Constructor & Destructor Documentation

LineSegment() [1/3]

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

template<int Dim_ = Dim, typename std::enable_if< Dim_==2, int >::type = 0>

vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::LineSegment

(

)

Construct a default segment from (0,0) to (1,0).

LineSegment() [2/3]

vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::LineSegment

(

)

Construct a default segment from (0,0,0) to (1,0,0).

LineSegment() [3/3]

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

Member Function Documentation

Center()

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

Vector vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::Center ( ) const

inline

Return the midpoint of the line segment.

Direction()

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

Vector vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::Direction ( ) const

inline

Return the vector pointing to endpoint 1 from endpoint 0.

This vector is not of unit length and in the case of degenerate lines, may have zero length. Call vtkm::Normal() on the return value if you want a normalized result.

DistanceTo() [1/2]

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

CoordType vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::DistanceTo

(

const Vector &

point

)

const

Return the minmum distance from point to this line segment.

Note that when the endpoints are coincident, this simplifies the distance between point and either endpoint. Otherwise, the distance returned is either the perpendicular distance from point to the line segment or the distance to the nearest endpoint (whichever is smaller).

DistanceTo() [2/2]

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

CoordType vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::DistanceTo	(	const Vector &	point,
		CoordType &	param,
		Vector &	projectedPoint
	)		const

Return the minimum distance between the line segment and point.

Evaluate()

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

Vector vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::Evaluate

(

CoordType

param

)

const

Compute a point along the line. param values in [0,1] lie on the line segment.

IntersectInfinite()

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

template<int Dim_ = Dim, typename std::enable_if< Dim_==2, int >::type = 0>

bool vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::IntersectInfinite	(	const LineSegment< CoordType, Dim > &	other,
		Vector &	point,
		CoordType	tol = 0.f
	)

Compute the non-degenerate point where two (infinite) 2-D line segments intersect, or return false.

If true is returned, then the lines intersect in a unique point and point is set to that location.

If false is returned, then the lines are parallel and either they are coincident (intersect everywhere) or offset (intersect nowhere).

The tolerance tol is the minimum acceptable denominator used to compute the intersection point coordinates and thus dictates the maximum distance from the segments at which intersections will be reported as valid.

IsSingular()

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

bool vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::IsSingular

(

CoordType

tol2 = static_cast< CoordType >(1.0e-6f)

)

const

Return whether this line segment has an infinitesimal extent (i.e., whether the endpoints are coincident)

PerpendicularBisector() [1/2]

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

template<int Dim_ = Dim, typename std::enable_if< Dim_==3, int >::type = 0>

Plane<CoordType> vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::PerpendicularBisector

(

)

const

Construct a plane bisecting this line segment (only when Dimension is 3).

PerpendicularBisector() [2/2]

template<typename CoordType = vtkm::FloatDefault, int Dim = 3>

template<int Dim_ = Dim, typename std::enable_if< Dim_==2, int >::type = 0>

Ray<CoordType, Dim, true> vtkm::LineSegment< CoordType, Dim >::PerpendicularBisector

(

)

const

Construct a perpendicular bisector to this line segment (only when Dimension is 2).
