Interface GeometryService

All Known Implementing Classes:

GeometryServiceImpl

public interface GeometryService

A service interface for certain geometric operations that are not available in core Java 3D.

In particular, the j3d-core-utils project provides additional functionality under a different license, which is needed in some circumstances by core Java 3D. Thus, historically, these two projects have been co-dependent. This interface breaks the circular dependency by using Java's service discovery mechanism: if j3d-core-utils is present on the classpath, its GeometryServiceImpl will provide the functionality defined here. Or if not (i.e., no suitable GeometryService implementation can be discovered and instantiated}), then the Java3D core will fail as gracefully as possible.

Method Detail

triangulateIslands

int triangulateIslands(int[][] islandCounts,
                       Point3f[][] outVerts,
                       int[] contourCounts,
                       java.util.ArrayList<GeometryArray> triangData)

Loops through each island, calling triangulator once per island. Combines triangle data for all islands together in one object.

Parameters:

islandCounts - TODO

outVerts - TODO

contourCounts - TODO

triangData - TODO

Returns:

total vertex count of the combined array
