Detailed Description

See also
Class HierarchyEntry.

Description:
This is a utility class for describing hierarchies of shapes. All methods of this class are implemented by the system.

This is used in generating mesh objects from shapes. In order for a mesh object to be generated correctly, nested shapes must be oriented clockwise or counter-clockwise depending on their level of nesting. For example, a donut shape with two circular curves will have the outer shape going counter-clockwise and the inner shape going clockwise. If a third shape was nested inside both of these, its points would be going counter-clockwise.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ GenericHierarchy()

GenericHierarchy ( )
inline
Remarks
Constructor. The hierarchy is set as initially empty.
104 { root = HierarchyEntry(-1,NULL,NULL); isSorted = FALSE; }
#define NULL
Definition: autoptr.h:18
Definition: genhier.h:41

◆ ~GenericHierarchy()

Member Function Documentation

◆ AddEntry()

UtilExport void AddEntry ( int  data,
int  parent = -1 
)
Remarks
This method adds one entry given its parent.
Parameters:
int data

The polygon index of the entry to add.

int parent = -1

The index of the parent of the entry.

◆ Entries()

UtilExport int Entries ( )
Remarks
Returns the total number of members in the hierarchy.

◆ GetStart()

UtilExport HierarchyEntry* GetStart ( )
inline
Remarks
Retrieves the first item under the root.
Returns
The first HierarchyEntry under the root.
117 { return root.child; } // Get the first item under the root
HierarchyEntry * child
Definition: genhier.h:47

◆ FindEntry()

UtilExport HierarchyEntry* FindEntry ( int  data,
HierarchyEntry start = NULL 
)
Remarks
Finds the specified entry in the hierarchy.
Parameters:
int data

The polygon index of the entry to find.

HierarchyEntry* start = NULL

The entry at which to begin the search. If NULL is specified the search starts at the root.
Returns
A pointer to the HierarchyEntry of the found entry. If not found, NULL is returned.

◆ NumberOfChildren()

UtilExport int NumberOfChildren ( int  data)
Remarks
Returns the number of children for this item.
Parameters:
int data

The index of the polygon to return the number of children of.

◆ GetChild()

UtilExport int GetChild ( int  data,
int  index 
)
Remarks
Returns the specified child of the specified entry.
Parameters:
int data

The index of the polygon whose child is to be returned.

int index

Specifies which child to return.
Returns
The specified child of the entry.

◆ New()

UtilExport void New ( )
Remarks
Clear out the hierarchy tree.

◆ Sort()

UtilExport void Sort ( )
Remarks
Sorts the hierarchy tree by children / siblings. This is used internally as all the sorting is done automatically as the hierarchy is generated.

◆ IsCompatible()

UtilExport BOOL IsCompatible ( GenericHierarchy hier)
Remarks
Determines if this hierarchy and the specified hierarchy are compatible.
Parameters:
GenericHierarchy& hier

The hierarchy to check for compatibility.
Returns
TRUE if the hierarchies are compatible; otherwise FALSE.

◆ Dump()

UtilExport void Dump ( HierarchyEntry start = NULL)
Remarks
This method is used internally to DebugPrint() the tree. See Troubleshooting.

◆ operator=()

Remarks
Copy operator.
Parameters:
GenericHierarchy& from

The hierarchy to copy from.

◆ SortKey()

UtilExport MSTR& SortKey ( )
Remarks
Returns the sort key for the hierarchy. This is used internally.
Operators:
