Detailed Description

The Plane class inherits from the Tuple class, specilizing the templated parameter to float for element type.

The Plane object is represented in 3D space using the equation(ax + by + cz + d = 0), and stores the coefficients (a, b, c, d).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Plane() [1/4]

cil::Plane::Plane

(

)

Constructs a Plane object, all coefficients initialized to 0.

Plane() [2/4]

Plane() [3/4]

cil::Plane::Plane	(	float	a,
		float	b,
		float	c,

Constructs a Plane object and sets its coefficients with arguments (x, y, z, w).

Plane() [4/4]

cil::Plane::Plane	(	const Vector3f &	origin,
		const Vector3f &	normal )

Constructs a Plane objet using the point-normal equation A(x-x0) + B(y-y0) +C(z-z0) = 0, so the a = A, b = B, c = C, d = - (Ax0 + By0 + Cz0).
