◆ findPrototype()

template<typename Prototypes >

decltype(auto) Bifrost::Geometry::findPrototype	(	Bifrost::Object const &	obj,
		Prototypes const &	prototypes
	)

Finds the first prototype in the given prototypes such that the given object satisfies this prototype.

◆ getGeometryTypes()

BIFROST_GEOMETRY_DECL Amino::Ptr< Amino::Array< Amino::Ptr< Bifrost::Object > > > Bifrost::Geometry::getGeometryTypes ( )

Return a list of geometry prototypes, ordered from most to least specific. Can be used to find the type of an object, for example using the helper function Bifrost::Geometry::resolveType.

The ordering of types is (from most to least specific)

Volume
Instances
Mesh
Strands
Point cloud

Returns: A const array of geometry prototypes.

◆ resolveType()

Common::GeometryType Bifrost::Geometry::resolveType ( Bifrost::Object const & obj )

inline

Determine the type of an object.

Simply traverses all the geometry prototypes and returns the first one that matches.
