Inherited By:
None.
Purpose:
TGHermiteSpline3D is the 3-D equivalent of TGHermiteSpline. TGHermiteSpline3D is one of several lightweight classes derived from TGCurve3D whose sole purpose is to disambiguate the constructors for cubic splines having similar arguments. Applications shouldn't define variables of type TGHermiteSpline3D. Instead, use TGCurve3D and rely on TGHermiteSpline3D only for its constructor. For example:
TGCurve3D myCurve =TGHermiteSpline3D( points );
This creates a curve as a cubic matrix spline, where the curve is defined by point/tangent pairs. The number of points must be a multiple of four, or else an assertion occurs.
Instantiation:
Allocate on the heap or the stack.
Deriving Classes:
Do not derive from this class.
Concurrency:
Not multithread safe.
Resource Use:
No special requirements.
- TGHermiteSpline3D (const TGPoint3DArray & points)
- TGHermiteSpline3D ()
- TGHermiteSpline3D (const TGHermiteSpline3D &)
Interface Category:
API.
Purpose:
- Creates a curve as a cubic matrix spline, where the curve is defined by point/tangent pairs.
- Default constructor.
- Copy constructor.
Calling Context:
- Call this function directly.

None.
Exceptions:
Throws no exceptions, passes all exceptions through.
Concurrency:
Not multithread safe.
Other Considerations:
None.
