Interface to get spline coefficients #89

Closed XWarin closed 7 years ago

XWarin commented 7 years ago

Dear Splinter developper

I need to get the polynomial coefficients and the mesh grid caracteristics associated to these coefficients. Is there a C++ function to get theses informations. Thank you for this very good library ! Sincerely yours

Xavier Warin

Hello Xavier,

Currently, you have access to the control points (coefficients), knot vectors and basis degrees via BSpline::getControlPoints, BSpline::getKnotVectors and BSpline::getBasisDegrees, respectively. The grid and the control points of the basis functions that have support on a given grid cell can be derived from these values.

Unfortunately, there are no helper functions for this, but you may cleverly use BSpline::evalBasis to see which basis functions that have support at the midpoint of a grid cell. You may then extract the corresponding control points, which have the same indices as the non-zero basis functions.

Hope this may help you.

Kind regards, Bjarne

Hi Bjarne

Thank you. I will try this soon. Best regards.
