Member Function Documentation

virtual Vector3D computeNormal

(

const Vector3D &

point

)

const [virtual]

Computes the normal for the point.

Parameters:

point

: the point from where the normal is computed

Returns:

the normal vector

Since:

1.02.00

Implements Zone.

virtual bool contains

(

const Vector3D &

point

)

const [virtual]

Checks whether a point is within the Zone.

Parameters:

point

: the point to check

Returns:

true if the point is within the Zone, false otherwise

Implements Zone.

Sphere * create	(	const Vector3D &	position = Vector3D(0.0f,0.0f,0.0f),
		float	radius = 0.0f
	)			[static]

Creates and registers a new Sphere.

Parameters:

	position	: position of the center of the Sphere
	radius	: radius of the Sphere

Returns:

A new registered Sphere

Since:

1.04.00

Definition at line 99 of file SPK_Sphere.h.

virtual void generatePosition	(	Particle &	particle,
		bool	full
	)			const [virtual]

Randomly generates a position inside this Zone for a given Particle.

Parameters:

	particle	: the Particle whose position will be generated
	full	: true to generate a position in the whole volume of this Zone, false to generate a position only at borders

Implements Zone.

float getRadius

(

)

const

Gets the radius of this Sphere.

Returns:

the radius of this Sphere

Definition at line 111 of file SPK_Sphere.h.

virtual bool intersects	(	const Vector3D &	v0,
		const Vector3D &	v1,
		Vector3D *	intersection,
		Vector3D *	normal
	)			const [virtual]

Checks whether a line intersects the Zone.

The intersection is computed only if the Vector3D* intersection is not NULL.
The normal is computed if the Vector3D* normal AND intersection are not NULL.

Parameters:

	v0	: start of the line
	v1	: end of the line
	intersection	: the Vector3D where the intersection will be stored, NULL not to compute the intersection
	normal	: the Vector3D where the normal will be stored, NULL not to compute the normal

Returns:

true if the line intersects with the Zone, false otherwise

Implements Zone.

virtual void moveAtBorder	(	Vector3D &	point,
		bool	inside
	)			const [virtual]

Moves a point at the border of the Zone.

Parameters:

	point	: the point that will be moved to the border of the Zone
	inside	: true to move the point inside the Zone of APPROXIMATION_VALUE, false to move it outside of APPROXIMATION_VALUE

Implements Zone.

void setRadius

(

float

radius

)

Sets the radius of this Sphere.

A negative radius will be clamped to 0.0f and the Sphere will therefore acts as a Point.

Parameters:

radius

: the radius of this Sphere
