Field Detail

debugRegionManagement

public static boolean debugRegionManagement

Set to true to display clip bounds boxes.

debugPaintCalls

public static boolean debugPaintCalls

Set to true if you want to display common errors with painting and threading.

debugPrintFrameRate

public static boolean debugPrintFrameRate

Set to true to display frame rate in the console.

debugPrintUsedMemory

public static boolean debugPrintUsedMemory

Set to true to display used memory in console.

debugBounds

public static boolean debugBounds

Displays bounding boxes around nodes. Used in PCamera.

debugFullBounds

public static boolean debugFullBounds

Displays a tint to all shapes within a bounding box.

debugThreads

public static boolean debugThreads

Whether to complain whenever common threading issues occur.

printResultsFrameRate

public static int printResultsFrameRate

How often in frames result info should be printed to the console.

Method Detail

getDebugPaintColor

public static Color getDebugPaintColor()

Generates a color for use while debugging.

Returns:

a color for use while debugging.

scheduleProcessInputs

public static void scheduleProcessInputs()

Checks that process inputs is being doing from the Swing Dispatch Thread.

processRepaint

public static void processRepaint()

Ensures that painting is not invalidating paint regions and that it's being called from the dispatch thread.

getProcessingOutput

public static boolean getProcessingOutput()

Returns whether output is being processed.

Returns:

whether output is being processed

startProcessingOutput

public static void startProcessingOutput()

Records that processing of ouptut has begun.

endProcessingOutput

public static void endProcessingOutput(Graphics g)

Flags processing of output as finished. Updates all stats in the process.

Parameters:

g - graphics context in which processing has finished

startProcessingInput

public static void startProcessingInput()

Records that processing of input has started.

endProcessingInput

public static void endProcessingInput()

Records that processing of input has finished.

getTotalFPS

public static double getTotalFPS()

Return how many frames are processed and painted per second. Note that since piccolo doesn't paint continuously this rate will be slow unless you are interacting with the system or have activities scheduled.

Returns:

frame rate achieved

getInputFPS

public static double getInputFPS()

Return the frames per second used to process input events and activities.

Returns:

# of frames per second that were allocated to processing input

getOutputFPS

public static double getOutputFPS()

Return the frames per seconds used to paint graphics to the screen.

Returns:

# of frames per second that were used up to processing output

getFramesProcessed

public long getFramesProcessed()

Return the number of frames that have been processed since the last time resetFPSTiming was called.

Returns:

total number of frames processed

resetFPSTiming

public static void resetFPSTiming()

Reset the variables used to track FPS. If you reset seldom they you will get good average FPS values, if you reset more often only the frames recorded after the last reset will be taken into consideration.

getApproximateUsedMemory

public static long getApproximateUsedMemory()

Returns an approximation of the amount of memory that is being used. Not that this call might affecting timings.

Returns:

approximate # of bytes of memory used
