Detailed Description

implicit function for a cylinder.

Date:
2000/12/10 20:08:33
Revision:
1.31

vtkCylinder computes the implicit function and function gradient for a cylinder. vtkCylinder is a concrete implementation of vtkImplicitFunction. Cylinder is centered at Center and axes of rotation is along the y-axis. (Use the superclass' vtkImplicitFunction transformation matrix if necessary to reposition.)

Warning:
The cylinder is infinite in extent. To truncate the cylinder use the vtkImplicitBoolean in combination with clipping planes.
Examples:
vtkCylinder (examples)


Member Function Documentation

float vtkCylinder::EvaluateFunction float    x[3] [virtual]
 

Evaluate cylinder equation F(x,y,z) = (x-x0)^2 + (z-z0)^2 - R^2.

Implements vtkImplicitFunction.

void vtkCylinder::EvaluateGradient float    x[3],
float    g[3]
[virtual]
 

Evaluate cylinder function gradient.

Implements vtkImplicitFunction.

virtual const char* vtkCylinder::GetClassName   [virtual]
 

Return the class name as a string. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

virtual int vtkCylinder::IsA const char *    type [virtual]
 

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

int vtkCylinder::IsTypeOf const char *    type [static]
 

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

vtkCylinder* vtkCylinder::New   [static]
 

Construct cylinder radius of 0.5.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

void vtkCylinder::PrintSelf ostream &    os,
vtkIndent    indent
[virtual]
 

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

vtkCylinder* vtkCylinder::SafeDownCast vtkObject   o [static]
 

Will cast the supplied object to vtkObject* is this is a safe operation (i.e., a safe downcast); otherwise NULL is returned. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

virtual void vtkCylinder::SetCenter float   ,
float   ,
float   
[virtual]
 

Set/Get cylinder center

virtual void vtkCylinder::SetRadius float    [virtual]
 

Set/Get cylinder radius.
