Type

Class Overview

Type is an allocation template. It consists of an Element and one or more dimensions. It describes only the layout of memory but does not allocate any storage for the data that is described.

A Type consists of several dimensions. Those are X, Y, Z, LOD (level of detail), Faces (faces of a cube map). The X,Y,Z dimensions can be assigned any positive integral value within the constraints of available memory. A single dimension allocation would have an X dimension of greater than zero while the Y and Z dimensions would be zero to indicate not present. In this regard an allocation of x=10, y=1 would be considered 2 dimensionsal while x=10, y=0 would be considered 1 dimensional.

The LOD and Faces dimensions are booleans to indicate present or not present.

Summary

[Expand] Inherited Methods
From class android.renderscript.BaseObj synchronized void destroy() destroy disconnects the object from the native object effectively rendering this java object dead. boolean equals( Object obj) Compare the current BaseObj with another BaseObj for equality. void finalize() Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable. String getName() int hashCode() Calculates the hash code value for a BaseObj. void setName( String name) setName assigns a name to an object.
From class java.lang.Object Object clone() Creates and returns a copy of this Object. boolean equals( Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal. void finalize() Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable. final Class<?> getClass() Returns the unique instance of Class that represents this object's class. int hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object. final void notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the wait() methods) to be woken up. final void notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the wait() methods) to be woken up. String toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object. final void wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object. final void wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object or until the specified timeout expires. final void wait(long millis) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
