To picture this, imagine * the evaluation of a point on the curve as follows: first, all control points are joined with * straight lines, and a point corresponding to the selected time value is marked on them. * Then, the marked points are joined with straight lines and the point corresponding to * the time value is marked. This is repeated until only one marked point remains, which is the * point at the selected time value. * * @image html bezier-curve-evaluation.png "Evaluation of the Bezier curve" * * An important property of the Bezier curves is that their parameters (control points) * have an intutive geometric interpretation. Because of this, they are frequently used * in vector graphics editors. * * Every Bezier curve is contained in its control polygon (the convex polygon composed * of its control points). This fact is useful for sweepline algorithms and intersection. * * @par Implementation notes * The order of a Bezier curve is immuable once it has been created. Normally, you should * know the order at compile time and use the BezierCurveN template. If you need to determine * the order at runtime, use the BezierCurve::create() function. It will create a BezierCurveN * for orders 1, 2 and 3 (up to cubic Beziers), so you can later dynamic_cast * to those types, and for higher orders it will create an instance of BezierCurve. * * @relates BezierCurveN * @ingroup Curves */ /** * @class BezierCurveN * @brief Bezier curve with compile-time specified order. * * @tparam degree unsigned value indicating the order of the bezier curve * * @relates BezierCurve * @ingroup Curves */ BezierCurve::BezierCurve(std::vector const &pts) { inner = D2(Bezier::Order(pts.size() - 1), Bezier::Order(pts.size() - 1)); for (unsigned d = 0; d < 2; ++d) { for (unsigned i = 0; i < pts.size(); i++) { inner[d][i] = pts[i][d]; } } } Coord BezierCurve::length(Coord tolerance) const { switch (order()) { case 0: return 0.0; case 1: return distance(initialPoint(), finalPoint()); case 2: { std::vector pts = points(); return bezier_length(pts[0], pts[1], pts[2], tolerance); } case 3: { std::vector pts = points(); return bezier_length(pts[0], pts[1], pts[2], pts[3], tolerance); } default: return bezier_length(points(), tolerance); } } BezierCurve *BezierCurve::create(std::vector const &pts) { switch (pts.size()) { case 0: case 1: THROW_LOGICALERROR("BezierCurve::create: too few points in vector"); return NULL; case 2: return new LineSegment(pts[0], pts[1]); case 3: return new QuadraticBezier(pts[0], pts[1], pts[2]); case 4: return new CubicBezier(pts[0], pts[1], pts[2], pts[3]); default: return new BezierCurve(pts); } } // optimized specializations for LineSegment template <> Curve *BezierCurveN<1>::derivative() const { double dx = inner[X][1] - inner[X][0], dy = inner[Y][1] - inner[Y][0]; return new BezierCurveN<1>(Point(dx,dy),Point(dx,dy)); } template<> Coord BezierCurveN<1>::nearestPoint(Point const& p, Coord from, Coord to) const { if ( from > to ) std::swap(from, to); Point ip = pointAt(from); Point fp = pointAt(to); Point v = fp - ip; Coord l2v = L2sq(v); if (l2v == 0) return 0; Coord t = dot( p - ip, v ) / l2v; if ( t <= 0 ) return from; else if ( t >= 1 ) return to; else return from + t*(to-from); } static Coord bezier_length_internal(std::vector &v1, Coord tolerance) { /* The Bezier length algorithm used in 2Geom utilizes a simple fact: * the Bezier curve is longer than the distance between its endpoints * but shorter than the length of the polyline formed by its control * points.
