Inheritance diagram for plParticleInitializer:

Protected Member Functions
virtual void	Process (plUInt64 uiNumElements) final override
	The actual method which processes the data, will be called with the number of elements to process.
Protected Member Functions inherited from plParticleModule
virtual void	OnReset ()
	Called by Reset()
void	CreateStream (const char *szName, plProcessingStream::DataType Type, plProcessingStream **ppStream, bool bWillInitializeStream)
virtual plResult	UpdateStreamBindings () final override
	Internal method which needs to be implemented, gets the concrete stream bindings. This is called every time the streams are resized. Implementations should check that their required streams exist and are of the correct data types.
plRandom &	GetRNG () const
Protected Member Functions inherited from plProcessingStreamProcessor
virtual void	InitializeElements (plUInt64 uiStartIndex, plUInt64 uiNumElements)=0
	This method needs to be implemented in order to initialize new elements to specific values.

Public Attributes inherited from plProcessingStreamProcessor
float	m_fPriority = 0.0f
	Used for sorting processors, to ensure a certain order. Lower priority == executed first.
Protected Attributes inherited from plProcessingStreamProcessor
plProcessingStreamGroup *	m_pStreamGroup = nullptr
	Back pointer to the stream group - will be set to the owner stream group when adding the stream processor to the group. Can be used to get stream pointers in UpdateStreamBindings();.
