[BloodyMess] 1.5.3 ResourceSystem::closeArchive missing?

The function ResourceSystem::closeArchive is declared but not defined in BloodyMess 1.5.3. I assume there are plans to include this in a later release

In the mean time is there an alternative way to unload resources?

Your right, it isn't implemented.

However, Archives use almost nothing in memory and File (assuming your using file) doesn't pre-scan or pre-load anything, unlike Ogre. So it's presence is almost nil. Once you close a resource, it's deleted from the archive anyway, so it's harmless to keep it open during the entire life of your application.

Excellent thanks for the quick reply. I was scared it was going to be a massive memory leak, glad to see I can ignore it for now.

I have been looking further into this and I cannot see an easy way to close a resource via the Archive/ResourceSystem interfaces? The only real solution I can see, without modifying NxOgre, is to store the Archive and Resources seperately to NxOgre and manually destroy them myself.

What I was expecting was something like;
ResourceSystem::getArchive(name)
Archive::getResource(name)

And then use the existing Archive::close(resource) to clean things up.
I will leave this for incase I have missing something really obvious

Looking foreword to your reply
