PointPropagationParameter Methods

The PointPropagationParameter type exposes the following members.

Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodClone
Clones this object using the specified context.
(Overrides DefinitionalObjectClone(CopyContext).)
Public methodStatic memberConfigureIndicesOnEvaluator

This is called by PropagationStateElement instances using PointPropagationParameter so that the element can update the indices used to identify the individual values corresponding to this point in the state during evaluation. In general, this should only be called from within the GetConverter(EvaluatorGroup, MotionInt32) method when configuring the indices provided by the NumericalPropagatorDefinition.

The EvaluatorGroup will create an evaluator based on the StateParameter and the IntegrationFrame and cache it for future calls. This method updates the instance variables for the indices so that it will reflect the point's elements within the state during evaluation. In general, this breaks the "Evaluator Pattern" by altering data on an evaluator after construction. However, so long as it is done once and only once prior to any evaluation this is deemed as following the "Evaluator Pattern" which stipulates that an evaluator should always return the same value for a given time.

Public methodCreateVectorAcceleration
Constructs a vector which represents the second derivative of this point's position.
(Inherited from Point.)
Public methodCreateVectorDerivative
Constructs a vector which represents the requested order of the derivative of this point's position.
(Inherited from Point.)
Public methodCreateVectorVelocity
Constructs a vector which represents the derivative of this point's position.
(Overrides PointCreateVectorVelocity(ReferenceFrame).)
Public methodEnumerateDependencies
Enumerates the dependencies of this object by calling EnumerateT(T) for each object that this object directly depends upon. Derived classes which contain additional dependencies MUST override this method, call the base implementation, and enumerate dependencies introduced by the derived class.
(Overrides DefinitionalObjectEnumerateDependencies(DependencyEnumerator).)
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodFreeze
Freezes this object. Further attempts to modify it will result in an ObjectFrozenException.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Public methodGetDefinitionHashCode
Gets a hash code representing the definition of this object.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Public methodGetEvaluator
Gets an evaluator that can be used to find the motion of this point in its parent reference frame at a given date. Consider using the methods of GeometryTransformer instead of calling this method directly. See GetEvaluator(EvaluatorGroup) for more details.
(Inherited from Point.)
Public methodGetEvaluator(EvaluatorGroup)

Gets an evaluator that can be used to find the motion of this point in its parent reference frame based on the state provided by evaluating the evaluator produced by the StateParameter.

Consider using the methods of GeometryTransformer instead of calling this method directly. See GetEvaluator(EvaluatorGroup) for more details.

This type will usually not be used directly. It is instead used by PropagationNewtonianPoint behind the scenes. If this type is used, such as during the implementation of a type similar to or deriving from PropagationNewtonianPoint, always call ConfigureIndicesOnEvaluator(EvaluatorGroup, PointPropagationParameter, MotionInt32) prior to this method.

(Overrides PointGetEvaluator(EvaluatorGroup).)
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetPartialDerivativesEvaluator
This type does not have derivatives or partial derivatives with respect to any object with the exception of itself. Because of that the created PartialDerivativesEvaluator has a ColumnDimension of zero if this PointPropagationParameter is not in the generalized state, and if it is in the generalized state it returns a 3x3 identity matrix.
Public methodGetScalarElement(CartesianElement, ReferenceFrame)
Returns a Scalar representing the X, Y, Z, or Magnitude of this point.
(Inherited from Point.)
Public methodGetScalarElement(CartesianElement, ReferenceFrame, Int32)
Returns a Scalar representing the X, Y, Z, or Magnitude, or any derivative of those elements of this point.
(Inherited from Point.)
Public methodGetService
Gets the service object of the specified type.
(Inherited from Point.)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodIsSameDefinition
Determines if this object has the same definition as another object.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Public methodToString
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
