ClientBase
from panda3d.core import ClientBase
- class ClientBase
Bases:
TypedReferenceCountAn abstract base class for a family of client device interfaces–including trackers, buttons, dials, and other analog inputs.
This provides a common interface to connect to such devices and extract their data; it is used by TrackerNode etc. to put these devices in the data graph.

Forks a separate thread to do all the polling of connected devices. The

true if the fork was successful, or false otherwise (for instance, because
we were already forked, or because asynchronous threads are disabled).
