sf::Sound by value
« on: November 10, 2011, 07:52:43 pm »
Hello all,

I just want to verify, SoundBuffer is heavy and should be cached, but sf::Sound itself is light weight and passing it by value should not be a big deal, right?

Yes. However it is not as lightweight as a sf::Sprite or sf::Text. sf::Sound internally manages an OpenAL sound resource, so it's not trivial to copy and destroy.
