Detailed Description

template<class From, class To>
struct RWConvertGenMat< From, To >

Class RWConvertGenMat converts between RWGenMat types with different datatypes. It assumes that there is a conversion operator from From to To.

Synopsis

template <class From, class To>
class RWConvertGenMat;

Example

#include <rw/math/genmat.h>
 
int main() {
  // create a 2x2 matrix
  RWGenMat<int> d("2x2[1 2 3 4]");
 
  // convert int matrix d to DComplex
  // matrix c with imag part 0
  RWGenMat<DComplex> c = RWConvertGenMat<int, DComplex>(d);
 
  // convert int matrix d to a double
  // matrix and then call sin
  RWGenMat<double> s = RWConvertGenMat<int, double>(d);
  s = sin(s);
}

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

RWConvertGenMat()

template<class From , class To >

RWConvertGenMat< From, To >::RWConvertGenMat ( const RWGenMat< From > & v )

inlineexplicit

Constructs a new matrix of type RWGenMat that can be used anywhere as a type RWGenMat. Note that a temporary matrix is created every time this constructor is invoked, but the conversion operator below can be used repeatedly without creating additional temporary matrices.

Member Function Documentation

operator RWGenMat< To >()

template<class From , class To >

RWConvertGenMat< From, To >::operator RWGenMat< To > ( ) const

inline

Automatic conversion operator that enables class RWConvertGenMat to be used as an RWGenMat. While the actual conversion takes place in the constructor, this operator provides a reference to that converted matrix.
