NAME

       SbBox3f -

       The SbBox3f class is an abstraction for an axis aligned 3 dimensional box.

       This box abstraction class is used by other entities in the Coin library for data exchange
       and storage. It provides a representation of the defining corners of a box in 3D space,
       with the sides aligned with the 3 principal axes.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

   SbBox3f::SbBox3f (void) [inline]
       The default constructor makes an empty box.

   SbBox3f::SbBox3f (floatminx, floatminy, floatminz, floatmaxx, floatmaxy, floatmaxz) [inline]
       Constructs a box with the given corners.

       minx should be less than maxx, miny should be less than maxy and minz should be less than
       maxz if you want to make a valid box.

   SbBox3f::SbBox3f (const SbVec3f &minval, const SbVec3f &maxval) [inline]
       Constructs a box with the given corners.

       The coordinates of min should be less than the coordinates of max if you want to make a
       valid box.

           getBounds().

   void SbBox3f::getBounds (float &minx, float &miny, float &minz, float &maxx, float &maxy,
       float &maxz) const [inline]
       Returns the box boundaries.

           setBounds().

   void SbBox3f::getBounds (SbVec3f &minobj, SbVec3f &maxobj) const [inline]
       Returns the box corner points.

       See Also:
           setBounds().

   const SbVec3f & SbBox3f::getMin (void) const [inline]
       Returns the minimum point. This should usually be the lower left corner point of the box.

       See Also:
           getOrigin(), getMax().

   SbVec3f & SbBox3f::getMin (void) [inline]
       Returns a modifiable reference the minimum point.

   const SbVec3f & SbBox3f::getMax (void) const [inline]
       Returns the maximum point. This should usually be the upper right corner point of the box.

       Returns a modifiable reference the maximum point.

   void SbBox3f::extendBy (const SbVec3f &point)
       Extend the boundaries of the box by the given point, i.e. make the point fit inside the
       box if it isn't already so.

   void SbBox3f::extendBy (const SbBox3f &box)
       Extend the boundaries of the box by the given box parameter. This is equal to calling
       extendBy() twice with the corner points.

   void SbBox3f::transform (const SbMatrix &matrix)

       Doesn't touch illegal/empty boxes.

   void SbBox3f::makeEmpty (void)
       Marks this as an empty box.

       See Also:
           isEmpty().

   SbBool SbBox3f::isEmpty (void) const [inline]
       Check if this has been marked as an empty box.

       See Also:
           makeEmpty().

   SbBool SbBox3f::hasVolume (void) const [inline]
       Check if the box has been correctly specified and by that virtue has volume.

   float SbBox3f::getVolume (void) const [inline]
       Check if the box has 'positive' volume, i.e. the lower left corner is actually lower and
       more left than the maximum point.

   SbBool SbBox3f::intersect (const SbVec3f &point) const
       Check if the given point lies within the boundaries of this box.

   SbBool SbBox3f::intersect (const SbBox3f &box) const

       Return the point on the box closest to the given point.

   SbBool SbBox3f::outside (const SbMatrix &mvp, int &cullbits) const
       Check if the box is outside the view volume defined by the mvp matrix. Sets cullbits
       according to which planes we're inside or outside. Bit 0 (0x1) is cleared when box is
       completely inside left and right clipping planes. Bit 1 (0x2) is cleared when box is
       inside top and bottom clipping planes. Bit 2 (0x4) is cleared when box is inside near and
       far clipping planes.

       Returns TRUE if box is completely outside one of the clipping planes. FALSE otherwise.

   SbVec3f SbBox3f::getCenter (void) const [inline]
       Returns the center point of the box.

   void SbBox3f::getOrigin (float &x0, float &y0, float &z0) const [inline]
       Returns the coordinates of the box origin (i.e. the lower left corner).

       See Also:
           getMin().

   void SbBox3f::getSize (float &dx, float &dy, float &dz) const [inline]
       Returns width, height and depth of box.

   SbVec3f SbBox3f::getSize (void) const [inline]
       Returns width, height and depth of box as a 3D vector.

       Since:
           Coin 3.0

   void SbBox3f::getSpan (const SbVec3f &dir, float &dmin, float &dmax) const
       Find the span of the box in the given direction (i.e. how much room in the given direction
       the box needs). The distance is returned as the minimum and maximum distance from origo to
       the closest and furthest plane defined by the direction vector and each of the box'
       corners. The difference between these values gives the span.

   void SbBox3f::print (FILE *fp) const
       Dump the state of this object to the file stream. Only works in debug version of library,
       method does nothing in an optimized compile.
