Polygons and Polyhedra creation

Functions
void	MEDMEM::MESHING::setPolygonsConnectivity (const int *ConnectivityIndex, const int *ConnectivityValue, int nbOfPolygons, const MED_EN::medEntityMesh Entity) throw (MEDEXCEPTION)
void	MEDMEM::MESHING::setPolyhedraConnectivity (const int *PolyhedronIndex, const int *FacesIndex, const int *Nodes, int nbOfPolyhedra, const MED_EN::medEntityMesh Entity=MED_EN::MED_CELL) throw (MEDEXCEPTION)

Detailed Description

These methods belong to the meshing class and are necessary for creating the connectivities of MED_POLYHEDRON and MED_POLYGON elements.

Function Documentation

void MEDMEM::MESHING::setPolygonsConnectivity	(	const int *	ConnectivityIndex,
		const int *	Connectivity,
		int	nbOfPolygons,
		const MED_EN::medEntityMesh	Entity
	)			throw (MEDEXCEPTION) [inherited]

Method setting the connectivity for MED_POLYGON elements

Parameters:

	ConnectivityIndex	polygon connectivity index
	Connectivity	polygon connectivity
	nbOfPolygons	number of polygons defined
	Entity	entity of the polygon

The Entity parameter specifies whether the polygon is the highest order element (MED_CELL) or it is a 2D element in a 3D mesh (MED_FACE).

This method is fully compatible with the MESHING::setConnectivity method. The following code excerpt creates two polygons with 5 and 4 nodes respectively.

MESHING myMeshing ;
myMeshing.setCoordinates(SpaceDimension,NumberOfNodes,Coordinates,System,Mode);

int conn_index[3]={1,6,10};
int conn[9]={1,2,3,4,5,5,4,6,7};
int nb_poly=2;
meshing.setPolygonsConnectivity(conn_index, conn, nb_poly, MED_CELL)

		const int *	Nodes,
		int	nbOfPolyhedra,
		const MED_EN::medEntityMesh	Entity = MED_EN::MED_CELL
	)			throw (MEDEXCEPTION) [inherited]

Method setting the connectivity for MED_POLYHEDRON elements

Parameters:

	PolyhedronIndex	polyhedra connectivity index
	FacesIndex	polyhedra face connectivity index
	Nodes	polyhedra connectivity
	nbOfPolyhedra	number of polyhedra defined
	Entity	deprecated parameter
