 |

|
|
CurvatureAt | Computes the curvature at the given UV coordinate. |
|
Degree | Returns the maximum algebraic degree of any span (or a good estimate if curve spans are not algebraic). |
|
Dispose() | Actively reclaims unmanaged resources that this instance uses. (Inherited from CommonObject.) |
|
Dispose(Boolean) |
For derived class implementers.
This method is called with argument true when class user calls Dispose(), while with argument false when the Garbage Collector invokes the finalizer, or Finalize() method.
You must reclaim all used unmanaged resources in both cases, and can use this chance to call Dispose on disposable fields if the argument is true. Also, you must call the base virtual method within your overriding method. (Inherited from CommonObject.) |
|
Domain | Gets the domain in a direction. |
|
Duplicate | Constructs a deep (full) copy of this object. (Inherited from GeometryBase.) |
|
DuplicateShallow | Constructs a light copy of this object. By "light", it is meant that the same underlying data is used until something is done to attempt to change it. For example, you could have a shallow copy of a very heavy mesh object and the same underlying data will be used when doing things like inspecting the number of faces on the mesh. If you modify the location of one of the mesh vertices, the shallow copy will create a full duplicate of the underlying mesh data and the shallow copy will become a deep copy. (Inherited from GeometryBase.) |
|

|

|

|
Finalize() | Passively reclaims unmanaged resources when the class user did not explicitly call Dispose(). (Inherited from CommonObject.) |
