Synopsis
PDX_MSGT gdx_GetCompositeContinuity(long option, MDA_PTR db_ptr, double cont_toler[4], int *continuity)
Purpose
Get the GDX composite curve continuity.
Description
Determines the minimum continuity between all the segments in the GDX composite curve entity to within the cont_toler tolerance. The continuity value can vary from -1 for discontinuous to a maximium of 2. The GDX composite curve must be a valid GDX definition.
Input
option
GDX_GTEST
Test for G continuity for derivatives to 2
GDX_SETTRANS
Set the curve transition codes
db_ptr
The GDX composite entity database pointer.
cont_toler
The continuity tolerance. The distance between the derivatives must be less then or equal this value to have derivative continuity .nf [0] = Model Space Distance (G0) [1] = Radian angular difference (G1) [2] = Curvature difference (G2) [3] = Normalized derivative difference .fi
Output
continuity
The level of continuity (-1 to 2).
Tolerances
NORMAL_MAG_TOL
Return
GDX_NOERR
Low level error return
