Detailed Description

Mesh class.

An instance of Mesh represents an instance of the geometric representation "mesh".

The class Mesh is derived from the classes GeometricObject and Surface. The data structures defining the mesh are implemented in the class Surface. Therefore one can use this mesh in the same fashion as Surface.

The colors belonging to each vertex. If this list has *less* entries than there are vertices in this mesh, we take the first element to color the whole mesh. If it is *empty*, we use the color white.

virtual void BALL::VIEW::Mesh::clear

(

)

[virtual]

Explicit default initialization.

Calls GeometricObject::clear

Reimplemented from BALL::VIEW::MultiColorExtension.

virtual void BALL::VIEW::Mesh::dump	(	std::ostream &	s = std::cout,
		Size	depth = 0
	)			const [virtual]

Internal value dump.

Dump the current value of this mesh to the output ostream s with dumping depth depth. Calls GeometricObject::dump.

Parameters:

	s	output stream where to output the value of this mesh
	depth	the dumping depth

Reimplemented from BALL::VIEW::MultiColorExtension.

virtual bool BALL::VIEW::Mesh::isValid

(

)

const [virtual]

Internal state and consistency self-validation.

Calls GeometricObject::isValid.

Reimplemented from BALL::VIEW::GeometricObject.

const Mesh& BALL::VIEW::Mesh::operator=

(

const Mesh &

mesh

)

Assignment operator.

Calls set.

void BALL::VIEW::Mesh::swap

(

Mesh &

mesh

)

Swapping of mesh's.

Swap the value of this mesh with the mesh mesh.

Parameters:

mesh

the mesh being swapped with this mesh
