Detailed Description

Interface representing a polygon mesh.

Polygon meshes are represented in an indexed format where polygons are a finite sequence of indices pointing into an array of points. Points and polygons are stored with consecutive indices, starting with the index 0 each. Both, points and polygons, can then be referred to by their index numbers. For type safety, polygon indices are represented using mi::neuraylib::Polygon_handle instead of plain integers.

This interface provides methods to add points and polygons, and to specify the location of the points. It does not directly provide methods to map the vertices of the polygons to the points. This needs to be done via the polygon connectivity (see edit_mesh_connectivity()).

Polygons with holes can be represented, too. The holes are represented in the same way as polygons themselves, but a flag (see add_polygon()) distinguishes them from the polygons (or more precise, from the outer boundary of polygons). Note that the orientation of holes does not matter.

In addition to regular attributes (see mi::neuraylib::IAttribute_set), meshes can also have mesh attributes. In contrast to regular attributes which exist only once per object, mesh attributes are always a vector of values with one vector element per primitive, per point, or per vertex (see mi::neuraylib::Mesh_attribute_name and mi::neuraylib::IAttribute_vector for details).

Per-primitive attributes can be directly used with the methods of this interface, namely create_attribute_vector(), access_attribute_vector(), edit_attribute_vector(), and attach_attribute_vector().

Per-point and per-vertex attributes require the use of a connectivity instead. Per-point attributes use the mesh connectivity (see edit_mesh_connectivity() and related methods), whereas per-vertex attributes use custom connectivities (see create_connectivity() and related methods).

This mesh interface supports the incremental construction of a mesh. Points and polygons can be added one at a time and in alternating order, if so desired. The only constraint is that polygons shall only refer to point indices of points that have been added already.

The deletion of once added elements is not supported.

See also the "approx" attribute on mi::neuraylib::IAttribute_set for information how to control the tessellation of the polygon mesh.

Example: Create a mesh with a single quad with one normal and four texture coordinates

// The points of the quad
mi::Float32_3 point[4];
point[0] = mi::Float32_3( 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);

point[0] = mi::Float32_3( 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
 
// The normal of the quad
mi::Float32_3 normal( 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
 
// The texture coordinates for the quad

tex_coord[0] = mi::Float32_2( 1.0f, 0.0f);
tex_coord[0] = mi::Float32_2( 1.0f, 1.0f);
