Detailed Description

A GUI plugin that demos the ignition::math::Matrix4<T>::LookAt function.

The plugin offers 3 input fields (XYZ) for each of 3 vectors: the position of the eye, the position of the target and the desired up direction. See more documentation on ignition math.

It works with the lookat_demo.world, and expects that world to have 3 models:

1. "frame": A model representing the resulting frame, the one which "looks at"
2. "target": A yellow sphere representing the target which is being "looked at"
3. "desired_z": A single axis, representing the desired Z axis.

Create()

static TPtr Create ( const std::string &  _filename, const std::string &  _name  )

inlinestaticinherited

a class method that creates a plugin from a file name.

It locates the shared library and loads it dynamically.

Parameters

[in]	_filename	the path to the shared library.
[in]	_name	short name of the plugin

Returns

Shared Pointer to this class type

GetFilename()

std::string GetFilename ( ) const

inlineinherited

Get the name of the handler.

GetHandle()

std::string GetHandle ( ) const

inlineinherited

Get the short name of the handler.

GetType()

PluginType GetType ( ) const

inlineinherited

Returns the type of the plugin.

Returns

type of the plugin

Load()

void Load ( sdf::ElementPtr  )

virtual

Load function.

Called when a plugin is first created. This function should not be blocking. This function will be called with an empty sdf element when a GUI plugin is loaded via a gui.ini file or via a command line argument.

Parameters

[in]

_sdf

Pointer the the SDF element of the plugin. This is the plugin SDF, <plugin ...>, and its children. It will be an empty element when loaded from INI file or command line argument.

Reimplemented from GUIPlugin.

LoadParam() [1/2]

void LoadParam ( const sdf::ElementPtr &  _sdf, const std::string &  _name, V &  _target, V  _defaultValue = V()  ) const

inlineprotectedinherited

Load parameter value from _sdf and store it to the given reference, using the supplied default value if the element in _sdf is not found.

A message is written using gzmsg reporting whether the default value was used or not.

Parameters

[in]	_sdf	The SDF element of the plugin.
[in]	_name	Name of a tag inside the SDF.
[out]	_target	The reference to store the param value to.
[in]	_defaultValue	The default value.

LoadParam() [2/2]

void LoadParam ( sdf::ElementPtr &  _sdf, const std::string &  _name, std::string &  _target, const char *  _defaultValue  ) const

inlineprotectedinherited

Load parameter value from _sdf and store it to the given reference, using the supplied default value if the element in _sdf is not found.

A message is written using gzmsg reporting whether the default value was used or not. String specialization to allow accepting const char* values for std::string parameters.

Parameters

[in]	_sdf	The SDF element of the plugin.
[in]	_name	Name of a tag inside the SDF.
[out]	_target	The reference to store the param value to.
[in]	_defaultValue	The default value.

paintEvent()

virtual void paintEvent ( QPaintEvent *  )
