Detailed Description

Implementation of the IClothSystem interface.

This class has the responsibility to initialize and tear down NvCloth library. It owns all Solvers, Cloths and Fabrics, and it manages their creation and destruction. It's also the responsible for updating (on Physics Tick) all the solvers that are not flagged as "user simulated".

Member Function Documentation

AddCloth()

bool NvCloth::SystemComponent::AddCloth ( ICloth *  cloth, const AZStd::string &  solverName = DefaultSolverName  )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Adds a cloth instance to a solver. Once a cloth is part of a solver it will be simulated and its events will be signaled. A cloth can only be added to one solver at a time, if the cloth was previously added to another solver it will be removed from it first.

Parameters

cloth	The cloth instance to add to the solver.
solverName	Name of the solver to add the cloth into. By default the cloth will be added to the default solver. Empty string is an invalid solver name.

Returns

Whether it successfully added cloth to the solver or not.

Implements NvCloth::IClothSystem.

CreateCloth()

ICloth* NvCloth::SystemComponent::CreateCloth ( const AZStd::vector< SimParticleFormat > &  initialParticles, const FabricCookedData &  fabricCookedData  )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Creates a cloth instance from a fabric.

Parameters

initialParticles	Initial simulation positions and inverse masses for the cloth to start the simulation. They do not have to be the same positions and inverse masses used to cook the fabric.
fabricCookedData	The fabric data used to create the cloth.

Returns

The cloth instance or nullptr if unable to create it.

Implements NvCloth::IClothSystem.

DestroyCloth()

void NvCloth::SystemComponent::DestroyCloth ( ICloth *&  cloth )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Destroys the cloth instance passed as parameter. Any reference kept to the cloth will be invalid. The cloth be automatically removed from a solver, in case it's still added to one.

Parameters

cloth

The cloth to be destroyed. Variable will be set to nullptr.

Implements NvCloth::IClothSystem.

DestroySolver()

void NvCloth::SystemComponent::DestroySolver ( ISolver *&  solver )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Destroys the solver passed as parameter. Any reference kept to the solver will be invalid. Any cloth the solver still has will be automatically removed.

Parameters

solver

The solver to be destroyed. Variable will be set to nullptr.

Implements NvCloth::IClothSystem.

FindOrCreateSolver()

ISolver* NvCloth::SystemComponent::FindOrCreateSolver ( const AZStd::string &  name )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Looks for a solver and if it cannot find it then it creates it.

Parameters

name	Name the solver. Empty string is an invalid solver name.

Returns

The solver created/found or nullptr if unable to create it.

Implements NvCloth::IClothSystem.

GetCloth()

ICloth* NvCloth::SystemComponent::GetCloth ( ClothId  clothId )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Returns a cloth from the system, identified by its id.

Parameters

clothId

The cloth identifier.

Returns

The cloth found or nullptr if it doesn't exist.

Implements NvCloth::IClothSystem.

GetSolver()

ISolver* NvCloth::SystemComponent::GetSolver ( const AZStd::string &  name )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Returns a solver from the system, identified by its name.

Parameters

name	Name the solver. Empty string is an invalid name.

Returns

The solver found or nullptr if it doesn't exists.

Implements NvCloth::IClothSystem.

RemoveCloth()

void NvCloth::SystemComponent::RemoveCloth ( ICloth *  cloth )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Removes a cloth instance from its solver. Once a cloth is not part of a solver it will not be simulated and its events will not be signaled. If the cloth was not previously part of any solver this function doesn't have any effect.

Parameters

cloth

The cloth instance to remove from the solver.

Implements NvCloth::IClothSystem.
