| 9 | Cylinder geometry class. |
---|
| 10 | |
---|
| 11 | New in this version: |
---|
| 12 | |
---|
| 13 | Cylinder class implemented as User Geometry Class so it now can be |
---|
| 14 | used with old and new ODE collision detection. |
---|
| 15 | |
---|
| 16 | Cylinder - Ray has been contributed by Olivier Michel. |
---|
| 17 | |
---|
| 18 | THE IDENTIFIER dCylinderClass HAS BEEN REPLACED BY dCylinderClassUser |
---|
| 19 | |
---|
| 20 | to avoid conflict with dCylinderClass in the enum definite in collision.h |
---|
| 21 | |
---|
| 22 | /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// |
---|
| 23 | The dCylinder class includes the following collisions: |
---|
| 24 | |
---|
| 25 | Cylinder - Box |
---|
| 26 | Cylinder - Cylinder |
---|
| 27 | Cylinder - Sphere |
---|
| 28 | Cylinder - Plane |
---|
| 29 | Cylinder - Ray (contributed by Olivier Michel) |
---|
| 30 | |
---|
| 31 | Cylinder aligned along axis - Y when created. (Not like Capped |
---|
| 32 | Cylinder which aligned along axis - Z). |
---|
| 33 | |
---|
| 34 | Interface is just the same as Capped Cylinder has. |
---|
| 35 | |
---|
| 36 | Use functions which have one "C" instead of double "C". |
---|
| 37 | |
---|
| 38 | to create: |
---|
| 39 | dGeomID dCreateCylinder (dSpaceID space, dReal radius, dReal length); |
---|
| 40 | |
---|
| 41 | to set params: |
---|
| 42 | void dGeomCylinderSetParams (dGeomID cylinder, |
---|
| 43 | dReal radius, dReal length); |
---|
| 44 | |
---|
| 45 | |
---|
| 46 | to get params: |
---|
| 47 | void dGeomCylinderGetParams (dGeomID cylinder, |
---|
| 48 | dReal *radius, dReal *length); |
---|
| 49 | |
---|
| 50 | Return in radius and length the parameters of the given cylinder. |
---|
| 51 | |
---|
| 52 | Identification number of the class: |
---|
| 53 | dCylinderClassUser |
---|
| 54 | |
---|
| 55 | I do not include a function that sets inertia tensor for cylinder. |
---|
| 56 | One may use existing ODE functions dMassSetCappedCylinder or dMassSetBox. |
---|
| 57 | To set exact tensor for cylinder use dMassSetParameters. |
---|
| 58 | Remember cylinder aligned along axis - Y. |
