[xmlvm-users] Define the layerClass on UIView

[Mickael B. <mba...@gm...>]

Hi everyone,

I recently switched to the new C iOS API backend, and it really works well !
I'm currently working at implementing an OpenGLES 2.0 interface for
developing my own custom game renderer, based on what was done before on
the old C API backend.

My main concern is about the way to define the layer class on a UIView. As
you may know, I order to use an OpenGLES 2.0 renderer inside a UIView,
Apple recommend to add this method inside your UIView subclass :

+ (Class) layerClass

{

    return [CAEAGLLayer class];

}


But how to reach the same effect using XMLVM ?
It seems that the UIView implementation is based on a ObjC wrapper class
(UIViewWrapper), but it is generated by XMLVM at XCode project generation,
and it seems I have no way to modify it.
As the method to implement is "static" (class method), I didn't find a way
to "override" it inside my UIView java subclass. Using a delegate method
won't help either.

How can I process to achieve what I want to do ?
Should I do the same way as for the old C iOS API, that's to say duplicate
the UIView class and create a UIViewGL class with specific implementation
using the CAEAGLLayer class ? But then, how can I add the "layerClass"
inside the wrapper implementation, as it is now generated automatically by
the new iOS API ?
