Detailed Description

B-Spline curve support.

This module provides utility functions to generate b-spline curves in your program. It is used by passing in a set of control points to bspline_coeff(), and then querying for individual points using bspline_get_point().

Note that this module is NOT thread-safe.

Function Documentation

void bspline_coeff ( const point_t pnt)

Calculate and set b-spline coefficients.

This function performs the initial setup work of calculating the coefficients needed to generate a b-spline curve for the specified set of points. The calculation is based on a total of 4 points: one previous point, the current point, and two points that occur after the current point.

The current point should be at pnt[0], the previous at pnt[-1], and the future points should be at pnt[1], and pnt[2]. I repeat: pnt[-1] must be a valid point for this to work properly.

Parameters
pntThe array of points used to calculate the b-spline coefficients.
void bspline_get_point ( float  t,
point_t p 
)

Generate the next point for the current set of coefficients.

Given a 't' (between 0.0f and 1.0f) this will generate the next point value for the current set of coefficients.

Parameters
tThe "t" value for the b-spline generation function.
pStorage for the generated point.
