Detailed Description

Represents geometry of a line in two-dimensional space.

Note this the theoretical line, i.e. it goes infinitely. For a line segment with endpoints, use ArLineSegment.

Member Function Documentation

virtual double ArLine::getPerpDist (  const ArPose  pose  )  const [inline, virtual]

Calculate the distance from the given point to (its projection on) this line segment. Parameters: pose  the the pose to find the perp point of Returns: if the pose does not intersect line it will return < 0 if the pose intersects the segment it will return the distance to the intersection

bool ArLine::getPerpPoint (  ArPose  pose, ArPose *  perpPoint )  const [inline]

Determine the intersection point between this line segment, and a perpendicular line passing through the given pose (i.e. projects the given pose onto this line segment.). If there is no intersection, false is returned. Parameters: pose  The X and Y components of this pose object indicate the point to project onto this line segment. perpPoint  The X and Y components of this pose object are set to indicate the intersection point Returns: true if an intersection was found and perpPoint was modified, false otherwise. Java and Python Wrappers: Not available in Java or Python wrapper libraries.

virtual double ArLine::getPerpSquaredDist (  const ArPose  pose  )  const [inline, virtual]

Calculate the squared distance from the given point to (its projection on) this line segment. Parameters: pose  the the pose to find the perp point of Returns: if the pose does not intersect line it will return < 0 if the pose intersects the segment it will return the distance to the intersection

bool ArLine::intersects (  const ArLine *  line, ArPose *  pose )  const [inline]

finds the intersection of this line with another line Parameters: line  the line to check if it intersects with this line pose  if the lines intersect, the pose is set to the location Returns: true if they intersect, false if they do not
