Member Function Documentation

virtual bool PxCooking::computeHullPolygons ( const PxSimpleTriangleMesh mesh,
PxAllocatorCallback inCallback,
PxU32 nbVerts,
PxVec3 *&  vertices,
PxU32 nbIndices,
PxU32 *&  indices,
PxU32 nbPolygons,
PxHullPolygon *&  hullPolygons 
) const [pure virtual]

Computed hull polygons from given vertices and triangles. Polygons are needed for PxConvexMeshDesc rather than triangles.

Please note that the resulting polygons may have different number of vertices. Some vertices may be removed. The output vertices, indices and polygons must be used to construct a hull.

The provided PxAllocatorCallback does allocate the out array's. It is the user responsibility to deallocated those array's.

Parameters:
[in] mesh Simple triangle mesh containing vertices and triangles used to compute polygons.
[in] inCallback Memory allocator for out array allocations.
[out] nbVerts Number of vertices used by polygons.
[out] vertices Vertices array used by polygons.
[out] nbIndices Number of indices used by polygons.
[out] indices Indices array used by polygons.
[out] nbPolygons Number of created polygons.
[out] hullPolygons Polygons array.
Returns:
true on success

virtual bool PxCooking::cookConvexMesh ( const PxConvexMeshDesc desc,
PxOutputStream stream,
PxConvexMeshCookingResult::Enum condition = NULL 
) const [pure virtual]

Cooks a convex mesh. The results are written to the stream.

To create a triangle mesh object it is necessary to first 'cook' the mesh data into a form which allows the SDK to perform efficient collision detection.

cookConvexMesh() allows a mesh description to be cooked into a binary stream suitable for loading and performing collision detection at runtime.

Example

//TODO: Add Code Snippet Here

Note:
The number of vertices and the number of convex polygons in a cooked convex mesh is limited to 255.

If those limits are exceeded in either the user-provided data or the final cooked mesh, an error is reported.

Parameters:
[in] desc The convex mesh descriptor to read the mesh from.
[in] stream User stream to output the cooked data.
[out] condition Result from convex mesh cooking.
Returns:
true on success.

virtual bool PxCooking::cookHeightField ( const PxHeightFieldDesc desc,
PxOutputStream stream 
) const [pure virtual]

Cooks a heightfield. The results are written to the stream.

To create a heightfield object there is an option to precompute some of calculations done while loading the heightfield data.

cookHeightField() allows a heightfield description to be cooked into a binary stream suitable for loading and performing collision detection at runtime.

Parameters:
[in] desc The heightfield descriptor to read the HF from.
[in] stream User stream to output the cooked data.
Returns:
true on success

PxPhysics.createHeightField()

virtual bool PxCooking::cookTriangleMesh ( const PxTriangleMeshDesc desc,
PxOutputStream stream,
PxTriangleMeshCookingResult::Enum condition = NULL 
) const [pure virtual]

Cooks a triangle mesh. The results are written to the stream.

To create a triangle mesh object it is necessary to first 'cook' the mesh data into a form which allows the SDK to perform efficient collision detection.

cookTriangleMesh() allows a mesh description to be cooked into a binary stream suitable for loading and performing collision detection at runtime.

Example

//TODO: Add Code Snippet Here

Parameters:
[in] desc The triangle mesh descriptor to read the mesh from.
[in] stream User stream to output the cooked data.
[out] condition Result from triangle mesh cooking.
Returns:
true on success

virtual PxConvexMesh* PxCooking::createConvexMesh ( const PxConvexMeshDesc desc,
PxPhysicsInsertionCallback insertionCallback 
) const [pure virtual]

Cooks and creates a convex mesh and inserts it into PxPhysics.

Note:
This method does the same as cookConvexMesh, but the produced convex mesh is not stored into a stream but is directly inserted in PxPhysics. Use this method if you are unable to cook offline.

PxPhysicsInsertionCallback can be obtained through PxPhysics::getPhysicsInsertionCallback().

Parameters:
[in] desc The convex mesh descriptor to read the mesh from.
[in] insertionCallback The insertion interface from PxPhysics.
Returns:
PxConvexMesh pointer on success

virtual PxHeightField* PxCooking::createHeightField ( const PxHeightFieldDesc desc,
PxPhysicsInsertionCallback insertionCallback 
) const [pure virtual]

Cooks and creates a heightfield mesh and inserts it into PxPhysics.

Parameters:
[in] desc The heightfield descriptor to read the HF from.
[in] insertionCallback The insertion interface from PxPhysics.
Returns:
PxHeightField pointer on success

virtual PxTriangleMesh* PxCooking::createTriangleMesh ( const PxTriangleMeshDesc desc,
PxPhysicsInsertionCallback insertionCallback 
) const [pure virtual]

Cooks and creates a triangle mesh and inserts it into PxPhysics.

Note:
PxPhysicsInsertionCallback can be obtained through PxPhysics::getPhysicsInsertionCallback().
Parameters:
[in] desc The triangle mesh descriptor to read the mesh from.
[in] insertionCallback The insertion interface from PxPhysics.
Returns:

virtual const PxCookingParams& PxCooking::getParams (  )  const [pure virtual]

Gets cooking parameters.

Returns:
Current cooking parameters.

PxCookingParams setParams()

virtual bool PxCooking::platformMismatch (  )  const [pure virtual]

Checks endianness is the same between cooking & target platforms.

Returns:
True if there is and endian mismatch.

virtual void PxCooking::release (  )  [pure virtual]

Closes this instance of the interface.

This function should be called to cleanly shut down the Cooking library before application exit.

Note:
This function is required to be called to release foundation usage.

virtual void PxCooking::setParams ( const PxCookingParams params  )  [pure virtual]

Sets cooking parameters.

Parameters:
[in] params Cooking parameters
See also:
getParams()

virtual bool PxCooking::validateConvexMesh ( const PxConvexMeshDesc desc  )  const [pure virtual]

Verifies if the convex mesh is valid. Prints an error message for each inconsistency found.

The convex mesh descriptor must contain an already created convex mesh - the vertices, indices and polygons must be provided.

Note:
This function should be used if PxConvexFlag::eDISABLE_MESH_VALIDATION is planned to be used in release builds.
Parameters:
[in] desc The convex mesh descriptor to read the mesh from.
Returns:
true if all the validity conditions hold, false otherwise.
See also:
cookConvexMesh()

virtual bool PxCooking::validateTriangleMesh ( const PxTriangleMeshDesc desc  )  const [pure virtual]

Verifies if the triangle mesh is valid. Prints an error message for each inconsistency found.

The following conditions are true for a valid triangle mesh: 1. There are no duplicate vertices (within specified vertexWeldTolerance. See PxCookingParams::meshWeldTolerance) 2. There are no large triangles (within specified PxTolerancesScale.)

Parameters:
[in] desc The triangle mesh descriptor to read the mesh from.
Returns:
true if all the validity conditions hold, false otherwise.
