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18 | THE IDENTIFIER dCylinderClass HAS BEEN REPLACED BY dCylinderClassUser |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. |
