Detailed Description

The SbVec4d class is a 4 dimensional vector with double precision floating point coordinates.

This vector class is not by many other classes in Coin. It provides storage for a 3 dimensional homogeneous vector (with the 4 components usually referred to as <x, y, z, w>) as well as simple double precision floating point arithmetic operations.

SbVec4d() [2/7]

SbVec4d::SbVec4d ( const double v[4] )

inline

Constructs an SbVec4d instance with initial values from v.

SbVec4d() [3/7]

SbVec4d::SbVec4d ( double x, double y, double z, double w )

inline

Constructs an SbVec4d instance with the initial homogeneous vector set to <x,y,z,w>.

SbVec4d::SbVec4d ( const SbVec4f & v )

inlineexplicit

Member Function Documentation

dot()

double SbVec4d::dot ( const SbVec4d & v ) const

inline

Calculates and returns the result of taking the dot product of this vector and v.

equals()

SbBool SbVec4d::equals	(	const SbVec4d &	v,
		double	tolerance ) const

Compares the vector with v and returns TRUE if the distance between the vectors is smaller or equal to the square root of tolerance.

The comparison is done in 4D-space, i.e. the w component of the vector is not used to make x, y and z into Cartesian coordinates first.

getReal()

void SbVec4d::getReal

(

SbVec3d &

v

)

const

Returns the vector as a Cartesian 3D vector in v. This means that the 3 first components x, y and z will be divided by the fourth, w.

getValue() [1/2]

void SbVec4d::getValue ( double & x, double & y, double & z, double & w ) const

inline

Returns the x, y, z and w coordinates of the vector.

See also

setValue().

getValue() [2/2]

const double * SbVec4d::getValue ( void ) const

inline

Returns a pointer to an array of four doubles containing the x, y, z and w coordinates of the vector.

See also

setValue().

length()

double SbVec4d::length

(

void

)

const

Return the length of the vector in 4D space.

negate()

void SbVec4d::negate ( void )

inline

Negate the vector.

normalize()

double SbVec4d::normalize

(

void

)

Normalize the vector to unit length. Return value is the original length of the vector before normalization.

operator*=()

SbVec4d & SbVec4d::operator*= ( double d )

inline

Multiply components of vector with value d. Returns reference to self.

operator+=()

SbVec4d & SbVec4d::operator+= ( const SbVec4d & v )

inline

Adds this vector and vector v. Returns reference to self.

operator-()

SbVec4d SbVec4d::operator- ( void ) const

inline

Non-destructive negation operator. Returns a new SbVec4d instance which has all components negated.

See also

negate().

operator-=()

SbVec4d & SbVec4d::operator-= ( const SbVec4d & v )

inline

Subtracts vector v from this vector. Returns reference to self.

inline

Index operator. Returns modifiable x, y, z or w component of vector.

See also

getValue() and setValue().

operator[]() [2/2]

const double & SbVec4d::operator[] ( int i ) const

inline

Index operator. Returns x, y, z or w component of vector.

See also

getValue() and setValue().

FILE *

fp

)

const
