======================================
Added for curves:
getFirstParameter
getLastParameter
curvatureAt
length
Modified:
normalAt(double u, Base::Vector3d& dir)
as it was not working properly.
===========================
It stores a rational BSpline even if non-rational.
It should be extended to store in addition whether it is periodic or not, i.e. to support periodic BSplines.
==============================================================
1) Basic set/get interface for poles, weights, knots and multiplicities
2) Introduction of GeomBoundedCurve class replicating OCC hierarchy. Why? To provide seamless start/end point interface for any bounded curve, i.e. Bezier, BSpline,
Note: The ArcOfConic start/end point interface relies on GeomTrimmedCurve, and introduces CCW/CW correcting code which relies on Axis. Axis are introduced in GeomConic and are
not part of GeomBounded.
Note 2: In the future, it may be thought to make GeomArcOfConic (the equivalent of GeomTrimmedCurve) deriving from GeomBoundedCurve, as to fully replicate OCC hierarchy. GeomBoundedCurve
defines the functions as virtual to allow seamless integration.
===================================================
Correction of the emulation so that arcs of hyperbola are always CCW. This fixes mismatching of end points and edge in Sketcher.
- Fixing Hyperbola classes to get CCW emulation (like Ellipse classes).
In Sketcher:
- The Sketcher representation deals with the right branch of the Hyperbola only.
- Solver model is: Center, Focus1 (focus of the right branch), minor radius (b).
- HyperbolicArcRangeToEndPoints code is the one of Ellipse <= Awaiting DeepSOIC help ;)
- ConstraintPointOnHyperbola solver constraint is now implemented and should be working.
- No InternalAligment constraints implemented yet.
Fixes a bug where an arc, ellipse, or arc-of-ellipse, being reversed in
XY plane, behaved badly in sketcher (see forum thread "Sketch: how to
handle reversed external arcs?"
http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=9130 ).
Also fixes a problem with rotated arcs (see forum thread "Rotating Arc
in Sketcher"
http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=9145#p74262 ).
This is done by adding an emulation flag to a few methods in
Part::GeomXXX, which makes the shape to pretend being non-reversed
(CCW). This causes endpoints of reversed arcs of circles lineked as
external geometry to swap, causing broken sketches sometimes.
Part: Extension of Geometry::Curve to wrap more functions of OCC
Apart from:
bool tangent(double u, gp_Dir&) const;
that was already implemented, now it also implements:
Base::Vector3d pointAtParameter(double u) const;
Base::Vector3d firstDerivativeAtParameter(double u) const;
Base::Vector3d secondDerivativeAtParameter(double u) const;
bool normal(double u, gp_Dir& dir) const;
bool closestParameter(Base::Vector3d point, double &u);
i.e. apart from giving the tangent vector for a given curve at parameter value u,
it also gives:
- The point cartesian coordinates of the curve point at parameter value u
- The vector of the first derivative at parameter value u
- The vector of the second derivative at parameter value u
- The normal vector to the curve at parameter value u
- The parameter value of a curve closest ot a given point
Code cleanup: Changing Trim functionality of Ellipse to use OCC calculations
Part Curve functions extension: closestParameterToBasicCurve
It provides the parameter of the curve closest to a given point. If the curve is a Trimmed curve, the parameter of the basic underlaying curve closest to the point is provided.
