Detailed Description

   @brief This class represents an fixed size array containing
   joint values of a KDL::Chain.

   \warning An object constructed with the default constructor provides
   a valid, but inert, object. Many of the member functions will do
   the correct thing and have no affect on this object, but some 
   member functions can _NOT_ deal with an inert/empty object. These 
   functions will assert() and exit the program instead. The intended use 
   case for the default constructor (in an RTT/OCL setting) is outlined in
   code below - the default constructor plus the resize() function allow
   use of JntArray objects whose size is set within a configureHook() call
   (typically based on a size determined from a property).

class MyTask : public RTT::TaskContext
{
   JntArray     j;
   MyTask() 
   {}           // invokes j's default constructor
 
   bool configureHook()
   {
       unsigned int size = some_property.rvalue();
       j.resize(size)
       ...
   }
 
   void updateHook()
   {
      use j here
   }
};

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ JntArray() [1/3]

KDL::JntArray::JntArray ( )

Construct with no data array

Postcondition: NULL == data; 0 == rows()

Warning: use of an object constructed like this, without a resize() first, may result in program exit! See class documentation.

Definition at line 26 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ JntArray() [2/3]

KDL::JntArray::JntArray ( unsigned int size )

explicit

Constructor of the joint array

Parameters

size	size of the array, this cannot be changed afterwards.

Precondition: 0 < size

Postcondition: NULL != data; 0 < rows(); all elements in data have 0 value

Definition at line 30 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ JntArray() [3/3]

KDL::JntArray::JntArray ( const JntArray & arg )

Copy constructor

Note: Will correctly copy an empty object

Definition at line 37 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ ~JntArray()

KDL::JntArray::~JntArray ( )

Definition at line 49 of file jntarray.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ columns()

unsigned int KDL::JntArray::columns ( ) const

Returns the number of columns of the array, always 1.

Definition at line 75 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ operator()() [1/2]

double & KDL::JntArray::operator()	(	unsigned int	i,
		unsigned int	j = `0`
	)

set_item operator, again if a second value is given it should be zero.

Returns: reference to the joint value at position i,starting from zero.

Precondition: 0 != size (ie non-default constructor or resize() called)

Definition at line 64 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ operator()() [2/2]

double KDL::JntArray::operator()	(	unsigned int	i,
		unsigned int	j = `0`
	)		const

get_item operator for the joint array, if a second value is given it should be zero, since a JntArray resembles a column.

Returns: the joint value at position i, starting from 0

Precondition: 0 != size (ie non-default constructor or resize() called)

Definition at line 58 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ operator=()

JntArray & KDL::JntArray::operator= ( const JntArray & arg )

Definition at line 42 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ resize()

void KDL::JntArray::resize ( unsigned int newSize )

Resize the array

Warning: This causes a dynamic allocation (and potentially
also a dynamic deallocation). This will negatively affect real-time performance!

Postcondition: newSize == rows(); NULL != data; all elements in data have 0 value

Definition at line 53 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ rows()

unsigned int KDL::JntArray::rows ( ) const

Returns the number of rows (size) of the array

Definition at line 70 of file jntarray.cpp.

Friends And Related Function Documentation

◆ Add

void Add	(	const JntArray &	src1,
		const JntArray &	src2,
		JntArray &	dest
	)

friend

Function to add two joint arrays, all the arguments must have the same size: A + B = C. This function is aliasing-safe, A or B can be the same array as C.

Parameters

src1	A
src2	B
dest	C

Definition at line 80 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ Divide

void Divide	(	const JntArray &	src,
		const double &	factor,
		JntArray &	dest
	)

friend

Function to divide all the array values with a scalar factor: A/b=C. This function is aliasing-safe, A can be the same array as C.

Parameters

src	A
factor	b
dest	C

Definition at line 95 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ Equal

bool Equal	(	const JntArray &	src1,
		const JntArray &	src2,
		double	eps
	)

friend

Function to check if two arrays are the same with a precision of eps

Parameters

src1
src2
eps	default: epsilon

Returns: true if each element of src1 is within eps of the same element in src2, or if both src1 and src2 have no data (ie 0==rows())

Definition at line 111 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ Multiply

void Multiply	(	const JntArray &	src,
		const double &	factor,
		JntArray &	dest
	)

friend

Function to multiply all the array values with a scalar factor: A*b=C. This function is aliasing-safe, A can be the same array as C.

Parameters

src	A
factor	b
dest	C

Definition at line 90 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ MultiplyJacobian

void MultiplyJacobian	(	const Jacobian &	jac,
		const JntArray &	src,
		Twist &	dest
	)

friend

Function to multiply a KDL::Jacobian with a KDL::JntArray to get a KDL::Twist, it should not be used to calculate the forward velocity kinematics, the solver classes are built for this purpose. J*q = t

Parameters

jac	J
src	q
dest	t

Postcondition: dest==Twist::Zero() if 0==src.rows() (ie src is empty)

Definition at line 100 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ operator==

bool operator==	(	const JntArray &	src1,
		const JntArray &	src2
	)

friend

Definition at line 118 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ SetToZero

void SetToZero ( JntArray & array )

friend

Function to set all the values of the array to 0

Parameters

array

Definition at line 106 of file jntarray.cpp.

◆ Subtract

void Subtract	(	const JntArray &	src1,
		const JntArray &	src2,
		JntArray &	dest
	)

friend

Function to subtract two joint arrays, all the arguments must have the same size: A - B = C. This function is aliasing-safe, A or B can be the same array as C.

Parameters

src1	A
src2	B
dest	C
