Detailed Description

This is a base class from which camera plug-ins may be derived.

Methods of this class are used to get and set properties of the camera. All methods of this class are virtual. To ensure that the camera has a valid targDist during network rendering, be sure to call UpdateTargDistance( TimeValue t, INode* inode ); This call should be made PRIOR to cameraObj->EvalWorldState().

Member Function Documentation

SuperClassID()

SClass_ID SuperClassID ( )

inlinevirtual

Retrieves a constant representing the type of the plugin.

Returns

A super class id that uniquely identifies the type (category) of the plugin. Note that several plugin classes can be of the same type, thus return the same super class id. Plugins are uniquely identified by their class ids.

See also

SClass_ID

Reimplemented from ReferenceTarget.

{ return CAMERA_CLASS_ID; }

IsRenderable()

int IsRenderable ( )

inlinevirtual

Indicates whether the object may be rendered.

Some objects such as construction grids and helpers should not be rendered and can return zero.

Returns

Nonzero if the object may be rendered; otherwise 0.

Implements Object.

{ return(0);}

InitNodeName()

virtual void InitNodeName ( MSTR &  s )

inlineoverridevirtual

This is the default name of the node when it is created.

Parameters

s	The default name of the node is stored here.

Implements Object.

Reimplemented in MSObjectXtnd< GenCamera, MSPluginCamera >, and MSPluginObject< GenCamera >.

{ s = _M("Camera"); }

UsesWireColor()

virtual int UsesWireColor ( )

inlineoverridevirtual

This method determines if the object color is used for display.

Returns

TRUE if the object color is used for display; otherwise FALSE.

Reimplemented from Object.

Reimplemented in MSCameraXtnd, and MSPluginCamera.

{ return FALSE; } // TRUE if the object color is used for display

EvalCameraState()

virtual RefResult EvalCameraState ( TimeValue  time, Interval &  valid, CameraState *  cs  )

pure virtual

This method is called to update the CameraState and validity interval at the specified time.

Parameters

time	Specifies the time to evaluate the camera.
valid	The plug-in computes the validity interval of the camera at the specified time and stores the result here.
cs	The camera state to update. See Structure CameraState.

Note

The view vector and 'up' vector for the camera are stored with the matrix transform for the node. Cameras can be multiple-instanced so it must work this way. To get at this matrix use the following method from Class INode:

virtual Matrix3 GetObjTMAfterWSM(TimeValue time, Interval* valid=NULL)=0;

The scaling of this matrix may be removed by normalizing each of the rows.

Returns

REF_SUCCEED if the camera state was updated successfully; otherwise REF_FAIL.

Implemented in MSCameraXtnd, and MSPluginCamera.

SetOrtho()

virtual void SetOrtho ( BOOL  b )

pure virtual

Sets whether the camera is on ortho mode or not.

Parameters

b	Pass TRUE for ortho and FALSE for not ortho.

Implemented in MSCameraXtnd, and MSPluginCamera.

IsOrtho()

virtual BOOL IsOrtho ( )

pure virtual

Returns TRUE if the camera is in ortho mode and FALSE if it is not.
