Package spyre :: Module spyre :: Class Light

Type Light

object --+
         |
        Light

Implements each light. This class is concrete, so can be used to create light instances, but the subclasses may be more intuitive.

You can create any number of lights, but only 8 can be on at a time.

Method Summary
	`on(self)` Turn light on
	`off(self)` Turn light off
	`display(self)` Push light params through to OpenGL
	`setPosition(self, position)` Change position value.
	`__init__(self, ambient, diffuse, specular, position)` Initialize new instance.
	`__del__(self)` Turn light off on destruction.
	`update(self)` updates light
Inherited from object
	`__delattr__(...)` x.__delattr__('name') <==> del x.name
	`__getattribute__(...)` x.__getattribute__('name') <==> x.name
	`__hash__(x)` x.__hash__() <==> hash(x)
	`__new__(T, S, ...)` T.__new__(S, ...) -> a new object with type S, a subtype of T
	`__reduce__(...)` helper for pickle
	`__reduce_ex__(...)` helper for pickle
	`__repr__(x)` x.__repr__() <==> repr(x)
	`__setattr__(...)` x.__setattr__('name', value) <==> x.name = value
	`__str__(x)` x.__str__() <==> str(x)
