Sample Code

 Scene s = new Scene("test.stl");

Mesh mesh = (Mesh)s.getRootNode().getChildNodes().get(0).getEntity();

//create a VertexDeclaration so we can get the TriMesh with memory layout exactly we want.

VertexDeclaration vd = new VertexDeclaration();

VertexField pos = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR3, VertexFieldSemantic.POSITION);

VertexField normal = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR3, VertexFieldSemantic.NORMAL);

VertexField uv = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR2, VertexFieldSemantic.UV);

//construct the TriMesh using specified vertex layout

TriMesh m = TriMesh.fromMesh(vd, mesh);

//print each vertex's position, normal and uv

for(Vertex vtx : m)

{

	Vector3 v_pos = vtx.readVector3(pos);

	Vector3 v_normal = vtx.readVector3(normal);

	Vector2 v_uv = vtx.readVector2(uv);

	System.out.printf("(%s), (%s), (%s)\n", v_pos, v_normal, v_uv);

}

Added member to class com.aspose.threed.entities.TriMesh

If your TriMesh instances come with an uncertain memory layout, you can use this method to construct a new instance with exactly needed memory layout.

 Scene s = new Scene("test.STL");

var mesh = (Mesh)s.RootNode.ChildNodes[0].Entity;

var originalTriMesh = TriMesh.FromMesh(mesh);

//create a VertexDeclaration so we can get the TriMesh with memory layout exactly we want.

VertexDeclaration vd = new VertexDeclaration();

VertexField pos = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR3, VertexFieldSemantic.POSITION);

VertexField normal = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR3, VertexFieldSemantic.NORMAL);

VertexField uv = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR2, VertexFieldSemantic.UV);

//If the original TriMesh's memory layout is not what you wanted, you can use CopyFrom to get a new instance

//with specified memory layout

TriMesh m = TriMesh.copyFrom(originalTriMesh, vd);

//print each vertex's position, normal and uv

for(Vertex vtx : m)

{

	Vector3 v_pos = vtx.readVector3(pos);

	Vector3 v_normal = vtx.readVector3(normal);

	Vector2 v_uv = vtx.readVector2(uv);

	System.out.printf("(%s), (%s), (%s)\n", v_pos, v_normal, v_uv);

}

Added member to class com.aspose.threed.entities.TriMesh

With this method, you can easily reconstruct the TriMesh instance from a byte array, like deserialization.

 /**

 * Create TriMesh from raw data

 * @param vd Vertex declaration, must contains at least one field.

 * @param vertices The input vertex data, the minimum length of the vertices must be greater or equal to vertex declaration's size

 * @param indices The triangle indices

 * @param generateVertexMapping Generate {@link com.aspose.threed.Vertex} for each vertex, which is not necessary for just serialization/deserialization.

 * @return The {@link com.aspose.threed.TriMesh} instance that encapsulated the input byte array.

 */

public static TriMesh fromRawData(VertexDeclaration vd, byte[] vertices, int[] indices, boolean generateVertexMapping)

Example Usage

 Scene s = new Scene("test.stl");

Mesh mesh = (Mesh)s.getRootNode().getChildNodes().get(0).getEntity();

VertexDeclaration vd = new VertexDeclaration();

VertexField pos = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR3, VertexFieldSemantic.POSITION);

VertexField normal = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR3, VertexFieldSemantic.NORMAL);

VertexField uv = vd.addField(VertexFieldDataType.F_VECTOR2, VertexFieldSemantic.UV);

TriMesh originalTriMesh = TriMesh.fromMesh(vd, mesh);

//If the original TriMesh's memory layout is not what you wanted, you can use CopyFrom to get a new instance

//with specified memory layout

byte[] verticesInBytes = originalTriMesh.verticesToArray();

int[][] indices = new int[1][];

originalTriMesh.indicesToArray(indices);

TriMesh m = TriMesh.fromRawData(vd, verticesInBytes, indices[0], true);

for(Vertex vtx : m)

{

	Vector3 v_pos = vtx.readVector3(pos);

	Vector3 v_normal = vtx.readVector3(normal);

	Vector2 v_uv = vtx.readVector2(uv);

	System.out.printf("(%s), (%s), (%s)\n", v_pos, v_normal, v_uv);

}

Added class com.aspose.threed.render.WindowHandle

This is used to encapsulate the native window handle for creating a render window.

Added member to class com.aspose.threed.render.renderfactory

 /**

\* Create a render target that renders to the native window.

\* @param parameters Render parameters to create the render window

\* @param handle The handle of the window to render

*/

public abstract IRenderWindow createRenderWindow(RenderParameters parameters, WindowHandle handle);

The old createRenderWindow is marked as Deprecated, to port the old code to this method, fix your old code like the following code snippet.

 //Renderer renderer = ... your renderer instance

//RenderParameters renderParameters = ... your render parameters

//Control control = ... your control for rendering.

//window = renderer.getRenderFactory().createRenderWindow(new RenderParameters(), shell.handle);

//The above code should be fixed like the following line, pass a Win32 handle.

window = renderer.getRenderFactory().createRenderWindow(new RenderParameters(), WindowHandle.fromWin32(shell.handle));

Added members to class com.aspose.threed.utilities.IOUtils

These are extension methods for writing Vector2/Vector3 to BinaryWriter.

 /**

\* Write the vector to the binary writer

\* @param writer Target binary writer

\* @param v Vector to write

*/

public static void write(BinaryWriter writer, Vector2 v)

   throws IOException;

/**

\* Write the vector to the binary writer

\* @param writer Target binary writer

\* @param v Vector to write

*/

public static void write(BinaryWriter writer, Vector3 v)

   throws IOException;

Added members to class aspose.threed.utilities.vector3

These are mathematical utilities for calculating the angle in radian between two vectors in 3D space.

 /**

\* Calculate the inner angle between two direction

\* Two direction can be non-normalized vectors

\* @param dir The direction vector to compare with

\* @param up The up vector of the two direction's shared plane

\* @return inner angle in radian

*/

public double angleBetween(Vector3 dir, Vector3 up);

/**

\* Calculate the inner angle between two direction

\* Two direction can be non-normalized vectors

\* @param dir The direction vector to compare with

\* @return inner angle in radian

*/

public double angleBetween(Vector3 dir);
