Detailed Description

template<class T>
class nirt::core::plane3d< T >

Template plane class with some intersection testing methods.

It has to be ensured, that the normal is always normalized. The constructors and setters of this class will not ensure this automatically. So any normal passed in has to be normalized in advance. No change to the normal will be made by any of the class methods.

Member Function Documentation

◆ classifyPointRelation()

template<class T >

EIntersectionRelation3D nirt::core::plane3d< T >::classifyPointRelation ( const vector3d< T > & point ) const

inline

Classifies the relation of a point to this plane.

Parameters

point Point to classify its relation.

Returns: ISREL3D_FRONT if the point is in front of the plane, ISREL3D_BACK if the point is behind of the plane, and ISREL3D_PLANAR if the point is within the plane.

◆ existsIntersection()

template<class T >

bool nirt::core::plane3d< T >::existsIntersection ( const plane3d< T > & other ) const

inline

Tests if there is an intersection with the other plane.

Returns: True if there is a intersection.

◆ getDistanceTo()

template<class T >

T nirt::core::plane3d< T >::getDistanceTo ( const vector3d< T > & point ) const

inline

Get the distance to a point.

Note that this only works if the normal is normalized.

◆ getIntersectionWithLimitedLine()

template<class T >

bool nirt::core::plane3d< T >::getIntersectionWithLimitedLine	(	const vector3d< T > &	linePoint1,
		const vector3d< T > &	linePoint2,
		vector3d< T > &	outIntersection
	)		const

inline

Get an intersection with a 3d line, limited between two 3d points.

Parameters

linePoint1	Point 1 of the line.
linePoint2	Point 2 of the line.
outIntersection	Place to store the intersection point, if there is one.

Returns: True if there was an intersection, false if there was not.

◆ getIntersectionWithLine()

template<class T >

bool nirt::core::plane3d< T >::getIntersectionWithLine	(	const vector3d< T > &	linePoint,
		const vector3d< T > &	lineVect,
		vector3d< T > &	outIntersection
	)		const

inline

Get an intersection with a 3d line.

Parameters

lineVect	Vector of the line to intersect with.
linePoint	Point of the line to intersect with.
outIntersection	Place to store the intersection point, if there is one.

Returns: True if there was an intersection, false if there was not.

◆ getIntersectionWithPlane()

template<class T >

bool nirt::core::plane3d< T >::getIntersectionWithPlane	(	const plane3d< T > &	other,
		vector3d< T > &	outLinePoint,
		vector3d< T > &	outLineVect
	)		const

inline

Intersects this plane with another.

Parameters

other	Other plane to intersect with.
outLinePoint	Base point of intersection line.
outLineVect	Vector of intersection.

Returns: True if there is a intersection, false if not.

◆ getKnownIntersectionWithLine()

template<class T >

f32 nirt::core::plane3d< T >::getKnownIntersectionWithLine	(	const vector3d< T > &	linePoint1,
		const vector3d< T > &	linePoint2
	)		const

inline

Get percentage of line between two points where an intersection with this plane happens.

Only useful if known that there is an intersection.

Parameters

linePoint1	Point1 of the line to intersect with.
linePoint2	Point2 of the line to intersect with.

Returns: Where on a line between two points an intersection with this plane happened. For example, 0.5 is returned if the intersection happened exactly in the middle of the two points.

◆ isFrontFacing()

template<class T >

bool nirt::core::plane3d< T >::isFrontFacing ( const vector3d< T > & lookDirection ) const

inline

Test if the triangle would be front or backfacing from any point.

Thus, this method assumes a camera position from which the triangle is definitely visible when looking into the given direction. Note that this only works if the normal is Normalized. Do not use this method with points as it will give wrong results!

Parameters

lookDirection Look direction.

Returns: True if the plane is front facing and false if it is backfacing.
