Category Class Reference

#include "steam/asset/category.hpp"

Description

Tree like classification of Assets.

By virtue of the Category, Assets can be organised in nested bins (folders). This includes the distinction of different kinds of Assets, like Audio, Video, Effects...

Remarks

the path in the tree constitutes a type classification scheme

Todo:

could be far more elaborate. could be a singleton like centralised tree, while just holding references to Category nodes in the individual Asset. At the moment, we just use the most simplistic implementation and handle Category objects using value semantics.
