Constructor Detail

PathPrimitive

public PathPrimitive()

Initializes a default path primitive. This is equivalent to constructing a path primitive with an initial capacity of 16.

See Also:

PathPrimitive.PathPrimitive(int)

PathPrimitive

public PathPrimitive(int capacity)

Initializes a path primitive with the specified capacity.

After constructing the primitive, call a method such as AddFront or AddBack to provide it with positions.

The primitive's properties are initialized to the following values:

• agi.foundation.graphics.primitive.AutomaticallyComputeBoundingSphere: true
• agi.foundation.graphics.primitive.BoundingSphere: BoundingSphere.MaximumRadiusBoundingSphere (get)
• agi.foundation.graphics.primitive.Display: true
• agi.foundation.graphics.primitive.DisplayCondition: null
• agi.foundation.graphics.primitive.ReferenceFrame: The earth's agi.foundation.celestial.earthcentralbody.FixedFrame
• MaximumWidthSupported: Video card dependent
• MinimumWidthSupported: Video card dependent
• agi.foundation.graphics.pathprimitive.DisplayOutline: false
• agi.foundation.graphics.pathprimitive.OutlineWidth: 1
• agi.foundation.graphics.pathprimitive.PerItemPickingEnabled: false
• agi.foundation.graphics.pathprimitive.PolylineType: LineStrip
• agi.foundation.graphics.pathprimitive.Width: 1

Once the primitive is constructed, it must be added to Primitives (get) before it will be rendered.

Parameters:

capacity - Sets the initial capacity for the buffer containing positions. Setting the capacity reserves memory so the addition of points is more efficient.

Throws:

ArgumentOutOfRangeException - capacity must be greater than or equal to 0.

Method Detail

finalize

protected void finalize()
                 throws Throwable

Description copied from class: java.lang.Object

Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. A subclass overrides the finalize method to dispose of system resources or to perform other cleanup.

The general contract of finalize is that it is invoked if and when the Java™ virtual machine has determined that there is no longer any means by which this object can be accessed by any thread that has not yet died, except as a result of an action taken by the finalization of some other object or class which is ready to be finalized. The finalize method may take any action, including making this object available again to other threads; the usual purpose of finalize, however, is to perform cleanup actions before the object is irrevocably discarded. For example, the finalize method for an object that represents an input/output connection might perform explicit I/O transactions to break the connection before the object is permanently discarded.

The finalize method of class Object performs no special action; it simply returns normally. Subclasses of Object may override this definition.

The Java programming language does not guarantee which thread will invoke the finalize method for any given object. It is guaranteed, however, that the thread that invokes finalize will not be holding any user-visible synchronization locks when finalize is invoked. If an uncaught exception is thrown by the finalize method, the exception is ignored and finalization of that object terminates.

After the finalize method has been invoked for an object, no further action is taken until the Java virtual machine has again determined that there is no longer any means by which this object can be accessed by any thread that has not yet died, including possible actions by other objects or classes which are ready to be finalized, at which point the object may be discarded.

The finalize method is never invoked more than once by a Java virtual machine for any given object.

Any exception thrown by the finalize method causes the finalization of this object to be halted, but is otherwise ignored.

Overrides:

finalize in class Object

Throws:

Throwable - the Exception raised by this method

WeakReference, PhantomReference

dispose

protected void dispose(boolean disposing)

Overrides:

dispose in class Primitive

getColor

public Color getColor()

Overrides:

getColor in class Primitive

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - Always thrown by the path primitive.

setColor

public void setColor(Color value)

The path primitive does not support the Color property. Instead, use the Color (get) property on PathPoint.

Overrides:

setColor in class Primitive

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - Always thrown by the path primitive.

getTranslucency

public float getTranslucency()

The path primitive does not support the Translucency property. Instead, use the Translucency (get) property on PathPoint.

Overrides:

getTranslucency in class Primitive

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - Always thrown by the path primitive.

setTranslucency

public void setTranslucency(float value)

The path primitive does not support the Translucency property. Instead, use the Translucency (get) property on PathPoint.

Overrides:

setTranslucency in class Primitive

UnsupportedOperationException - Always thrown by the path primitive.

getCount

public final int getCount()

Returns the number of points.

Returns:

The number of points.

getCapacity

public final int getCapacity()

Returns the capacity that was set during object construction. The capacity is the amount of memory reserved for storing the points on the path. This will be automatically updated when adding/removing points.

Returns:

The capacity.

getUpdatePolicy

public PathPrimitiveUpdatePolicy getUpdatePolicy()

Gets how the primitive will be updated based on the current animation time.

getWidth

public float getWidth()

Gets the line width, in pixels.

The width is defined in pixels so even if the camera moves very close or very far from the primitive, the width of the line on the screen does not change.

Throws:

ArgumentOutOfRangeException - Width is less than 0.

InsufficientVideoCardException - Width is outside of the range supported by the video card. To verify a width is supported, check MinimumWidthSupported and MaximumWidthSupported. Regardless of MinimumWidthSupported, a width of 0 is always allowed and effectively hides the primitive.

See Also:

MinimumWidthSupported, MaximumWidthSupported

setWidth

public void setWidth(float value)

Sets the line width, in pixels.

The width is defined in pixels so even if the camera moves very close or very far from the primitive, the width of the line on the screen does not change.

Throws:

ArgumentOutOfRangeException - Width is less than 0.

InsufficientVideoCardException - Width is outside of the range supported by the video card. To verify a width is supported, check MinimumWidthSupported and MaximumWidthSupported. Regardless of MinimumWidthSupported, a width of 0 is always allowed and effectively hides the primitive.

See Also:

MinimumWidthSupported, MaximumWidthSupported

getMinimumWidthSupported

public static final float getMinimumWidthSupported()

Gets the minimum width, in pixels, supported by the video card.

See Also:

Width

getMaximumWidthSupported

Similar to Width, the outline width is defined in pixels, so even if the camera moves very close or very far from the primitive, the outline width on the screen does not change.

The total line width, in pixels, including the Width and outline width is clamped to MaximumWidthSupported.

Throws:

ArgumentOutOfRangeException - OutlineWidth is less than 0.

InsufficientVideoCardException - OutlineWidth is outside of the range supported by the video card. To verify a width is supported, check MinimumWidthSupported and MaximumWidthSupported.

See Also:

Width, MinimumWidthSupported, MaximumWidthSupported

setOutlineWidth

public final void setOutlineWidth(float value)

Sets the width, in pixels, of the outline around the line.

Similar to Width, the outline width is defined in pixels, so even if the camera moves very close or very far from the primitive, the outline width on the screen does not change.

The total line width, in pixels, including the Width and outline width is clamped to MaximumWidthSupported.

Throws:

ArgumentOutOfRangeException - OutlineWidth is less than 0.
