Description

AABB provides an 3D Axis-Aligned Bounding Box. It consists of a position and a size, and several utility functions. It is typically used for simple (fast) overlap tests.

Member Function Description

encloses

• bool encloses ( AABB with )

Return true if this AABB completely encloses another one.

expand

• AABB expand ( Vector3 to_point )

Return this AABB expanded to include a given point.

get_area

• real get_area ( )

Get the area inside the AABB

get_endpoint

• Vector3 get_endpoint ( int idx )

Get the position of the 8 endpoints of the AABB in space.

get_longest_axis

• Vector3 get_longest_axis ( )

Return the normalized longest axis of the AABB

get_longest_axis_index

• int get_longest_axis_index ( )

Return the index of the longest axis of the AABB (according to Vector3::AXIS* enum).

get_longest_axis_size

• real get_longest_axis_size ( )

Return the scalar length of the longest axis of the AABB.

get_shortest_axis

• Vector3 get_shortest_axis ( )

Return the normalized shortest axis of the AABB

get_shortest_axis_index

• int get_shortest_axis_index ( )

Return the index of the shortest axis of the AABB (according to Vector3::AXIS* enum).

get_shortest_axis_size

• real get_shortest_axis_size ( )

Return the scalar length of the shortest axis of the AABB.

get_support

• Vector3 get_support ( Vector3 dir )

Return the support point in a given direction. This is useful for collision detection algorithms.

grow

• AABB grow ( real by )

Return a copy of the AABB grown a given a mount of units towards all the sides.

has_no_area

• bool has_no_area ( )

Return true if the AABB is flat or empty.

has_no_surface

• bool has_no_surface ( )

Return true if the AABB is empty.

has_point

• bool has_point ( Vector3 point )

Return true if the AABB contains a point.

intersection

• AABB intersection ( AABB with )

Return the intersection between two AABBs. An empty AABB (size 0,0,0) is returned on failure.

intersects

• bool intersects ( AABB with )

Return true if the AABB overlaps with another.

intersects_plane

• bool intersects_plane ( Plane plane )

Return true if the AABB is at both sides of a plane.

merge

• AABB merge ( AABB with )

Combine this AABB with another one, a larger one is returned that contains both.

AABB

• void AABB ( Vector3 pos, Vector3 size )

Optional constructor, accepts position and size.
