DESCRIPTION
The QPointArray class provides an array of points.
The QPointArray is an array of QPoint objects. In addition
to the functions provided by QArray, QPointArray provides
Trolltech AS 13 June 2001 1
QPointArray(3qt)QPointArray(3qt)
some point-specific functions.
For convenient reading and writing of the point data:
setPoints(), putPoints(), point(), and setPoint().
For geometry operations: boundingRect() and translate().
There is also a QWMatrix::map() function for more general
transformation of QPointArrays.
QPointArray is used by QPainter::drawLineSegments(),
QPainter::drawPolyline(), QPainter::drawPolygon() and
QPainter::drawQuadBezier(), among other things.
Note that since this class is a QArray, it is explicitly
shared and works with shallow copies by default.
See also QPainter, QWMatrix and QArray.
Examples: desktop/desktop.cpp picture/picture.cpp
MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATIONQPointArray::QPointArray ()
Constructs a null point array.
See also isNull().
QPointArray::QPointArray ( const QRect & r, bool closed=FALSE )
Constructs a point array from the rectangle r.
If closed is FALSE, then the point array just contains the
following four points in the listed order: r.topLeft(),
r.topRight(), r.bottomRight() and r.bottomLeft().
If closed is TRUE, then a fifth point is set to
r.topLeft().
QPointArray::QPointArray ( const QPointArray & a )
Constructs a shallow copy of the point array a.
See also copy().
QPointArray::QPointArray ( int nPoints, const QCOORD * points )
Constructs a point array with nPoints points, taken from
the points array.
Equivalent to setPoints(nPoints,points).
QPointArray::QPointArray ( int size )
Constructs a point array with room for size points. Makes
a null array if size == 0.
See also resize() and isNull().
Trolltech AS 13 June 2001 2
QPointArray(3qt)QPointArray(3qt)QPointArray::~QPointArray ()
Destructs the point array.
QRect QPointArray::boundingRect () const
Returns the bounding rectangle of the points in the array,
or QRect(0,0,0,0) if the array is empty.
QPointArray QPointArray::copy () const
Creates a deep copy of the array.
void QPointArray::makeArc ( int x, int y, int w, int h, int a1,
int a2 )
Sets the points of the array to those describing an arc of
an ellipse with size w by h and position (x, y ), starting
from angle a1, spanning a2. The resulting array has
sufficient resolution for pixel accuracy (see the
overloaded function which takes an additional QWMatrix
parameter).
Angles are specified in 16ths of a degree, i.e. a full
circle equals 5760 (16*360). Positive values mean counter-
clockwise while negative values mean clockwise direction.
Zero degrees is at the 3 o'clock position.
void QPointArray::makeArc ( int x, int y, int w, int h, int a1,
int a2, const QWMatrix & xf )
Sets the points of the array to those describing an arc of
an ellipse with size w by h and position (x, y ), starting
from angle a1, spanning a2, transformed by the matrix xf.
The resulting array has sufficient resolution for pixel
accuracy.
Angles are specified in 16ths of a degree, i.e. a full
circle equals 5760 (16*360). Positive values mean counter-
clockwise while negative values mean clockwise direction.
Zero degrees is at the 3 o'clock position.
void QPointArray::makeEllipse ( int xx, int yy, int w, int h )
Sets the points of the array to those describing an
ellipse with size w by h and position (x, y ).
The returned array has sufficient resolution for use as
pixels.
QPointArray & QPointArray::operator= ( const QPointArray & a )
Assigns a shallow copy of a to this point array and
returns a reference to this point array.
Equivalent to assign( a ).
See also copy().
QPoint QPointArray::point ( uint index ) const
Returns the point at position index in the array.
Trolltech AS 13 June 2001 3
QPointArray(3qt)QPointArray(3qt)void QPointArray::point ( uint index, int * x, int * y ) const
Returns the point at position index in the array in *x and
*y.
bool QPointArray::putPoints ( int index, int nPoints, const
QCOORD * points )
Copies nPoints points from the points array into this
point array. Will resize this point array if index+nPoints
exceeds the size of the array.
Returns TRUE if successful, or FALSE if the array could
not be resized (typcailly due to lack of memory).
The example code creates an array with three points:
(1,2), (3,4) and (5,6):
QPointArray a( 1 );
a[0] = QPoint( 1, 2 );
static QCOORD points[] = { 3,4, 5,6 };
a.putPoints( 1, 2, points );
This function differs from setPoints() in that it does not
resize the array unless the array size is exceeded.
See also resize() and setPoints().
bool QPointArray::putPoints ( int index, int nPoints, int firstx,
int firsty, ... )
Copies nPoints points from the variable argument list into
this point array. Will resize this point array if
index+nPoints exceeds the size of the array.
Returns TRUE if successful, or FALSE if the array could
not be resized (typically due to lack of memory).
The example code creates an array with two points (1,2),
(3,4) and (5,6):
QPointArray a( 1 );
a[0] = QPoint( 1, 2 );
a.putPoints( 1, 2, 3,4, 5,6 );
This function differs from setPoints() in that it does not
resize the array unless the array size is exceeded.
See also resize() and setPoints().
QPointArray QPointArray::quadBezier () const
Returns the Bezier points for the four control points in
this array.
void QPointArray::setPoint ( uint i, const QPoint & p )
Equivalent to setPoint( i, p.x(), p.y() ).
Trolltech AS 13 June 2001 4
QPointArray(3qt)QPointArray(3qt)void QPointArray::setPoint ( uint index, int x, int y )
Sets the point at position index in the array to (x,y).
bool QPointArray::setPoints ( int nPoints, const QCOORD * points
)
Resizes the array to nPoints and sets the points in the
array to the values taken from points.
Returns TRUE if successful, or FALSE if the array could
not be resized (normally due to lack of memory).
The example code creates an array with two points (1,2)
and (3,4):
static QCOORD points[] = { 1,2, 3,4 };
QPointArray a;
a.setPoints( 2, points );
See also resize() and putPoints().
bool QPointArray::setPoints ( int nPoints, int firstx, int
firsty, ... )
Resizes the array to nPoints and sets the points in the
array to the values taken from the variable argument list.
Returns TRUE if successful, or FALSE if the array could
not be resized (typically due to lack of memory).
The example code creates an array with two points (1,2)
and (3,4):
QPointArray a;
a.setPoints( 2, 1,2, 3,4 );
See also resize() and putPoints().
void QPointArray::translate ( int dx, int dy )
Translates all points in the array (dx,dy).
void QPointArray::cleanBuffers () [static]
For internal use only.
void* QPointArray::shortPoints ( int index = 0, int nPoints = -1
) const
For internal use only.
