jvx.loader
Class PgBdLoader

java.lang.Object
  jvx.loader.PgBdLoader

All Implemented Interfaces:

PgLoaderIf

public final class PgBdLoader

extends java.lang.Object

implements PgLoaderIf

Reads a build file '*.bd' and fills information in PgMacroPatch. Class is later queried by an application for macro patches. An application is responsible to generate actual geometries, like triangulations, out of a macro patch.

Each macro patch may be bounded by simple straight lines or by curves with sophisticated boundary constraints to be used in calculus of variations. See description of the file format '*.bd' for more details.

PgBdLoader

public PgBdLoader()

Method Detail

isEnabledOptimization

public boolean isEnabledOptimization()

Determines if the loaded geometry requires some optimization. The method in this class prohibits optimization and always returns false.

For example, some file formats do not store a connected mesh but provide individual vertices for each face every time the face is menetioned. In this case, a loader manager may identify equal vertices.

A similar method in the loader manager PgLoader may override the individual settings of each loader.

Specified by:

isEnabledOptimization in interface PgLoaderIf

Returns:

true if loader is enabled for optimization.

Since:

JavaView 2.99.018

See Also:

PgLoader.isEnabledOptimization(), PgLoader.setEnabledOptimization(boolean)

setGeometryOption

public void setGeometryOption(java.util.BitSet option)

Set the geometry options which indicate which parts of a geometry shall be saved. This method must be called before writing the geometry. Note, not all geometry file formats support geometry options.

Specified by:

setGeometryOption in interface PgLoaderIf

Since:

JavaView 2.68.000

getDisplayOption

public PvDisplayOption getDisplayOption()

Get display options which some parsers and geometry file formats supply. This geometry file format does not support loading/saving of display options.

Specified by:

getDisplayOption in interface PgLoaderIf

See Also:

PgLoaderIf.load(BufferedReader)

setDisplayOption

public void setDisplayOption(PvDisplayOption option)

Set the display options to be saved within the geometry file. This method must be called before writing the geometry. This geometry file format does not support loading/saving of display options.

Specified by:

setDisplayOption in interface PgLoaderIf

isAnimation

public boolean isAnimation()

Determine if currently loaded data is an animation.

This method may be called after successful parsing an input stream with the method load(BufferedReader).

Specified by:

isAnimation in interface PgLoaderIf

Returns:

true if loaded data is an animation.

See Also:

load(BufferedReader)

setAnimation

public void setAnimation(boolean flag)

Set flag whether current geometry data is an animation.

Specified by:

setAnimation in interface PgLoaderIf

Parameters:

flag - true if loaded data is an animation.

getAnimations

public PgJvxSrc[][] getAnimations()

Retrieve the previously loaded animations.

This method may be called after successful parsing an input stream with the method load(BufferedReader) and if isAnimation() returns true.

Specified by:

getAnimations in interface PgLoaderIf

Returns:

Double array of JVX geometries.

See Also:

load(BufferedReader)

getGeometries

public PgJvxSrc[] getGeometries()

Retrieve the previously loaded geometries.

This method may be called after successful parsing an input stream with the method load(BufferedReader) and if isAnimation() returns false.

Specified by:

getGeometries in interface PgLoaderIf

Returns:

Array of JVX geometries.

See Also:

load(BufferedReader)

getSpecializedGeometries

public PgGeometryIf[] getSpecializedGeometries()

Return the loaded geometry in a more specialized class. This method allows a loader to return a geometry class which best fits the data found in a geometry file.

The loader manager jv.loader.PgLoader in JavaView will first check if a loader returns specialized geometies, and if not, check for a data supplied in a container class PgJvxSrc.

This method may be called after successful parsing an input stream with the method load(BufferedReader) and if isAnimation() returns false.

Specified by:

getSpecializedGeometries in interface PgLoaderIf

Returns:

Array of element sets.

Since:

JavaView 2.53

See Also:

getGeometries()

load

public boolean load(java.io.BufferedReader in)

Read a geometry file containing a set of geometries or animations.

After successful parsing retrieve the loaded geometries or animations using the methods getGeometries() respectively getAnimations() depending on the return value of the method isAnimation().

Specified by:

load in interface PgLoaderIf

Parameters:

in - BufferedReader to read textual data from.

Returns:

true if parsing was successfull.

See Also:

getAnimations(), getGeometries(), isAnimation()

getNumPatches

public int getNumPatches()

Get number of macro patches found in the build file.

getPatch

public PgMacroPatch getPatch(int anInd)

Return the macro patch with given index.

read

public PgJvxSrc[] read(java.io.BufferedReader in)

Read an inhouse BD geometry file and return an array with a single surface. All interior boundaries are removed.

The returned array of geometry may contain keyframes of an animation. This is checked with the method isAnimation().

Alternatively, one may call load(BuffereredReader) followed by getGeometries() resp. getAnimations() to have a finer control about which information one wants to use from a source. For example, optional display information must be retrieve by a subsequent call getDisplayOption() if available.

Specified by:

read in interface PgLoaderIf

Parameters:

in - BufferedReader to read textual data from.

Returns:

Array of JVX geometries.

See Also:

write(Writer, PgJvxSrc [])

readElementSet

public PgElementSet[] readElementSet(java.io.BufferedReader in)

write

public boolean write(java.io.Writer writer,
                     PgJvxSrc[] geomArr)
              throws java.io.IOException

Write an array of geometries into an output stream writer.

Numbers with absolute value less than jv.vecmath.PuMath#EPS are shown as zero. This avoids the anoying fact that double precision numbers fill the whole text area hiding the exponent, which hides their small value.

Specified by:

write in interface PgLoaderIf

Parameters:

writer - Write all data to this stream

geomArr - Array with geometries to save

Returns:

true on success.

Throws:

java.io.IOException
