Inheritance diagram for TA::PhysicsObject:

Detailed Description

A virtual base class for all object types that can be added to the physics simulation.

TA::StaticObject and TA::DynamicObject are both inherited from this class. TA::Physics provides the functions TA::Physics::AddDynamicObject and TA::Physics::AddStaticObject for adding these objects to the simulation. The function TA::PhysicsObject::AddedToPhysics can be used to determine the objects current state.

Reference Counting:: This class is reference counted. After the object is created it will have a reference count of one. AddRef() and Release() can be called to increment and decrement the reference count. If the reference count is zero after a call to Release() the object will be automatically deleted. Reference counted objects should only be created using new.
