StelTextureSP StelTextureMgr::createTexture	(	const QString &	filename,
		const StelTexture::StelTextureParams &	params = StelTexture::StelTextureParams()
	)

Load an image from a file and create a new texture from it.

Parameters:

filename	the texture file name, can be absolute path if starts with '/' otherwise the file will be looked in stellarium standard textures directories.
params	the texture creation parameters.

StelTextureSP StelTextureMgr::createTextureThread	(	const QString &	url,
		const StelTexture::StelTextureParams &	params = StelTexture::StelTextureParams(),
		const QString &	fileExtension = QString(),
		bool	lazyLoading = true
	)

Load an image from a file and create a new texture from it in a new thread.

Parameters:

url	the texture file name or URL, can be absolute path if starts with '/' otherwise the file will be looked in stellarium standard textures directories.
params	the texture creation parameters.
fileExtension	the file extension to assume. If not set the extension is determined from url
lazyLoading	define whether the texture should be actually loaded only when needed, i.e. when bind() is called the first time.

void StelTextureMgr::init

(

)

Initialize some variable from the openGL contex.

Must be called after the creation of the GLContext.
