Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BALL::TriangulatedSphere::TriangulatedSphere

(

)

Default constructor.

This method creates a new TriangulatedSphere object.

BALL::TriangulatedSphere::TriangulatedSphere	(	const TriangulatedSphere &	sphere,
		bool	= true
	)

Copy constructor.

Create a new TriangulatedSphere object from another.

Parameters:

	sphere	the TriangulatedSphere object to be copied
	bool	ignored - just for interface consistency

virtual BALL::TriangulatedSphere::~TriangulatedSphere

(

)

[virtual]

Destructor.

Destructs the TriangulatedSphere object.

Member Function Documentation

void BALL::TriangulatedSphere::icosaeder

(

bool

out = true

)

Build an icosaeder.

If the TriangulatedSphere is not empty, it will be cleared first. The center of the icosaeder will be the origin, the radius will be 1.

Parameters:

out

if out = true the normal vectors will be oriented outside, otherwise they will be oriented inside

TriangulatedSphere& BALL::TriangulatedSphere::operator=

(

const TriangulatedSphere &

sphere

)

Assign from another TriangulatedSphere.

Parameters:

sphere

the TriangulatedSphere object to assign from

void BALL::TriangulatedSphere::pentakisDodecaeder

(

bool

out = true

)

Build a pentakis dodecaeder.

If the TriangulatedSphere is not empty, it will be cleared first. The center of the dodecaeder will be the origin, the radius will be 1.

Parameters:

out

if out = true the normal vectors will be oriented outside, otherwise they will be oriented inside

void BALL::TriangulatedSphere::refine	(	Position	iterations,
		bool	out = true
	)

Refine a triangulated sphere.

The center of the sphere must be the origin, the radius must be 1.

Parameters:

	iterations	the number of refinement iterations
	out	the orientation of the normal vectors

void BALL::TriangulatedSphere::set	(	const TriangulatedSphere &	sphere,
		bool	= true
	)

Assign from another TriangulatedSphere.

Parameters:

	sphere	the TriangulatedSphere object to assign from
	bool	ignored - just for interface consistency
