Edge

Infinity::Types::Core::Edge

Type alias for a 3D edge represented as a pair of Vector3 points.

Represents an edge or line segment in 3D space, defined by a start and end point. Commonly used in:

• 3D mesh topology (storing mesh edges)
• Graph-based procedural generation
• Pathfinding and navigation meshes
• Skeletal animation rigs (bones)
• Physics constraint systems
• 3D geometry algorithms

Edge edge(Math::Vector3(0, 0, 0), Math::Vector3(1, 2, 3));
Math::Vector3 start = edge.first();
Math::Vector3 end = edge.second();
Math::Vector3 direction = end - start;
float length = direction.length();

Edge2D

Infinity::Types::Core::Edge2D

Type alias for a 2D edge represented as a pair of Vector2 points.

Represents an edge or line segment in 2D space, defined by a start and end point. Commonly used in:

• 2D mesh generation and triangulation
• Polygon edge lists
• 2D pathfinding and navigation
• UI/diagram generation
• 2D geometry algorithms

Edge2D edge(Math::Vector2(0, 0), Math::Vector2(10, 5));
Math::Vector2 start = edge.first();
Math::Vector2 end = edge.second();
float length = (end - start).length();

Function Documentation

operator<<() [1/2]

std::ostream & Infinity::Types::Core::operator<< ( std::ostream &  out, const Infinity::Types::Core::Base *&  v  )

inline

Stream insertion operator for Base pointers.

No-op operator to prevent accidental output of pointer addresses when attempting to serialize Base* variables. Returns the stream unchanged.

Parameters

out	Output stream.
v	Pointer to Base object (unused).

Returns

Reference to the output stream unchanged.

Note

To serialize the pointed-to object, dereference first: out << *ptr;

operator<<() [2/2]

template<typename T >

INFINITY_API_TEMPLATE std::ostream & Infinity::Types::Core::operator<<	(	std::ostream &	out,
		const Value< T > &	v
	)

Stream insertion operator for Value<T>.

Allows Value objects to be written to output streams using the operator. Outputs the underlying value directly.

Template Parameters

T	The wrapped type.

Parameters

out	Output stream.
v	The Value to output.

Returns

Reference to the output stream.

Value<int> count(42);
std::cout << "Count: " << count << std::endl;  // Outputs: "Count: 42"

operator>>() [1/2]

std::istream & Infinity::Types::Core::operator>> ( std::istream &  in, Infinity::Types::Core::Base *&  v  )

inline

Stream extraction operator for Base pointers.

No-op operator to prevent accidental input into pointer variables. Returns the stream unchanged.

Parameters

in	Input stream.
v	Pointer to Base object (unused).

Returns

Reference to the input stream unchanged.

Note

To deserialize into a pointed-to object, dereference first: in >> *ptr;

operator>>() [2/2]

template<typename T >

INFINITY_API_TEMPLATE std::istream & Infinity::Types::Core::operator>>	(	std::istream &	in,
		Value< T > &	v
	)

Stream extraction operator for Value<T>.

Allows Value objects to be read from input streams using the >> operator. Reads into the underlying value directly.

Template Parameters

T	The wrapped type.

Parameters

in	Input stream.
v	The Value to read into.

Returns

Reference to the input stream.

Value<int> count;
std::istringstream input("42");
input >> count;  // count now contains 42
