TypedWritableReferenceCount

from panda3d.core import TypedWritableReferenceCount

class TypedWritableReferenceCount

Bases: TypedWritable, ReferenceCount

A base class for things which need to inherit from both TypedWritable and from ReferenceCount. It’s convenient to define this intermediate base class instead of multiply inheriting from the two classes each time they are needed, so that we can sensibly pass around pointers to things which are both TypedWritables and ReferenceCounters.

See also TypedObject for detailed instructions.

static decodeFromBamStream(data: bytes, reader: BamReader) → TypedWritableReferenceCount

Reads the bytes created by a previous call to encodeToBamStream(), and extracts and returns the single object on those bytes. Returns NULL on error.

This method is intended to replace decodeRawFromBamStream() when you know the stream in question returns an object of type TypedWritableReferenceCount, allowing for easier reference count management. Note that the caller is still responsible for maintaining the reference count on the return value.
