NurbsCurve.Get2 operator

Description

Returns a complete data description of the Nurbs Curve. The data is returned in a 1-dimensional array and is ordered the same as the NurbsCurve.Get method output arguments.

Note: This method must be used with scripting languages that don't support arguments passed by reference such as JScript and PerlScript. For more information on getting output arguments, see About Output Argument Arrays.

C# Syntax

Object NurbsCurve.Get2( siNurbsFormat in_eNurbsFormat );

Scripting Syntax

oArray = NurbsCurve.Get2( [NurbsFormat] );

Return Value

Array ordered as ControlPoints, Knots, Closed, Degree, Parameterization

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
NurbsFormat siNurbsFormat Specifies how the data is formatted.

Default Value: siSINurbs

Examples

JScript Example

/*

	This example demonstrates how to retrieve the output arguments 

	returned by NurbsCurve.Get2

*/

var oRoot = Application.ActiveProject.ActiveScene.Root;

var oArc = oRoot.AddGeometry( "Arc", "NurbsCurve" );

// convert VB array to JScript array

var vbArgs = new VBArray(oArc.ActivePrimitive.Geometry.Curves(0).Get2( siSINurbs ))

var args = vbArgs.toArray();

// get the control points 

var vbArg0 = new VBArray(args[0]);

var cpoints = vbArg0.toArray();

LogMessage("control points: " + cpoints.length );

for (i = 0; i < cpoints.length; i++) 

{

	LogMessage("cpoints " + i + ": " + cpoints[i] );

}

// get the knots

var vbArg1 = new VBArray(args[1]);

var knots = vbArg1.toArray();

LogMessage("knots: " + knots.length );

for (i = 0; i < knots.length; i++) 

{

	LogMessage("knots " + i + ": " + knots[i] );

}

// get nurbs closeness state

LogMessage("closed: " + args[2] );

// get nurbs degree

LogMessage("degree: " + args[3] );

// get nurbs parameterization factor

LogMessage("parameterization: " + args[4] );
