Detailed Description

template<typename T>
struct gf::Vector< T, 4 >

A 4D vector.

This specialization of gf::Vector handles the 4-dimension spaces. It can be accessed with various representations:

the generic representation with the data member
the (x,y,z,w) representation, used for generic coordinates in the 4D space
the (r,g,b,a) representation, used for RGBA colors

Several common typedef are defined:

gf::Vector4i with int as T
gf::Vector4u with unsigned as T
gf::Vector4z with std::size_t as T
gf::Vector4f with float as T
gf::Vector4d with double as T
gf::Vector4b with bool as T

For colors, some additional typedef are defined:

gf::Color4f with float as T
gf::Color4u with uint8_t as T

Usage example:

gf::Vector4f v1(98.0f, 75.0f, 23.0f);
v1.x = 57.0f;
gf::Vector4f v2 = v1 * 5.0f;
gf::Vector4f v3 = v1 + v2;
gf::Color4u opaqueGreen(0x00, 0xFF, 0x00, 0xFF);

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename T >

gf::Vector< T, 4 >::Vector ( )

default

Default constructor.

This constructor is defaulted so that this type is trivial.

template<typename T >

gf::Vector< T, 4 >::Vector ( T val )

inlineexplicit

Constructor that fills the vector with a value.

This constructor takes a value and fills the entire vector with this value. Care must be taken when calling this constructor:

gf::Vector<int, 4> vecOK(42); // OK, vector is filled with 42

gf::Vector<int, 4> vecKO{42}; // KO, vector is initialized with a 42 in the first coordinate

Parameters

val	The value to fill the vector with

template<typename T >

gf::Vector< T, 4 >::Vector ( T * array )

inlineexplicit

Constructor that takes an array.

This constructor can ease conversion from other math libraries. The array must contain enough data for 4 dimensions.

float array[4] = { 1.0f, -1.0f, 0.5f, 0.0f };

gf::Vector<float, 4> vec(array);

Parameters

array An array with the values of the vector

template<typename T >

constexpr gf::Vector< T, 4 >::Vector	(	T	x,
		T	y,
		T	z,
		T	w
	)

inline

Constructor that takes 4 components.

Parameters

x	The first component
y	The second component
z	The third component
w	The fourth component

template<typename T >

gf::Vector< T, 4 >::Vector ( const Vector< T, 4 > & other )

default

Default copy constructor.

This constructor is defaulted so that this type is trivial.

Parameters

other The vector to copy from

template<typename T >

template<typename U >

gf::Vector< T, 4 >::Vector ( const Vector< U, 4 > & other )

inline

Converting copy constructor.

Parameters

other The vector to copy from
