Revised approach involves creating a helper function within ShapeFactory to aid
in devising the ShapeType to be used by an ShapeEntityItem for collision. The
ShapeFactory is currently doing this for creating the actual Bullet Library
collision shapes.
ShapeEntityItem overrides its virtually inherited computeShapeInfo which
in turn calls the new ShapeFactory helper function.
ShapeEntityItem has a new memvar _collisionShapeType to cache its actual
ShapeType used by the physics system. This memvar is returned via the getShapeType
accessor which is expected to return an object's ShapeType.
Note(s):
This is similar to the original approach save translation between entity::Shape and ShapeType
isn't tied to the EntityItemProperties shapeTypeNames or shapeType. This approach more
directly solves the issue of getting the actual ShapeType used by the time it's needed
to determine the bullet collision object type created when initializing the physic information.
Translation of the ShapeEntityItem's entity::Shape to its ShapeType is handled by
ShapeFactory which handles creating the bullet collision objects when setting up
physics on the ShapeEntityItems.
Known Issue(s):
This doesn't compile. It appears that the Entity Library needs to know about
the Physics Library. The naive attempt at providing that link failed to resolve
all compilation issues.
