Detailed Description

This class provides an implementation for generating topology and point positions on a cylinder with a given radius and height.

The cylinder is made up of circular cross-sections in the XY plane and is centered at the origin. Each cross-section has numRadial segments. The height is aligned with the Z axis, with the base at Z = -h/2.

An optional transform may be provided to GeneratePoints to orient the cone as necessary (e.g., whose height is along the Y axis).

An additional overload of GeneratePoints is provided to specify different radii for the bottom and top discs of the cylinder and a sweep angle for cylinder about the +Z axis. When the sweep is less than 360 degrees, the generated geometry is not closed.

Note
Setting one radius to 0 in order to get a cone is inefficient and could result in artifacts. Clients should use GeomUtilConeMeshGenerator instead.

Usage:

const size_t numRadial = 8;
const size_t numPoints =
GeomUtilCylinderMeshGenerator::ComputeNumPoints(numRadial);
const float radius = 1, height = 2;
MyPointContainer<GfVec3f> points(numPoints);
GeomUtilCylinderMeshGenerator::GeneratePoints(
points.begin(), numRadial, radius, height);
