Member Function Documentation

virtual uint32 MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::AddRef (   )  [inline, virtual]

Increments the reference count of the object Reimplemented from TBasicDataExchanger.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::GetFreedomRange (  int16  index, real &  min, real &  max )  const [virtual]

Returns the maximum range of increment and decrement for a given degree of freedom. Parameters: index  The index of the degree of freedom min  The minimum value max  The maximum value Implements I3DExConstraint.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::GetMotionLimit (  int16  index, ELimitType &  limit )  const [virtual]

Returns the constraint for a given degree of freedom. Implements I3DExConstraint.

virtual int16 MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::GetNbrFreedom (   )  const [virtual]

Returns the number of degrees of freedom. Because the freedom value can be limited, you have to give the range of values. This range is defined as a range of increment/decrement around the value. Implements I3DExConstraint.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::GetTransform (  TTransform3D &  transform  )  const [virtual]

Returns the rotation matrix and translation vector due to the freedom values. Note: When the freedom values are initialized the function GetTransform must return the identity matrix for the rotation and a null vector for the translation. Parameters: transform  A reference to a transform. Implements I3DExConstraint.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::GetTransformPartialDerivate (  int16  index, TTransform3D &  transform )  const [virtual]

To allow the inverse kinematics mechanism to work with a constraint, implement the GetTransfromPartialDerivate() function. A partial derivative transformation is a transformation where each element is derived by a freedom degree. Parameters: index  The degree of freedom used to derivate the transform. transform  The partial derivative of the transform. Implements I3DExConstraint.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::GetTransformSecondPartialDerivative (  int16  index1, int16  index2, TTransform3D &  transform )  const [virtual]

Returns the second order partial derivative of the transform. A partial derivative transformation is a transformation where each element is derived by a freedom degree. Parameters: index1  The first degree of freedom used to derivate the transform. index2  The second degree of freedom used to derivate the transform. transform  The partial derivative of the transform. Implements I3DExConstraint.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::IncrementFreedomValue (  int16  index, real &  increment )  [virtual]

Modify the value of a degree of freedom by adding an increment Parameters: index  The degree of freedom See also: EFreedomDegree Parameters: increment  The increment value Implements I3DExConstraint.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::QueryInterface (  const MCIID &  riid, void **  ppvObj )  [virtual]

Check if the object supports a given interface and returns a pointer to that interface if it does. Note that QueryInterface will increment the reference count of the object by one if the interface is found. Parameters: riid  GUID of the interface ppvObj  A pointer to the pointer being returned. Reimplemented from TBasicDataExchanger.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI TBasicConstraint::SetTransform (  TTransform3D &  transform  )  [virtual]

Sets the transformation matrix. Implements I3DExConstraint.
