
Rectangle" on http://dgame-dev.de/index.php?controller=faq
I'll change that with v0.7, so that Sprite will manage the
Texture by himself.

"Namespace" <rswhite4 gmail.com> Note that Texture is (in constrast to Sprite) a struct and not a class, so it is a value type. Dgame tries to use as many value types as possible to reduce the amount of garbage.

Thank you for answering so quickly. If you don't mind me asking when will v0.7 be out?Not so soon. But maybe I'll release v0.6.5 with this feature at the end of september. For now you need to store your Texture in e.g. a Texture manager.
