Detailed Description

A class to draw a Catmull-Rom curve.

This class allow to draw a Catmull-Rom curve, a smooth curve which passes through all its control points. Catmull-Rom splines are a family of cubic interpolating splines formulated such that the tangent at each control point is calculated using the previous and next control point point of the spline. Catmull-Rom splines have C^1 continuity, local control, and interpolation, but do not lie within the convex hull of their control points.

GlCatmullRomCurve constructor

Parameters:
controlPoints a vector of control points (size must be greater or equal to 4)
startColor the color at the start of the curve
endColor the color at the end of the curve
startSize the width at the start of the curve
endSize the width at the end of the curve
closedCurve if true, the curve will be closed and a bezier segment will be drawn between the last and first control point
paramType curve parameterization type (GlCatmullRomCurve::UNIFORM | GlCatmullRomCurve::CENTRIPETAL | GlCatmullRomCurve::CHORD_LENGTH (default))
nbCurvePoints the number of curve points to generate
