static JointHingePtr create ( ) #

Constructor. Creates a hinge joint with an anchor at the origin of the world coordinates.

static JointHingePtr create ( const Ptr<Body> & body0, const Ptr<Body> & body1 ) #

Constructor. Creates a hinge joint connecting two given bodies. An anchor is placed between centers of mass of the bodies.

Arguments

const Ptr<Body> & body0 - First body to be connected with the joint.
const Ptr<Body> & body1 - Second body to be connected with the joint.

static JointHingePtr create ( const Ptr<Body> & body0, const Ptr<Body> & body1, const Math::Vec3 & anchor, const Math::vec3 & axis ) #

Constructor. Creates a hinge joint connecting two given bodies with specified axis coordinates and an anchor placed at specified coordinates.

Arguments

const Ptr<Body> & body0 - First body to be connected with the joint.
const Ptr<Body> & body1 - Second body to be connected with the joint.
const Math::Vec3 & anchor - Anchor coordinates.
const Math::vec3 & axis - Axis coordinates.

void setAngularAngle ( float angle ) #

Sets a target angle of the attached angular spring. The spring tries to rotate the connected bodies so that they make this angle.

Arguments

float angle - Angle in degrees. The provided value will be saturated in the range [-180; 180].

float getAngularAngle ( ) #

Returns the target angle of the attached angular spring. The spring tries to rotate the connected bodies so that they make this angle.

Return value

Target angle in degrees.

void setAngularDamping ( float damping ) #

Sets an angular damping of the joint.

Arguments

float damping - Angular damping. If a negative value is provided, 0 will be used instead.

float getAngularDamping ( ) #

Returns the angular damping of the joint.

Return value

Angular damping.

void setAngularLimitFrom ( float from ) #

Sets a low rotation limit angle. Rotation limit specifies how much a connected body can rotate around the joint axis.

Arguments

float from - Angle in degrees. The provided value will be saturated in the range [-180; 180].

float getAngularLimitFrom ( ) #

Returns the low rotation limit angle. Rotation limit specifies how much a connected body can rotate around the joint axis.

Return value

Low rotation limit angle in degrees.

void setAngularLimitTo ( float to ) #

Sets a high rotation limit angle. Rotation limit specifies how much a connected body can rotate around the joint axis.

Arguments

float to - Angle in degrees. The provided value will be saturated in the range [-180; 180].

float getAngularLimitTo ( ) #

Returns the high rotation limit angle. Rotation limit specifies how much a connected body can rotate around the joint axis.

Return value

High rotation limit angle in degrees.

void setAngularSpring ( float spring ) #

Sets a rigidity coefficient of the angular spring.

Arguments

float spring - Rigidity coefficient. If a negative value is provided, 0 will be used instead. 0 detaches the spring.

float getAngularSpring ( ) #

Returns the rigidity coefficient of the angular spring. 0 means that the spring is not attached.

Return value

Rigidity coefficient.

void setAngularTorque ( float torque ) #

Sets a maximum torque of the angular motor.

Arguments

float torque - Maximum torque. If a negative value is provided, 0 will be used instead. 0 detaches the motor.

float getAngularTorque ( ) #

Returns the maximum torque of the attached angular motor. 0 means that the motor is not attached.

Return value

Maximum torque.

void setAngularVelocity ( float velocity ) #

Sets a target velocity of the attached angular motor.

Arguments

float velocity - Velocity in radians per second.

float getAngularVelocity ( ) #

Returns the target velocity of the attached angular motor.

float getCurrentAngularVelocity ( ) #

Returns the current velocity of the motor, i.e. the difference between angular velocities of two bodies connected with a hinge relative the hinge axis.

Notice

This function returns the valid velocity only if both bodies are of BodyRigid type. Otherwise, 0 is returned.
