Class AssetManager

java.lang.Object

org.mini2Dx.core.assets.AssetManager

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.mini2Dx.gdx.utils.Disposable

public class AssetManager
extends java.lang.Object
implements org.mini2Dx.gdx.utils.Disposable

Loads and stores game assets such as textures, sounds, etc.

The benefit of using the AssetManager vs. fetching assets manually is dependency management, reference counting and caching.

Some assets will be wrapped in a wrapper class to track references to the asset. Calling dispose() on such assets decreases the reference count. Once references to an asset are at zero, it will be disposed of by the AssetManager.
