Description

Service abstraction within the render engine for generating render jobs.

On interface level, the render engine uses the notion of a calculation stream to represent an ongoing rendering process. Within the implementation of such a process, the Dispatcher is responsible for transforming the generic setup of such a calculation stream into a sequence of concrete jobs, anchored at some distinct point in time.

Todo:

as of 4/2023 a complete rework of the Dispatcher is underway //////////////////////////////////////TICKET #1275

Classes
class	Dispatcher
	Internal abstraction: a service within the engine for translating a logical calculation stream (corresponding to a PlayProcess) into a sequence of individual RenderJob entries for calculations and data access. More...
struct	Dispatcher::PipeFrameTick
	Job-planning Step-1: establish a sequence of frame start times. More...
struct	Dispatcher::PipelineBuilder< SRC >
	A Builder wrapper, allowing to build a Job-planning pipeline step by step, while supplying contextual information from the CalcStream. More...
struct	Dispatcher::PlanningPipeline< PIP >
	A complete job-planning pipeline: this »Lumiera Forward Iterator« drives the actual job-planning process on-demand. More...
