SYNOPSIS

#include <Inventor/SbLinear.h>

Methods from class SbCylinder:

SbCylinder()

SbCylinder(const SbLine &a, float r)

void setValue(const SbLine &a, float r)

void setAxis(const SbLine &a)

void setRadius(float r)

const SbLine & getAxis() const

DESCRIPTION

This class defines a simple cylinder datatype. It is used by the Inventor toolkit for arguments or return values.

METHODS

SbCylinder()

SbCylinder(const SbLine &a, float r)

Constructors. One takes an axis and radius.

void setValue(const SbLine &a, float r)

Change the axis and radius.

void setAxis(const SbLine &a)

void setRadius(float r)

Set just the axis or radius.

const SbLine & getAxis() const

float getRadius() const

Return the axis and radius.

SbBool intersect(const SbLine &l, SbVec3f &intersection) const

SbBool intersect(const SbLine &l, SbVec3f &enter, SbVec3f &exit) const

Intersect line and cylinder, returning TRUE if there is an intersection.
