PxConvexCoreGeometry

Defined in include/geometry/PxConvexCoreGeometry.h

class PxConvexCoreGeometry : public PxGeometry

Convex core geometry class.

This class allows users to create a variety of convex shapes. Each shape is defined by:

1. A core, specified by one of the pre-authored GJK support functions.

2. A margin, which is an arbitrary distance that extends the core.

The resulting convex shape includes both the core and the surrounding space within the margin.

Simple examples include:

• A sphere: created from a point core with a non-zero margin (radius).

• A capsule: created from a segment core with a non-zero margin.

Public Functions

inline PxConvexCoreGeometry()

Default constructor.

template<typename Core>
inline PxConvexCoreGeometry(

const Core &core,

PxReal margin = 0,

)

Constructor.

Template Parameters:

Core – The type of the core

Parameters:

• core – The core to use

• margin – The margin to add around the core. Defaults to 0

inline PxConvexCoreGeometry(const PxConvexCoreGeometry &that)

Copy constructor.

Parameters:

that – The geometry to copy from

inline PxConvexCoreGeometry &operator=(

const PxConvexCoreGeometry &that,

)

Assignment operator.

Parameters:

that – The geometry to assign from

inline PxConvexCore::Type getCoreType() const

Get the type of the core.

Returns:

The type of the core

inline const void *getCoreData() const

Get a pointer to the core data.

Returns:

A pointer to the core data.

template<typename Core>
inline const Core &getCore() const

Get the core.

Returns:

The core.

inline PxReal getMargin() const

Get the margin of the convex core geometry.

Returns:

The margin size.

bool isValid() const

Check if the convex core geometry is valid.

Returns:

True if the geometry is valid, false otherwise.

inline PxGeometryType::Enum getType() const

Returns the type of the geometry.

Returns:

The type of the object.
