Detailed Description

abstract superclass for cells requiring an explicit representation

vtkExplicitCell is an abstract superclass for cells that cannot be represented implicitly. An implicit representation requires only a cell type and connectivity list (e.g., triangle). Explicit cells require information beyond this; e.g., a NURBS surface or cells that require explicit face/edge descriptions. Most cells in VTK are implicitly represented.

Explicit cells require additional representational information beyond the usual cell type and connectivity list information. Most cells in VTK are implicit cells. The vtkCell::IsImplicitCell() virtual function is overloaded to reflect this requirement.

virtual void vtkExplicitCell::SetCellId ( vtkIdType  )
virtual

Set/Get the cell id. This is necessary for explicit cells because they often need to keep extra information (typically contained in the cell data of a point set). This information might be things like knot points/weights, boundaries, etc.

virtual vtkIdType vtkExplicitCell::GetCellId ( )
virtual

Set/Get the cell id. This is necessary for explicit cells because they often need to keep extra information (typically contained in the cell data of a point set). This information might be things like knot points/weights, boundaries, etc.

virtual void vtkExplicitCell::SetDataSet ( vtkDataSet )
virtual

Set/Get the mesh that owns this cell. This is necessary for explicit cells because they often need to keep extra information (typically contained in the cell data of a point set). This information might be things like knot points/weights, boundaries, etc.

virtual vtkDataSet* vtkExplicitCell::GetDataSet ( )
virtual

Set/Get the mesh that owns this cell. This is necessary for explicit cells because they often need to keep extra information (typically contained in the cell data of a point set). This information might be things like knot points/weights, boundaries, etc.
