Namespace: SphericalAssembly: SphericalLib (in SphericalLib.dll) Version: 1.0.5951.32246 (1.0.0.0)
Syntax

public int Roots( Halfspace that, out Cartesian pos, out Cartesian neg ) |
Visual C++ |

public: int Roots( Halfspace that, [OutAttribute] Cartesian% pos, [OutAttribute] Cartesian% neg ) |
F# |

member Roots : that:Halfspace * pos:Cartesian byref * neg:Cartesian byref -> int |
Parameters
- that
- Type: Spherical..::..Halfspace
The halfspace to intersect.
- pos
- Type: Spherical..::..Cartesian%
The 'positive' root. (Output)
- neg
- Type: Spherical..::..Cartesian%
The 'negative' root. (Output)
Return Value
The return value is 2 if found both roots.
The return value is 0 if vectors are co-linear.
The return value is -1 if vectors are not co-linear but no roots.
The return value is -3 if circles are barely touching, so no roots.
Remarks
The root finder will only return roots if there are two.
Touching circles are not considered intersecting because of numerical precision.
