Class TouchEventPool

java.lang.Object

com.jme3.input.android.TouchEventPool

public class TouchEventPool
extends java.lang.Object

TouchEventPool provides a RingBuffer of jME TouchEvents to help with garbage collection on Android. Each TouchEvent is stored in the RingBuffer and is reused if the TouchEvent has been consumed. If a TouchEvent has not been consumed, it is placed back into the pool at the end for later use. If a TouchEvent has been consumed, it is reused to avoid creating lots of little objects. If the pool is full of unconsumed events, then a new event is created and provided.
