In-Depth Information
The
sf::Sound
class has another feature, which is utilized by calling
Sound::setPlayingOffset()
. The method takes
sf::Time
and sets the playing
position to that time. It can be used in both paused and playing state.
There is something important that we need to talk about in more detail and that is resource
management. As it is, with the
Texture
and
Sprite
classes, the
SoundBuffer
in-
stance has to be alive and stay in the same memory location while
Sound
is using it. To
easily manage the lifetime of a
sf::Texture
object, we used our
AssetManager
class, and we will do the same for
SoundBuffer
.
