◆ isValid()

bool AABBox::isValid ( ) const

This allows to detect empty (or freshly created) boxes with negative volume, or AABBs with only a single vertex (where the minimum and maximum extents are the same).

◆ negativeVertex()

Vec3f AABBox::negativeVertex ( Vec3f normal) const
  • returns the corresponding component of the maximum extents of the AABB if the component of the normal parameter is less than zero,
  • or the component of the minimum extents of the AABBox otherwise.

◆ positiveVertex()

Vec3f AABBox::positiveVertex ( Vec3f normal) const
  • returns the corresponding component of the minimum extents of the AABB if the component of the normal parameter is less than zero,
  • or the component of the maximum extents of the AABBox otherwise.
