Detailed Description

template<typename Type>
class ezVec3Template< Type >

A 3-component vector class.

Member Function Documentation

◆ IsNormalized()

template<typename Type >

EZ_IMPLEMENT_IF_FLOAT_TYPE EZ_FORCE_INLINE bool ezVec3Template< Type >::IsNormalized ( Type fEpsilon = ezMath::HugeEpsilon<Type>() ) const

Returns, whether the squared length of this vector is between 0.999f and 1.001f.

Note: Normalization, especially with SSE is not very precise. So this function checks whether the (squared) length is between a lower and upper limit.

◆ MakeOrthogonalTo()

template<typename Type >

EZ_IMPLEMENT_IF_FLOAT_TYPE void ezVec3Template< Type >::MakeOrthogonalTo ( const ezVec3Template< Type > & vNormal )

Modifies this direction vector to be orthogonal to the given (normalized) direction vector. The result is NOT normalized.

Note: This function may fail, e.g. create a vector that is zero, if the given normal is parallel to the vector itself. If you need to handle such cases, you should manually check afterwards, whether the result is zero, or cannot be normalized.

◆ MakeRandomDeviation()

template<typename Type >

EZ_IMPLEMENT_IF_FLOAT_TYPE ezVec3Template< Type > ezVec3Template< Type >::MakeRandomDeviation	(	ezRandom &	inout_rng,
		const ezAngle &	maxDeviation,
		const ezVec3Template< Type > &	vNormal
	)

static

Creates a random vector around the given normal with a maximum deviation.

Note: If you are going to do this many times with the same axis, rather than calling this function, instead manually do what this function does (see inline code) and only compute the quaternion once.

◆ operator*=()

template<typename Type >

EZ_FORCE_INLINE void ezVec3Template< Type >::operator*= ( const ezVec3Template< Type > & rhs )

Multiplies rhs component-wise to this vector.

Test:: this is new

◆ operator/=()

template<typename Type >

EZ_FORCE_INLINE void ezVec3Template< Type >::operator/= ( const ezVec3Template< Type > & rhs )

Divides this vector component-wise by rhs.

Test:: this is new
