Detailed Description

class
HBaseView: public HUpdateListener, public HMouseListener, public HObjectManipulationListener The HBaseView class defines and manages a view of model information.
The HBaseView class stores view-specific information and provides a high level interface for managing viewing attributes. A view typically references an HBaseModel object to define a view of a model.
This class encapsulates a HOOPS segment associated with an instance of a HOOPS driver. This type of segment defines a connection to a device (i.e. OpenGL, X11, GDI, etc.). Its Init method creates a default segment structure under the driver instance segment, which is used to manage the inclusion of the HOOPS Include Library segment associated with HBaseModel, lights for the scene, and segments containing camera and window attributes used for temporary ‘rubberband’ graphics.
The HBaseView object has associations with the following objects:
It also implements the following viewing manipulations by setting the appropriate HOOPS camera attributes:
- Fit the view’s camera to the model’s extents.
- Fit the view’s camera to the extents of the current selection set.
- Fit the view’s camera to the extents of the entire world.
- Set the view to default angles (XY, YZ, XZ target planes).
It includes interfaces for managing:
- Rendering methods (antialiasing, shadows, capping lines/faces, etc…)
- Hidden Surface Removal Algorithms
- Lighting Interpolation
- Camera Projection
- Constant Framerate Logic

HBaseView(HBaseModel *model, char const *alias = 0, char const *driver_type = 0, char const *instance_name = 0, void *window_handle = 0, void *colormap = 0, void *clip_override = 0, void *window_handle_2 = 0, char const *driver_path = 0) Constructs an HBaseView object.
Parameters: - model – A pointer to the HBaseModel object, which defines the model to viewed by this HBaseView object. If model is null, then the view will not reference any external part of the HOOPS segment tree, and can only view geometry that is created directly underneath the HBaseView object’s ‘scene’ segment
- alias – A character pointer denoting the HOOPS alias representing the driver instance segment encapsulated by this HBaseView object
- driver_type – A character pointer denoting the type of HOOPS driver instance that should be created to correspond with this HBaseView object. See the Device Guide for a list of available drivers.
- instance_name – A character pointer denoting the name of the HOOPS driver instance associated with this HBaseView object. For example, this might be ‘window’ if driver_type is ‘msw’, or ‘unix:0.0’ if driver_type is ‘x11’ If either driver_type or instance_name are null, HOOPS will use default values obtained from the unique hDB HOOPS MVO object.
- window_handle – This identifies the handle of the precreated native window system window (X11 or GDI) which the HOOPS driver instance segment should draw into. HOOPS will not handle any events for this window if it is passed in. If window_handle is null, HOOPS will automatically create a native window, and manage its updating as well as all events.
- colormap – This identifies a native window system colormap which HOOPS will utilize when allocating and managing colors. If null, HOOPS will creates its own system colormap as necessary.
- clip_override – This identifies a pointer to a clip override array.
- window_handle_2 – This identifies a window handle to be used for use window id2.
- driver – path If provided this driver path will be used rather than an internally generated one.

-
virtual void
SetHandedness(HandednessMode mode, bool emit_message = false) This method sets the handedness of the world coordinate system. Note that this is very different from polygon handedness. A “left-handed” Cartesian coordinate system is one in which, if you curl the fingers of your left hand from the X axis towards the Y axis, your thumb will point in the direction of the Z axis. This means your viewing camera is set up so that your X axis points to the right on the screen and the Y axis points straight up, then the Z axis will go into the screen. A “right-handed” coordinate system is just the same, except that Z axis will be in the direction of your right hand’s thumb. If the camera is set up with X and Y as above, the Z axis will point out of the screen.
Parameters: - mode – An enumerated type indicating the world handedness.
- emit_message – Indicates that a message should be sent to the emit_message_function
-
virtual void
SetHandednessFromMessage(char const *in_data, unsigned int data_length) This method sets the handedness of the world coordinate system based on the information in the message.

-
virtual bool
SetHandednessFromModel(bool remove_handedness_from_model = true, bool emit_message = false) This method checks if the root segment of the model has a handedness setting, and if so, makes that the handedness setting for this view. It also optionally allows removing the handedness setting from the model after setting handedness on the view. If no handedness setting is found on the model, this method will do nothing. This is a convenience function to help ensure the model and view have the same handedness setting to avoid potentially unexpected behavior when the handedness settings differ.
Parameters: - remove_handedness_from_model – If a handedness setting is in the model, remove it after setting it on the view.
- emit_message – Indicates that a message should be sent to the emit_message_function
Returns: True if a handedness setting was found on the model and then set on the view, false otherwise.

-
HandednessMode
GetPolygonHandednessMode()
-
void
SetPolygonHandednessMode(HandednessMode) This method sets the polygon handedness. In order to do a backplane cull, there must be some definition of a polygon’s “front” and “back” (or equivalently “inside face” and “outside
face”). This orientation is determined by the order in which the polygon’s vertices were originally defined, and the polygon handedness setting (and not the coordinate system handedness). If you wrap the fingers of the chosen hand along the vertices of the polygon, with your wrist at the first vertex specified and your fingertips at the last, then extend your thumb perpendicular to your fingers, by definition, your thumb is extending out of the front face of the polygon. The hand you use, left or right, determines the front and back of the polygon.
Parameters: HandednessMode – This mode will help HOOPS determine which the inside and outside of a given face.
-
bool
GetLodMode() Returns: True if the Level-Of-Detail mode is enabled or false if it is disabled.
-
void
SetLodMode(bool onoff) This method enables or disables the Level-Of-Detail. LOD is an optimization that involves simplifying objects that have facetted representations so that they will be drawn using a smaller number of triangles. As a result, LOD can improve performance by an order of magnitude while maintaining the visual integrity of the model.
Parameters: onoff – If true, LOD is enabled. If false, it is disabled.
-
inline bool
GetSpritingMode() const Returns: True if spriting is enabled and false if otherwise.
-
inline void
SetSpritingMode(bool onoff) This method allows you to enables or disables spriting. If the spriting mode is turned on, it allows other classes in MVO to set the quick moves heuristic option to spriting for a segment that will be changing rapidly over a certain period time. This lets HOOPS render a scene more quickly because it updates only the changing geometry leaving the rest of the scene unchanged.
Parameters: onoff – Pass true if you wish to turn on spriting. Pass false, if you wish to turn it off.
-
