cocos2dx学习笔记之SpriteBatchNode应用

SpriteBatchNode类应用情况：当需要绘制多个纹理，层级相同的精灵时

SpriteBatchNode类应用好处：提高渲染效率，减少帧绘制时间，相同的精灵越多，效果越明显

假设有个绘制1000个相同精灵的需求，首先当不使用SpriteBatchNode绘制这1000个精灵时的代码和运行效果如下：

bool HelloWorld::init()
{
    if ( !Layer::init() )
    {
        return false;
    }
    
	Size visibleSize = Director::getInstance()->getVisibleSize();
	for (int i = 0; i<1000; ++i)
	{
		Sprite* sprite = Sprite::create("tree64.png");
		sprite->setPosition(ccp(CCRANDOM_0_1() * visibleSize.width, CCRANDOM_0_1() * visibleSize.height));
		this->addChild(sprite);
	}

    return true;
}

这里解释一下这3行参数，第一行表示绘制的顶点个数，第二行表示渲染批次，第三行表示帧率和每帧绘制消耗的秒数。可以看到即使在不用SpriteBatchNode的情况下，3.0后的引擎依然会在一次渲染中把相同精灵绘制出来，那么还是否需要用SpriteBatchNode呢？接下来看使用SpriteBatchNode的情况：

bool HelloWorld::init()
{
    if ( !Layer::init() )
    {
        return false;
    }
    
	Size visibleSize = Director::getInstance()->getVisibleSize();
	
	SpriteBatchNode* batchNode = SpriteBatchNode::create("tree64.png");
	this->addChild(batchNode);
	for (int i = 0; i<1000; ++i)
	{
		Sprite* sprite = Sprite::create("tree64.png");
		sprite->setPosition(ccp(CCRANDOM_0_1() * visibleSize.width, CCRANDOM_0_1() * visibleSize.height));
		batchNode->addChild(sprite);
	}
    return true;
}

可以看到当使用SpriteBatchNode时，每帧的绘制时间会有所降低，相同精灵越多效果越明显

最后附上在CCSprite.h和CCSpriteBatchNode.h中，关于SpriteBatchNode的介绍：

 *  To gain an additional 5% ~ 10% more in the rendering, you can parent your sprites into a `SpriteBatchNode`.
 *  But doing so carries the following limitations:
 *
 *  - The Alias/Antialias property belongs to `SpriteBatchNode`, so you can't individually set the aliased property.
 *  - The Blending function property belongs to `SpriteBatchNode`, so you can't individually set the blending function property.
 *  - `ParallaxNode` is not supported, but can be simulated with a "proxy" sprite.
 *  - Sprites can only have other Sprites (or subclasses of Sprite) as children.

/** SpriteBatchNode is like a batch node: if it contains children, it will draw them in 1 single OpenGL call
 * (often known as "batch draw").
 *
 * A SpriteBatchNode can reference one and only one texture (one image file, one texture atlas).
 * Only the Sprites that are contained in that texture can be added to the SpriteBatchNode.
 * All Sprites added to a SpriteBatchNode are drawn in one OpenGL ES draw call.
 * If the Sprites are not added to a SpriteBatchNode then an OpenGL ES draw call will be needed for each one, which is less efficient.
 *
 *
 * Limitations:
 *  - The only object that is accepted as child (or grandchild, grand-grandchild, etc...) is Sprite or any subclass of Sprite. eg: particles, labels and layer can't be added to a SpriteBatchNode.
 *  - Either all its children are Aliased or Antialiased. It can't be a mix. This is because "alias" is a property of the texture, and all the sprites share the same texture.
