Detailed Description

template<class CellTag>
struct viskores::CellTraits< CellTag >

Information about a cell based on its tag.

The templated CellTraits struct provides the basic high level information about cells (like the number of vertices in the cell or its dimensionality).

Member Typedef Documentation

IsSizeFixed

template<class CellTag >

using viskores::CellTraits< CellTag >::IsSizeFixed = viskores::CellTraitsTagSizeFixed

A tag specifying whether the number of points is fixed.

If set to viskores::CellTraitsTagSizeFixed, then NUM_POINTS is set. If set to viskores::CellTraitsTagSizeVariable, then the number of points is not known at compile time.

TopologicalDimensionsTag

template<class CellTag >

using viskores::CellTraits< CellTag >::TopologicalDimensionsTag = viskores::CellTopologicalDimensionsTag<TOPOLOGICAL_DIMENSIONS>

This tag is typedef'ed to viskores::CellTopologicalDimensionsTag<TOPOLOGICAL_DIMENSIONS>.

This provides a convenient way to overload a function based on topological dimensions (which is usually more efficient than conditionals).

Member Data Documentation

NUM_POINTS

template<class CellTag >

constexpr viskores::IdComponent viskores::CellTraits< CellTag >::NUM_POINTS = 3

staticconstexpr

Number of points in the cell.

This is only defined for cell shapes of a fixed number of points (i.e., IsSizedFixed is set to viskores::CellTraitsTagSizeFixed).

TOPOLOGICAL_DIMENSIONS

template<class CellTag >

const viskores::IdComponent viskores::CellTraits< CellTag >::TOPOLOGICAL_DIMENSIONS = 3

static

This defines the topological dimensions of the cell type.

3 for polyhedra, 2 for polygons, 1 for lines, 0 for points.
