init(url:name:)

Initializes a texture that loads its texel data from a file at the specified URL.

Declaration

init(url URL: URL, name: String?)

Parameters

  • URL:

    The URL from which to load texture data.

  • name:

    The Name property for the new texture object.

Return Value

A new URL-backed texture.

Discussion

This initializer does not load texel data from the URL; the MDLURLTexture class automatically loads data and caches it for reuse when you use one of the MDLTexture methods listed in Accessing Texture Data.
