IMP::algebra::Plane3D Class Reference

Detailed Description

Represent a plane in 3D.

Note:: This class is a geometric primitive. Also, this class is not not initialized by its default constructor.


Public Member Functions
const VectorD< 3 > &	get_normal () const
Plane3D	get_opposite () const
	Return the plane with the opposite normal.
VectorD< 3 >	get_point_on_plane () const
VectorD< 3 >	get_projection (const VectorD< 3 > &p) const
	Project the point onto the plane.
	Plane3D (double distance_to_plane, const VectorD< 3 > &normal_to_plane)
	Plane3D (const VectorD< 3 > &point_on_plane, const VectorD< 3 > &normal_to_plane)
Orientation
Up is the direction of the normal.
bool	get_is_above (const VectorD< 3 > &p) const

Related Functions
(Note that these are not member functions.)
double	get_distance (const Plane3D &pln, const VectorD< 3 > &p)
	Return the distance between a plane and a point in 3D.

bool IMP::algebra::Plane3D::get_is_above ( const VectorD< 3 > & p ) const

Note:: This predicates will produce guaranteed correct results if the CGAL library is available (the results will be unreliable if it is not).

bool IMP::algebra::Plane3D::get_is_below ( const VectorD< 3 > & p ) const

Note:: This predicates will produce guaranteed correct results if the CGAL library is available (the results will be unreliable if it is not).

Return the distance between a plane and a point in 3D.
