Detailed Description

A geometry object for rendering static triangle meshes.

A Mesh object is a rigid collection of polygons. It contains vertices representing the positions of the triangles, wedges representing the color and texture-coordinates of the triangles and a list of the triangles themselves. Access to these lists is through their respective iterators.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Q::Mesh::Mesh ( ) [inline]

Create a null mesh reference.

Q::Mesh::Mesh ( const char * name )

Search the currently attached databases for a mesh with the given name.

Member Function Documentation

Utils::Result Q::Mesh::addBox ( Maths::Box3f box,

const Shader & s

) const

Add an axis-aligned box using the shader s to the mesh.

Utils::Result Q::Mesh::addRod ( const Maths::Vec3f & start,

const Maths::Vec3f & end,

float radius,

const Shader & s

) const

Add an approximation of a cylinder of radius radius starting at start and ending at end using the shader s to the mesh.

Mesh Q::Mesh::cast ( const ObjectBase & ) [static]

If the object referenced by obj is a mesh, then return a suitable Mesh reference to the object.

Note:
Casting this object will cause it to be loaded from the database if it is not currently resident.

Reimplemented from Q::Geom.

ClassType Q::Mesh::classType ( ) [static]

Return the type for this class

bool Q::Mesh::collideable ( ) const

Return true if this mesh is collideable. Only collideable meshes can generate collision events. This is actually a logical-or of the values returned by Geom::collidee, Geom::collider and Geom::boundsEvent.

Mesh Q::Mesh::create ( const char * name,

const Database & db = Database()

) [static]

Create a new mesh named name in the given database, db, (or the most recently attached read-write database if db is null). The values of the new object's visible, intersectable, collidee, collider, boundsEvent and lightable flags are set to true.

Mesh Q::Mesh::find ( const char * name ) [static]

Search the currently attached databases for a mesh with the given name and return that object, if it exists.

Utils::Result Q::Mesh::setCollideable ( bool b )

Set the collidability properties (i.e. collidee and collider) of the mesh based on the value of b.
Warning:
This method has no effect.

unsigned int Q::Mesh::triangleCount ( ) const

Return the number of triangles in the mesh.

TriangleIterator Q::Mesh::triangles ( )

Return an iterator that can be used to examine and edit the triangles for a mesh.

unsigned int Q::Mesh::vertexCount ( ) const

Return the number of vertices in the mesh.

VertexIterator Q::Mesh::vertices ( )

Return an iterator that can be used to examine and edit the vertices for a mesh.

unsigned int Q::Mesh::wedgeCount ( ) const

Return the number of wedges in the mesh.

WedgeIterator Q::Mesh::wedges ( )

Return an iterator that can be used to examine and edit the wedges for a mesh.
