Detailed Description

The Joint object represents a Kinematic Joint property of a ChainBone or ChainEffector object.

ChainElement,ChainBone, ChainRoot

Example:

        using namespace XSI;
        Application app;
        Model root = app.GetActiveSceneRoot();

        Null null1;
        root.AddNull(L"UpVectorReference",null1);

        Null null2;
        root.AddNull(L"PreferredAxisPreference",null2);

        ChainRoot myChainRoot;
        root.Add3DChain(    MATH::CVector3(0,0,0),
                            MATH::CVector3(1,0,0),
                            MATH::CVector3(0,0,1),
                            L"",
                            myChainRoot);

        CRefArray boneRefArray = myChainRoot.GetBones();

        Joint myJoint(ChainBone(boneRefArray.GetItem(0)).GetJoint());

        myJoint.PutParameterValue(L"resplane",(LONG)siUpVectorPlane);

        myJoint.PutUpVectorReference(null1);

        myJoint.PutPreferredAxisReference(null2);

const [virtual]

Returns true if a given class type is compatible with this API class.

Parameters:

in_ClassID

class type.

Returns:

true if the class is compatible, false otherwise.

Reimplemented from Property.

siClassID GetClassID

Reimplemented from Property.

Joint& operator=

(

const Joint &

in_obj

)

Creates an object from another object. The newly created object is set to empty if the input object is not compatible.

Parameters:

in_obj

constant class object.

Returns:

The new Joint object.

Joint& operator=

(

const CRef &

in_ref

)

Creates an object from a reference object. The newly created object is set to empty if the input reference object is not compatible.

Parameters:

in_ref

constant class object.

Returns:

The new Joint object.

Reimplemented from Property.

X3DObject GetUpVectorReference

(

)

const

Returns the X3DObject object acting as the upvector reference.

Returns:
