Constructor & Destructor Documentation

gp_Parab::gp_Parab ( )

Creates an indefinite Parabola.

gp_Parab::gp_Parab ( const gp_Ax2 A2,
const Standard_Real  Focal 
)

Creates a parabola with its local coordinate system "A2" and it's focal length "Focal". The XDirection of A2 defines the axis of symmetry of the parabola. The YDirection of A2 is parallel to the directrix of the parabola. The Location point of A2 is the vertex of the parabola Raises ConstructionError if Focal < 0.0 Raised if Focal < 0.0.

gp_Parab::gp_Parab ( const gp_Ax1 D,
const gp_Pnt F 
)

D is the directrix of the parabola and F the focus point. The symmetry axis (XAxis) of the parabola is normal to the directrix and pass through the focus point F, but its location point is the vertex of the parabola. The YAxis of the parabola is parallel to D and its location point is the vertex of the parabola. The normal to the plane of the parabola is the cross product between the XAxis and the YAxis.

Member Function Documentation

const gp_Ax1& gp_Parab::Axis ( ) const

Returns the main axis of the parabola. It is the axis normal to the plane of the parabola passing through the vertex of the parabola.

gp_Ax1 gp_Parab::Directrix ( ) const

Computes the directrix of this parabola. The directrix is:

  • a line parallel to the "Y Direction" of the local coordinate system of this parabola, and
  • located on the negative side of the axis of symmetry, at a distance from the apex which is equal to the focal length of this parabola. The directrix is returned as an axis (a gp_Ax1 object), the origin of which is situated on the "X Axis" of this parabola.
Standard_Real gp_Parab::Focal ( ) const

Returns the distance between the vertex and the focus of the parabola.

gp_Pnt gp_Parab::Focus ( ) const
  • Computes the focus of the parabola.
const gp_Pnt& gp_Parab::Location ( ) const

Returns the vertex of the parabola. It is the "Location" point of the coordinate system of the parabola.

void gp_Parab::Mirror ( const gp_Ax1 A1)
void gp_Parab::Mirror ( const gp_Ax2 A2)
gp_Parab gp_Parab::Mirrored ( const gp_Pnt P) const

Performs the symmetrical transformation of a parabola with respect to the point P which is the center of the symmetry.

gp_Parab gp_Parab::Mirrored ( const gp_Ax1 A1) const

Performs the symmetrical transformation of a parabola with respect to an axis placement which is the axis of the symmetry.

gp_Parab gp_Parab::Mirrored ( const gp_Ax2 A2) const

Performs the symmetrical transformation of a parabola with respect to a plane. The axis placement A2 locates the plane of the symmetry (Location, XDirection, YDirection).

Standard_Real gp_Parab::Parameter ( ) const

Computes the parameter of the parabola. It is the distance between the focus and the directrix of the parabola. This distance is twice the focal length.

void gp_Parab::SetAxis ( const gp_Ax1 A1)

Modifies this parabola by redefining its local coordinate system so that.

  • its origin and "main Direction" become those of the axis A1 (the "X Direction" and "Y Direction" are then recomputed in the same way as for any gp_Ax2) Raises ConstructionError if the direction of A1 is parallel to the previous XAxis of the parabola.
void gp_Parab::SetFocal ( const Standard_Real  Focal)

Changes the focal distance of the parabola. Raises ConstructionError if Focal < 0.0.

void gp_Parab::SetLocation ( const gp_Pnt P)

Changes the location of the parabola. It is the vertex of the parabola.
