Enum Constant Detail

QUADRIC_EDGE_COLLAPSE

public static final ELcdSimplificationStrategy QUADRIC_EDGE_COLLAPSE

Simplification based on a iterative edge collapse.

This is the default strategy, as it gives the best all-around results. It can be used for both "reality meshes" or CAD like meshes. In cases where the input dataset is made up of extremely simple shapes (e.g.: cubes), the results can be rather displeasing because the meshes cannot be simplified without changing the topology significantly. in such cases DROP_SMALL_PARTS should be used.

CLUSTERING

public static final ELcdSimplificationStrategy CLUSTERING

Simplification based on vertex clustering.

This strategy gives comparable results to QUADRIC_EDGE_COLLAPSE with slightly faster performance and slightly worse visual results. This strategy tends to preserve the edges of the dataset better for "reality meshes".

DROP_SMALL_PARTS

public static final ELcdSimplificationStrategy DROP_SMALL_PARTS

Simplification by dropping small objects.

Removes small independent pieces. This works best when the original shapes are very simple (like blocks) and cannot be simplified without changing the topology of the mesh significantly. This strategy should not be used with "reality meshes" since those are usually one solid piece.

Method Detail

values

public static ELcdSimplificationStrategy[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (ELcdSimplificationStrategy c : ELcdSimplificationStrategy.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static ELcdSimplificationStrategy valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
