Detailed Description

treat a dataset as if it were an implicit function

Date:
2002/10/04 20:43:44
Revision:
1.26

vtkImplicitDataSet treats any type of dataset as if it were an implicit function. This means it computes a function value and gradient. vtkImplicitDataSet is a concrete implementation of vtkImplicitFunction.

vtkImplicitDataSet computes the function (at the point x) by performing cell interpolation. That is, it finds the cell containing x, and then uses the cell's interpolation functions to compute an interpolated scalar value at x. (A similar approach is used to find the gradient, if requested.) Points outside of the dataset are assigned the value of the ivar OutValue, and the gradient value OutGradient.

Warning:
Any type of dataset can be used as an implicit function as long as it has scalar data associated with it.

virtual const char* vtkImplicitDataSet::GetClassName   [virtual]
 

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

int vtkImplicitDataSet::IsTypeOf const char *    type [static]
 

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

virtual int vtkImplicitDataSet::IsA const char *    type [virtual]
 

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

vtkImplicitDataSet* vtkImplicitDataSet::SafeDownCast vtkObject   o [static]
 

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

void vtkImplicitDataSet::PrintSelf ostream &    os,
vtkIndent    indent
[virtual]
 

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

vtkImplicitDataSet* vtkImplicitDataSet::New   [static]
 

Construct an vtkImplicitDataSet with no initial dataset; the OutValue set to a large negative number; and the OutGradient set to (0,0,1).

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

unsigned long vtkImplicitDataSet::GetMTime   [virtual]
 

Return the MTime also considering the DataSet dependency.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

float vtkImplicitDataSet::EvaluateFunction float    x[3] [virtual]
 

Evaluate the implicit function. This returns the interpolated scalar value at x[3].

Implements vtkImplicitFunction.

float vtkImplicitDataSet::EvaluateFunction float    x,
float    y,
float    z
[inline]
 

Evaluate the implicit function. This returns the interpolated scalar value at x[3].
