Detailed Description

The ImplicitFunction Class.

The ImplicitFunction class represents the super class for all classes that represent the mathematical formulation of an implicit function. It defines the virtual methods that need to be implemented in order for the SurfaceGenerator to calculate the iso surface.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ImplicitFunction::ImplicitFunction (  float  w  )

The Constructor. Constructs a new ImplicitFunction Parameters: w  - the weight of this ImplicitFunction Definition at line 9 of file ImplicitFunction.cpp. References weight.

virtual ImplicitFunction::~ImplicitFunction (   )  [inline, virtual]

The Destructor. Destructs this ImplicitFunction Definition at line 40 of file ImplicitFunction.h.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void ImplicitFunction::applyMatrix (  MTransformationMatrix  matrix  )  [pure virtual]

An abstract Function. Applies the given Transformation matrix in order to update the location in 3D space where to calculate the implicit function value. This enables the ImplicitFunctions to be moved around in the Maya view port. Parameters: matrix  - the new TransformationMatrix Implemented in ImplicitSphere.

virtual float ImplicitFunction::implicitValue (  MPoint  p  )  [pure virtual]

An abstract Function. Return the implicit function value for this ImplicitFunction for the given point p. Parameters: p  - the point in 3D space to test Returns: - the calculate implicit function value Implemented in ImplicitSphere.

virtual bool ImplicitFunction::testInfluance (  MPoint  p  )  [pure virtual]

An abstract Function. Returns if the given point p is within the influence radius of this ImplicitFunction. Parameters: p  - the point in 3D space to test Returns: -returns true if inside the implicit function radius. false otherwise Implemented in ImplicitSphere.
