◆ BrepForm()

ON_Brep* ON_Surface::BrepForm ( ON_Brep brep = nullptr) const
overridevirtual

Overrides virtual ON_Geometry::HasBrepForm. Uses ON_Brep::Create( ON_Surface&* ) to create a brep form. The surface is copied for use in the returned brep.

Parameters
brep[in] if not nullptr, brep is used to store the brep form of the surface. Result: Returns a pointer to on ON_Brep or nullptr. If the brep parameter is not nullptr, then brep is returned if the surface has a brep form and nullptr is returned if the geometry does not have a brep form.

The caller is responsible for managing the brep memory.

◆ DuplicateSurface()

virtual ON_Surface* ON_Surface::DuplicateSurface ( ) const
virtual

Get a duplicate of the surface.

Returns
A duplicate of the surface.

The caller must delete the returned surface. For non-ON_SurfaceProxy objects, this simply duplicates the surface using ON_Object::Duplicate. For ON_SurfaceProxy objects, this duplicates the actual proxy surface geometry and, if necessary, transposes the result to that the returned surfaces's parameterization and locus match the proxy surface's.

virtual bool ON_Surface::Extend ( int  dir,

virtual

Pure virtual function. Default returns false. Where possible, analytically extends surface to include domain.

Parameters
dir[in] 0 new Domain(0) will include domain. (the first surface parameter). 1 new Domain(1) will include domain. (the second surface parameter).
domain[in] if domain is not included in surface domain, surface will be extended so that its domain includes domain. Will not work if surface is closed in direction dir. Original surface is identical to the restriction of the resulting surface to the original surface domain,
Returns
true if successful.

int *  hint = nullptr,
int *  dtype = nullptr,
double  cos_angle_tolerance = ON_DEFAULT_ANGLE_TOLERANCE_COSINE,
double  curvature_tolerance = ON_SQRT_EPSILON 
) const
virtual

Search for a derivatitive, tangent, or curvature discontinuity.

Parameters
dir[in] If 0, then "u" parameter is checked. If 1, then the "v" parameter is checked.
c[in] type of continity to test for.
t0[in] Search begins at t0. If there is a discontinuity at t0, it will be ignored. This makes it possible to repeatedly call GetNextDiscontinuity and step through the discontinuities.
t1[in] (t0 != t1) If there is a discontinuity at t1 is will be ingored unless c is a locus discontinuity type and t1 is at the start or end of the curve.
t[out] if a discontinuity is found, then *t reports the parameter at the discontinuity.
hint[in/out] if GetNextDiscontinuity will be called repeatedly, passing a "hint" with initial value *hint=0 will increase the speed of the search.
dtype[out] if not nullptr, *dtype reports the kind of discontinuity found at *t. A value of 1 means the first derivative or unit tangent was discontinuous. A value of 2 means the second derivative or curvature was discontinuous. A value of 0 means teh curve is not closed, a locus discontinuity test was applied, and t1 is at the start of end of the curve.
cos_angle_tolerance[in] default = cos(1 degree) Used only when c is ON::continuity::G1_continuous or ON::continuity::G2_continuous. If the cosine of the angle between two tangent vectors is <= cos_angle_tolerance, then a G1 discontinuity is reported.
curvature_tolerance[in] (default = ON_SQRT_EPSILON) Used only when c is ON::continuity::G2_continuous. If K0 and K1 are curvatures evaluated from above and below and |K0 - K1| > curvature_tolerance, then a curvature discontinuity is reported.
Returns

Parametric continuity tests c = (C0_continuous, ..., G2_continuous):

true if a parametric discontinuity was found strictly
between t0 and t1. Note well that all curves are
parametrically continuous at the ends of their domains.

Locus continuity tests c = (C0_locus_continuous, ...,G2_locus_continuous):

true if a locus discontinuity was found strictly between
t0 and t1 or at t1 is the at the end of a curve.
Note well that all open curves (IsClosed()=false) are locus
discontinuous at the ends of their domains.  All closed
curves (IsClosed()=true) are at least C0_locus_continuous at
the ends of their domains.

◆ GetNurbForm()

virtual int ON_Surface::GetNurbForm ( ON_NurbsSurface nurbs_surface,
double  tolerance = 0.0 
) const
virtual

Get a NURBS surface representation of this surface.

Parameters
nurbs_surface[out] NURBS representation returned here
tolerance[in] tolerance to use when creating NURBS representation.
s_subdomain[in] if not nullptr, then the NURBS representation for this portion of the surface is returned.
t_subdomain[in] if not nullptr, then the NURBS representation for this portion of the surface is returned.
Returns
0 unable to create NURBS representation with desired accuracy. 1 success - returned NURBS parameterization matches the surface's to wthe desired accuracy 2 success - returned NURBS point locus matches the surface's to the desired accuracy and the domain of the NURBS surface is correct. On However, This surface's parameterization and the NURBS surface parameterization may not match to the desired accuracy. This situation happens when getting NURBS representations of surfaces that have a transendental parameterization like spheres, cylinders, and cones.

This is a low-level virtual function. If you do not need the parameterization information provided by the return code, then ON_Surface::NurbsSurface may be easier to use.

◆ HasNurbForm()

virtual int ON_Surface::HasNurbForm ( ) const
virtual

Is there a NURBS surface representation of this surface.

Returns
0 unable to create NURBS representation with desired accuracy. 1 success - NURBS parameterization matches the surface's 2 success - NURBS point locus matches the surface's and the domain of the NURBS surface is correct. However, This surface's parameterization and the NURBS surface parameterization may not match. This situation happens when getting NURBS representations of surfaces that have a transendental parameterization like spheres, cylinders, and cones.

This is a low-level virtual function.
