Synopsis
PDX_MSGT gdx_GetRevSurfContinuity(long option, MDA_PTR db_ptr, double *cont_toler, int *u_continuity, int *v_continuity)
Purpose
Get the GDX Revolved Surface continuity.
Description
Determines the minimum continuity between all the segments in the GDX revolved surface entity to within the cont_toler tolerance. The u_continuity and v_continuity values can vary from -1 for discontinuous to a maximium of generatrix curve in U and 2 in V. The GDX revolved surface entity must be a valid GDX definition.
Input
option
Options &d GDX_GTEST Test for G continuity for derivatives to 2
db_ptr
The GDX revolved surface 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
u_continuity
The U level of continuity (-1 to generatrix curve degere).
v_continuity
The V level of continuity (2)
Tolerances
NORMAL_MAG_TOL
