## Detailed Description

The result of a NurbsCurveEvaluator.

This object represents a curve in a particular coordinate space. It can return the point and/or tangent to the curve at any point.

This is not related to NurbsCurve, CubicCurveseg or any of the ParametricCurve-derived objects in this module. It is a completely parallel implementation of NURBS curves, and will probably eventually replace the whole ParametricCurve class hierarchy.

NurbsCurveResult::NurbsCurveResult | ( | const NurbsBasisVector & | basis,
|  | const LVecBase4 | vecs[],
|  | const NurbsVertex * | verts,
|  | int | num_vertices )

The constructor automatically builds up the result as the product of the indicated set of basis matrices and the indicated table of control vertex positions.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ adaptive_sample()

void NurbsCurveResult::adaptive_sample | ( | PN_stdfloat | tolerance | ) |

Determines the set of subdivisions necessary to approximate the curve with a set of linear segments, no point of which is farther than tolerance units from the actual curve.

After this call, you may walk through the resulting set of samples with get_num_samples(), get_sample_t(), and get_sample_point().

References eval_segment_point().

## ◆ eval_extended_point()

PN_stdfloat NurbsCurveResult::eval_extended_point | ( | PN_stdfloat | t,
|  | int | d )
| inline

Evaluates the curve in n-dimensional space according to the extended vertices associated with the curve in the indicated dimension.

Definition at line 72 of file nurbsCurveResult.I.

References eval_segment_extended_point().

## ◆ eval_extended_points()

bool NurbsCurveResult::eval_extended_points | ( | PN_stdfloat | t,
|  | int | d,
|  | PN_stdfloat | result[],
|  | int | num_values )
| inline

Simultaneously performs eval_extended_point on a contiguous sequence of dimensions.

The dimensions evaluated are d through (d + num_values - 1); the results are filled into the num_values elements in the indicated result array.

Definition at line 88 of file nurbsCurveResult.I.

References eval_segment_extended_points().

## ◆ eval_point()

bool NurbsCurveResult::eval_point | ( | PN_stdfloat | t,
|  | LVecBase3 & | point )
| inline

Computes the point on the curve corresponding to the indicated value in parametric time.

Returns true if the t value is valid, false otherwise.

Definition at line 41 of file nurbsCurveResult.I.

References eval_segment_point().

## ◆ eval_segment_extended_point()

PN_stdfloat NurbsCurveResult::eval_segment_extended_point | ( | int | segment,
|  | PN_stdfloat | t,
|  | int | d ) const

Evaluates the curve in n-dimensional space according to the extended vertices associated with the curve in the indicated dimension.

|  | PN_stdfloat | t,
|  | int | d,
|  | PN_stdfloat | result[],
|  | int | num_values ) const

Simultaneously performs eval_extended_point on a contiguous sequence of dimensions.

The dimensions evaluated are d through (d + num_values - 1); the results are filled into the num_values elements in the indicated result array.

## ◆ eval_segment_point()

void NurbsCurveResult::eval_segment_point | ( | int | segment,
|  | PN_stdfloat | t,
|  | LVecBase3 & | point ) const

Evaluates the point on the curve corresponding to the indicated value in parametric time within the indicated curve segment.

t should be in the range [0, 1].

The curve is internally represented as a number of connected (or possibly unconnected) piecewise continuous segments. The exact number of segments for a particular curve depends on the knot vector, and is returned by get_num_segments(). Normally, eval_point() is used to evaluate a point along the continuous curve, but when you care more about local continuity, you can use eval_segment_point() to evaluate the points along each segment.

## ◆ eval_segment_tangent()

void NurbsCurveResult::eval_segment_tangent | ( | int | segment,
|  | PN_stdfloat | t,
|  | LVecBase3 & | tangent ) const

As eval_segment_point, but computes the tangent to the curve at the indicated point.

The tangent vector will not necessarily be normalized, and could be zero, particularly at the endpoints.

## ◆ eval_tangent()

bool NurbsCurveResult::eval_tangent | ( | PN_stdfloat | t,
