Vec is used as a parameter and return type by many methods of the library. It provides classical algebraic computational methods and is compatible with OpenGL:
// Draws a point located at 3.0 OpenGL units in front of the camera Vec pos = camera()->position() + 3.0 * camera()->viewDirection(); glBegin(GL_POINTS); glVertex3fv(pos); glEnd();
Vec implements a universal explicit converter, based on the [] operator. Everywhere a const Vec& argument is expected, you can use your own vector type instead, as long as it implements this operator (see the Vec(const C& c) documentation).
See also the Quaternion and the Frame documentations.
| Vec | ( | ) |
Default constructor. Value is set to (0,0,0).
| Vec | ( | float | X, | |
| float | Y, | |||
| float | Z | |||
| ) |
Standard constructor with the x, y and z values.
| Vec | ( | const C & | c | ) | [explicit] |
Universal explicit converter from any class to Vec. You can use your own vector class everywhere a const Vec& parameter is required, as long as it implements the operator[ ]:
class MyVec { // ... float operator[](int i) const { returns x, y or z when i=0, 1 or 2; } } MyVec v(...); camera()->setPosition(v);
Note that standard vector types (STL, float[3], ...) implement this operator and can hence be used in place of Vec. See also operator const float*() .
| Vec | ( | const QDomElement & | element | ) | [explicit] |
Constructs a Vec from a QDomElement representing an XML code of the form
< anyTagName x=".." y=".." z=".." />
If one of these attributes is missing or is not a number, a warning is displayed and the associated value is set to 0.0.
See also domElement() and initFromDOMElement().
| QDomElement domElement | ( | const QString & | name, | |
| QDomDocument & | document | |||
| ) | const |
Returns an XML QDomElement that represents the Vec.
name is the name of the QDomElement tag. doc is the QDomDocument factory used to create QDomElement.
When output to a file, the resulting QDomElement will look like:
<name x=".." y=".." z=".." />
Use initFromDOMElement() to restore the Vec state from the resulting QDomElement. See also the Vec(const QDomElement&) constructor.
Here is complete example that creates a QDomDocument and saves it into a file:
Vec sunPos; QDomDocument document("myDocument"); QDomElement sunElement = document.createElement("Sun"); document.appendChild(sunElement); sunElement.setAttribute("brightness", sunBrightness()); sunElement.appendChild(sunPos.domElement("sunPosition", document)); // Other additions to the document hierarchy... // Save doc document QFile f("myFile.xml"); if (f.open(IO_WriteOnly)) { QTextStream out(&f); document.save(out, 2); f.close(); }
See also Quaternion::domElement(), Frame::domElement(), Camera::domElement()...
| void initFromDOMElement | ( | const QDomElement & | element | ) |
Restores the Vec state from a QDomElement created by domElement().
The QDomElement should contain x, y and z attributes. If one of these attributes is missing or is not a number, a warning is displayed and the associated value is set to 0.0.
To restore the Vec state from an xml file, use:
// Load DOM from file QDomDocument doc; QFile f("myFile.xml"); if (f.open(IO_ReadOnly)) { doc.setContent(&f); f.close(); } // Parse the DOM tree and initialize QDomElement main=doc.documentElement(); myVec.initFromDOMElement(main);
See also the Vec(const QDomElement&) constructor.
| float norm | ( | ) | const |
Returns the norm of the vector.
| float normalize | ( | ) |
Normalizes the Vec and returns its original norm.
Normalizing a null vector will result in NaN values.
| operator const float * | ( | ) | const |
Conversion operator returning the memory address of the vector.
Very convenient to pass a Vec pointer as a parameter to OpenGL functions:
Vec pos, normal; glNormal3fv(normal); glVertex3fv(pos);
| operator float * | ( | ) |
Non const conversion operator returning the memory address of the vector.
Useful to pass a Vec to a method that requires and fills a float*, as provided by certain libraries.
| Vec& operator*= | ( | float | k | ) |
Multiply the vector by a scalar k.
| Vec& operator+= | ( | const Vec & | a | ) |
Adds a to the vector.
| Vec& operator-= | ( | const Vec & | a | ) |
Subtracts a to the vector.
| Vec& operator/= | ( | float | k | ) |
Divides the vector by a scalar k.
An absolute k value lower than 1E-10 will print a warning if the library was compiled with the "debug" Qt CONFIG flag. Otherwise, no test is performed for efficiency reasons.
| std::ostream& operator<< | ( | std::ostream & | o, | |
| const qglviewer::Vec & | ||||
| ) |
Output stream operator. Enables debugging code like:
Vec pos(...); cout << "Position=" << pos << endl;
| Vec& operator= | ( | const Vec & | v | ) |
Equal operator.
| float& operator[] | ( | int | i | ) |
Bracket operator returning an l-value. i must range in [0..2].
| float operator[] | ( | int | i | ) | const |
Bracket operator, with a constant return value. i must range in [0..2].
| Vec orthogonalVec | ( | ) | const |
Returns a Vec orthogonal to the Vec. Its norm() depends on the Vec, but is zero only for a null Vec. Note that the function that associates an orthogonalVec() to a Vec is not continous.
| void projectOnAxis | ( | const Vec & | direction | ) |
Projects the Vec on the axis of direction direction that passes through the origin.
direction does not need to be normalized (but must be non null).
| void projectOnPlane | ( | const Vec & | normal | ) |
Projects the Vec on the plane whose normal is normal that passes through the origin.
normal does not need to be normalized (but must be non null).
| void setValue | ( | float | X, | |
| float | Y, | |||
| float | Z | |||
| ) |
Set the current value. May be faster than using operator=() with a temporary Vec(x,y,z).
| float squaredNorm | ( | ) | const |
Returns the squared norm of the Vec.
| Vec unit | ( | ) | const |
Returns a unitary (normalized) representation of the vector. The original Vec is not modified.
| Vec cross | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| const Vec & | b | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Cross product of the two Vec. Mind the order !
| bool operator!= | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| const Vec & | b | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Returns true only when the two vector are not equal (see operator==()).
| float operator* | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| const Vec & | b | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Dot product of the two Vec.
| Vec operator* | ( | float | k, | |
| const Vec & | a | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Returns the product of a scalar with the vector.
| Vec operator* | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| float | k | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Returns the product of the vector with a scalar.
| Vec operator+ | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| const Vec & | b | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Returns the sum of the two vectors.
| Vec operator- | ( | const Vec & | a | ) | [friend] |
Unary minus operator.
| Vec operator- | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| const Vec & | b | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Returns the difference of the two vectors.
| Vec operator/ | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| float | k | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Returns the division of the vector with a scalar.
Too small k values are not tested (unless the library was compiled with the "debug" Qt CONFIG flag) and may result in NaN values.
| bool operator== | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| const Vec & | b | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Returns true when the squaredNorm() of the difference vector is lower than 1E-10.
| Vec operator^ | ( | const Vec & | a, | |
| const Vec & | b | |||
| ) | [friend] |
Cross product of the two vectors. Same as cross().
| float x |
The internal data representation is public. One can use v.x, v.y, v.z. See also operator[]().
| float y |
| float z |
