public class TLcdGML32AbstractCurve extends TLcdGML32AbstractGeometricPrimitive implements ILcdCurve
gml:AbstractCurveType is an abstraction of a curve to support the different levels of complexity. The curve may always be viewed as a geometric primitive, i.e. is continuous.

    • computePointSFCT

      public void computePointSFCT(double aParam, ILcd3DEditablePoint aPointSFCT)
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Computes a point of the curve, defined by the given parameter.
      Specified by:
      computePointSFCT in interface ILcdCurve
      Parameters:
      aParam - a value of the closed interval [0,1]
      aPointSFCT - the point to store the computed curve point in
    • getEndPoint

      public ILcdPoint getEndPoint()
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Retrieves the end point of the curve.

      This is equivalent to computePointSFCT(1).

      Specified by:
      getEndPoint in interface ILcdCurve
      Returns:
      the end point of the curve
    • getEndTangent

      public double getEndTangent()
    • getLength

      public double getLength()
    • getLineSegmentIntersectionCount

      public int getLineSegmentIntersectionCount(ILcdPoint aP1, ILcdPoint aP2)
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Returns the number of intersections between this curve and a line segment defined by the two specified points.

      This information can be used to perform containment calculations, if this curve is closed or if this curve is part of a composite closed curve. By determining the number of intersections between this curve and a line segment starting from a given point in a fixed direction, one can determine whether a point is located within the closed curve by using the even-odd rule.

      Specified by:
      getLineSegmentIntersectionCount in interface ILcdCurve
      Parameters:
      aP1 - the first point of the line segment
      aP2 - the second point of the line segment
      Returns:
      the number of intersections between the curve and the line segment
    • getStartPoint

      public ILcdPoint getStartPoint()
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Retrieves the start point of the curve.

      This is equivalent to computePointSFCT(0).

      Specified by:
      getStartPoint in interface ILcdCurve
      Returns:
      the start point of the curve
    • getStartTangent

      public double getStartTangent()
    • getEndTangent2D

      public double getEndTangent2D()
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Returns the angle of the curve's tangent at the end point, in degrees counterclockwise from the direction at 3 o'clock.

      The tangent orientation is from the end point, away from the curve before it.

      This is the same as getTangent2D(1).

      Specified by:
      getEndTangent2D in interface ILcdCurve
      Returns:
      the curve's angle in the end point
    • getInterpolation

      public String getInterpolation()
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Returns the interpolation method used by this curve.

      A set of predefined constants are defined in this interface, which are used by the default ILcdCurve implementations provided by LuciadLightspeed.

      Custom implementations can define their own constants, and use them to interpret the interpolation of the curve.

      Specified by:
      getInterpolation in interface ILcdCurve
      Returns:
      the interpolation method used by this curve.
    • getLength2D

      public double getLength2D(double aParam1, double aParam2)
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Returns the length between two points of the curve, defined by the given parameters.
      • When aParam1 == aParam2, the length is 0.
      • When aParam1 == 0 and aParam2 == 1, the length is the whole length of the curve.
      • When aParam1 > aParam2, the length is (aParam1 to 1) + (0 to aParam2).
      Specified by:
      getLength2D in interface ILcdCurve
      Parameters:
      aParam1 - a value of the closed interval [0,1]
      aParam2 - a value of the closed interval [0,1]
      Returns:
      the length of the curve.
    • getStartTangent2D

      public double getStartTangent2D()
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Returns the angle of the curve's tangent at the start point, in degrees counterclockwise from the direction at 3 o'clock.

      The tangent orientation is from the start point towards the rest of the shape.

      This is the same as getTangent2D(0).

      Specified by:
      getStartTangent2D in interface ILcdCurve
      Returns:
      the curve's angle in the start point
    • getTangent2D

      public double getTangent2D(double aParam)
      Description copied from interface: ILcdCurve
      Returns the angle of the curve's tangent in the point defined by the given parameter, in degrees counterclockwise from the direction at 3 o'clock.

      The tangent orientation is from the point at parameter aParam towards the rest of the shape.

      Specified by:
      getTangent2D in interface ILcdCurve
      Parameters:
      aParam - a value of the closed interval [0,1]
      Returns:
      the curve's angle in the point defined by the given parameter
