Can We Retrieve from Database???

By kevinshah27 on Wed, 06/20/2012 - 17:10
Hello Suppose say i am using many trackers (say 100 or more)...Now if all the textures for the trackers are loaded in the app itself than it would occupy much space...so one alternate is to use database.. Whether it is possible to store the texture .png files in the database and retrieve it when the texture is viewed?? I am not sure whether it is feasible... Pls guide... Regards Kevin

I'm not sure if this is the best way (or even a good way) but I have done something similar by loading only a small (2^2, 2^3) transparent texture then making calls through to Java to load a texture when a particular trackable is in view.

Hi,

it should be perfectly possible to retrieve images from a database and generate a texture out of it;

No problem gun0051,

that should be perfectly possible on iOS too; however I would invite you to create a new Thread and post this question on the iOS section of this Forum, as here it is Android specific.

You will get prompt reply there.

Thanks.
