.SH DESCRIPTION
.SS Purpose
\s-2NON-UNIFORM B-SPLINE CURVE\s+2
creates a structure element containing
the definition of a non-uniform
B-spline curve. The curve may be
rational or non-rational.
.SS C Input Parameters
.IP \fIorder\fR
The order of the curve. The degree of the curve's basic functions is one
less than \fIorder\fP.
.IP \fIknots\fR
A pointer to a Pfloat_list structure containing a non-decreasing sequence of
real numbers specifying the curve's knot vector.
Pfloat_list is defined in phigs.h as follows:
.sp .2
.nf
.ta .5i +1i +1i
.sp .2
typedef struct {
.sp .2
Pint num_floats; /* number of Pfloats in list */
Pfloat *floats; /* list of floats */
.sp .2
} Pfloat_list;
.fi
.IP \fIrationality\fR
The rationality of the curve. Prational is defined in phigs.h as follows:
.sp .2
.nf
.ta .5i +\w'PNON_RATIONAL, 'u
.sp .2
typedef enum {
.sp .2
PNON_RATIONAL = 0,
PRATIONAL = 1
.sp .2
} Prational;
.fi
.IP "\fIcpoints\fR"
A pointer to a Ppoint_list34 structure containing the list of the curve's
control points. The points are specified in Modelling Coordinates.
Ppoint_list34 is defined in phigs.h as follows:
.sp .2
.nf
.ta .5i +.5i +.75i +1i
.sp .2
typedef struct { /* list of 3D or 4D points */
.sp .2
Pint num_points; /* number of control points */
union {
Ppoint3 *point3d; /* array of 3D points */
Ppoint4 *point4d; /* array of 4D points */
} points;
.sp .2
} Ppoint_list34;
.fi
.IP
The point4d member of the points union is used if rationality
is \s-2PRATIONAL\s+2; otherwise, the point3d member is used.
.fi
.bp
.IP
Ppoint3 is defined in phigs.h as follows:
.sp .2
.nf
.ta .5i +\w'Pfloat 'u +\w'x; 'u
.sp .2
typedef struct {
.sp .2
Pfloat x; /* x coordinate */
Pfloat y; /* y coordinate */
Pfloat z; /* z coordinate */
.sp .2
} Ppoint3;
.IP
.fi
Ppoint4 is defined in phigs.h as follows:
.sp .2
.nf
.ta .5i +\w'Pfloat 'u +\w'x; 'u
.sp .2
typedef struct {
.sp .2
Pfloat x; /* x coordinate */
Pfloat y; /* y coordinate */
Pfloat z; /* z coordinate */
Pfloat w; /* w coordinate */
.sp .2
} Ppoint4;
.fi
.IP "\fImin, max\fR"
The parameter limits specifying the range over which the curve is to be
evaluated.
.SS Execution
.LP
Depending on the edit mode, a \s-2NON-UNIFORM B-SPLINE CURVE\s+2 element is
either inserted into the open structure after the element
pointer, or replaces the element pointed at by the element pointer. The
element pointer is then updated to point to the
\s-2NON-UNIFORM B-SPLINE CURVE\s+2 structure element.
.LP
The spline order must be greater than zero.
Curves of unsupported order will be displayed by drawing a polyline
connecting the control points.
Curves of order one are drawn as a polymarker using the current polymarker
attributes.
.LP
The knots must form a non-decreasing sequence of numbers.
.LP
The rationality selector parameter may have the enumerated value
\fIRational\fP or \fINon-rational\fP.
When Rational is specified, the control points are specified as 4D
homogeneous modelling coordinates. When Non-rational is specified,
the control points
are 3D \s-2PHIGS\s+2 modelling coordinates.
.LP
The number of control points must be at least as large as the
order. The number of control points plus the spline order must equal
the number of knots.
.LP
.LP
At structure traversal time, a non-uniform B-spline curve primitive is
drawn using the extended polyline attributes.
See \s-2SET POLYLINE REPRESENTATION PLUS\s+2 and
\s-2SET CURVE APPROXIMATION CRITERIA\s+2
for more information on display attributes.
.SS Attributes Applied
The attributes listed below are used to display the
\s-2NON-UNIFORM B-SPLINE CURVE\s+2 primitive when the structure is traversed. The Aspect Source
Flags (\s-2ASF\s+2s) tell where to access the output display attributes.
These attributes can come directly from the traversal state list,
or they can be accessed indirectly, using the appropriate index
in the traversal state list and the corresponding bundled
representation in the PHIGS workstation state list.
