declare_scalar()

ScalarRef MayaFlux::Buffers::VolumeGridBuffer::declare_scalar	(	std::string	name,
		Kinesis::LatticeSemantics	semantics = {}
	)

Declare a double-buffered scalar field.

Parameters

name	Lookup key, unique within this volume.
semantics	What the values mean. Carried for consumers that resample or write the field; nothing in this class reads it.

Returns

Ref naming the field, or a ref with an empty name if the declaration was rejected.
