Detailed Description

PxActor is the base class for the main simulation objects in the physics SDK.

The actor is owned by and contained in a PxScene.

Member Function Documentation

virtual PxActorFlags PxActor::getActorFlags ( ) const

pure virtual

Reads the PxActor flags.

See the list of flags PxActorFlag

Returns: The values of the PxActor flags.

See Also: PxActorFlag setActorFlag()

virtual PxAggregate* PxActor::getAggregate ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the aggregate the actor might be a part of.

Returns: The aggregate the actor is a part of, or NULL if the actor does not belong to an aggregate.

See Also: PxAggregate

virtual PxActorClientBehaviorFlags PxActor::getClientBehaviorFlags ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the behavior bits of the actor.

The behavior bits determine which types of events the actor will broadcast to foreign clients.

See Also: PxActorClientBehaviorFlag setClientBehaviorFlags()

virtual PxDominanceGroup PxActor::getDominanceGroup ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the value set with setDominanceGroup().

Returns: The dominance group of this actor.

See Also: setDominanceGroup() PxDominanceGroup PxScene::setDominanceGroupPair()

virtual const char* PxActor::getName ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the name string set with setName().

Returns: Name string associated with object.

See Also: setName()

virtual PxClientID PxActor::getOwnerClient ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the owner client that was specified with at creation time.

This value cannot be changed once the object is placed into the scene.

See Also: PxClientID PxScene::createClient()

virtual PxScene* PxActor::getScene ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the scene which this actor belongs to.

Returns: Owner Scene. NULL if not part of a scene.

See Also: PxScene

virtual PxActorType::Enum PxActor::getType ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the type of actor.

Returns: The actor type of the actor.

See Also: PxActorType

virtual PxBounds3 PxActor::getWorldBounds ( float inflation = 1.01f ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the axis aligned bounding box enclosing the actor.

Parameters

[in] inflation Scale factor for computed world bounds. Box extents are multiplied by this value.

Returns: The actor's bounding box.

See Also: PxBounds3

Implemented in PxCloth.

virtual bool PxActor::isKindOf ( const char * superClass ) const

inlineprotectedvirtual

Returns whether a given type name matches with the type of this instance.

Reimplemented from PxBase.

Reimplemented in PxCloth, PxRigidBody, PxParticleBase, PxRigidDynamic, PxRigidActor, PxParticleFluid, PxArticulationLink, PxParticleSystem, and PxRigidStatic.

References PxBase::isKindOf().

Referenced by PxRigidActor::isKindOf(), PxParticleBase::isKindOf(), and PxCloth::isKindOf().

virtual void PxActor::release ( )

pure virtual

Deletes the actor.

Do not keep a reference to the deleted instance.

If the actor belongs to a PxAggregate object, it is automatically removed from the aggregate.

See Also: PxBase.release(), PxAggregate

Implements PxBase.

Implemented in PxCloth, PxRigidActor, and PxArticulationLink.

virtual void PxActor::setActorFlag	(	PxActorFlag::Enum	flag,
		bool	value
	)

pure virtual

Raises or clears a particular actor flag.

See the list of flags PxActorFlag

Sleeping: Does NOT wake the actor up automatically.

Parameters

[in]	flag	The PxActor flag to raise(set) or clear. See PxActorFlag.
[in]	value	The boolean value to assign to the flag.

Default: PxActorFlag::eVISUALIZATION

See Also: PxActorFlag getActorFlags()

virtual void PxActor::setActorFlags ( PxActorFlags inFlags )

pure virtual

sets the actor flags

See the list of flags PxActorFlag

See Also: PxActorFlag setActorFlag()

virtual void PxActor::setClientBehaviorFlags ( PxActorClientBehaviorFlags )

pure virtual

Sets the behavior bits of the actor.

The behavior bits determine which types of events the actor will broadcast to foreign clients. The actor will always send notice for all possible events to its own owner client. By default it will not send any events to any other clients. If the user however raises a bit flag for any event type using this function, that event will then be sent also to any other clients which are programmed to listed to foreign actor events of that type.

Default: 0

See Also: PxClientID PxActorClientBehaviorFlag PxScene::setClientBehaviorFlags()

virtual void PxActor::setDominanceGroup ( PxDominanceGroup dominanceGroup )

pure virtual

Assigns dynamic actors a dominance group identifier.

PxDominanceGroup is a 5 bit group identifier (legal range from 0 to 31).

The PxScene::setDominanceGroupPair() lets you set certain behaviors for pairs of dominance groups. By default every dynamic actor is created in group 0.

Default: 0

Sleeping: Changing the dominance group does NOT wake the actor up automatically.

Parameters

[in] dominanceGroup The dominance group identifier. Range: [0..31]

See Also: getDominanceGroup() PxDominanceGroup PxScene::setDominanceGroupPair()

virtual void PxActor::setName ( const char * name )

pure virtual

Sets a name string for the object that can be retrieved with getName().

This is for debugging and is not used by the SDK. The string is not copied by the SDK, only the pointer is stored.

Parameters

[in] name String to set the objects name to.

Default: NULL

See Also: getName()

virtual void PxActor::setOwnerClient ( PxClientID inClient )

pure virtual

Sets the owner client of an actor.

This cannot be done once the actor has been placed into a scene.

Default: PX_DEFAULT_CLIENT

See Also: PxClientID PxScene::createClient()
