What is the best method for getting a list of material names

[snipexv]

Hi!
What is the best , or is there a, method for getting a list of all of the materials loaded into ogre. I tried using :
Ogre::MaterialManager::getSingleton().getResourceIterator().getNext()->getName();. But this returns "DefualtSettings." Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

No, that's the best way to do it. There happens to be a material called 'DefaultSettings' which is what all materials get initialised with. Keep iterating and you'll find all the other materials right there.

here is an example:

Code: Select all

  Ogre::ResourceManager::ResourceMapIterator materialIterator =
    Ogre::MaterialManager::getSingleton().getResourceIterator();

  while (materialIterator.hasMoreElements())
  {
      cbobox->addItem(nfz::createListItem( static_cast<Ogre::MaterialPtr>
        (materialIterator.peekNextValue())->getName(), 0));

      materialIterator.moveNext();
  }
