NAME
gluNurbsSurface - define the shape of a NURBS surface
C SPECIFICATION
void gluNurbsSurface(GLUnurbs* nurb, GLint sKnotCount, GLfloat* sKnots,
GLint tKnotCount, GLfloat* tKnots, GLint sStride,
GLint tStride, GLfloat* control, GLint sOrder,
GLint tOrder, GLenum type);
PARAMETERS
nurb
Specifies the NURBS object (created with gluNewNurbsRenderer()).
sKnotCount
Specifies the number of knots in the parametric u direction.
sKnots
Specifies an array of sKnotCount nondecreasing knot values in the
parametric u direction.
tKnotCount
Specifies the number of knots in the parametric v direction.
tKnots
Specifies an array of tKnotCount nondecreasing knot values in the
parametric v direction.
sStride
Specifies the offset (as a number of single-precision
floating-point values) between successive control points in the
parametric u direction in control.
tStride
Specifies the offset (in single-precision floating-point values)
between successive control points in the parametric v direction in
control.
control
Specifies an array containing control points for the NURBS surface.
The offsets between successive control points in the parametric u
and v directions are given by sStride and tStride.
sOrder
Specifies the order of the NURBS surface in the parametric u
direction. The order is one more than the degree, hence a surface
that is cubic in u has a u order of 4.
tOrder
Specifies the order of the NURBS surface in the parametric v
direction. The order is one more than the degree, hence a surface
that is cubic in v has a v order of 4.
type
Specifies type of the surface. type can be any of the valid
two-dimensional evaluator types (such as GLU_MAP2_VERTEX_3 or
GLU_MAP2_COLOR_4).
DESCRIPTION
Use gluNurbsSurface within a NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline)
surface definition to describe the shape of a NURBS surface (before any
trimming). To mark the beginning of a NURBS surface definition, use the
gluBeginSurface() command. To mark the end of a NURBS surface
definition, use the gluEndSurface() command. Call gluNurbsSurface
within a NURBS surface definition only.
Positional, texture, and color coordinates are associated with a
surface by presenting each as a separate gluNurbsSurface between a
gluBeginSurface()/gluEndSurface() pair. No more than one call to
gluNurbsSurface for each of color, position, and texture data can be
made within a single gluBeginSurface()/gluEndSurface() pair. Exactly
one call must be made to describe the position of the surface (a type
of GLU_MAP2_VERTEX_3 or GLU_MAP2_VERTEX_4).
A NURBS surface can be trimmed by using the commands gluNurbsCurve()
and gluPwlCurve() between calls to gluBeginTrim() and gluEndTrim().
Note that a gluNurbsSurface with sKnotCount knots in the u direction
and tKnotCount knots in the v direction with orders sOrder and tOrder
must have (sKnotCount - sOrder) times (tKnotCount - tOrder) control
points.
EXAMPLE
The following commands render a textured NURBS surface with normals;
the texture coordinates and normals are also NURBS surfaces:
gluBeginSurface(nobj);
gluNurbsSurface(nobj, ..., GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_2);
gluNurbsSurface(nobj, ..., GL_MAP2_NORMAL);
gluNurbsSurface(nobj, ..., GL_MAP2_VERTEX_4);
gluEndSurface(nobj);
