## Public Member Functions
Construction and initialization
Constructors require a Parameterization of a face, a set of one or more tessellation rates, and a standard set of options. As with other classes, constructors can produce invalid instances if given obviously invalid arguments, e.g. an invalid Parameterization, non-positive tessellation rate, etc.
| Tessellation (Parameterization const &p, int uniformRate, Options const &options=Options())
| Simple constructor providing a single uniform tessellation rate.
| Tessellation (Parameterization const &p, int numRates, int const rates[], Options const &options=Options())
| General constructor providing multiple tessellation rates for a non-uniform tessellation.
bool | IsValid () const
| Return true if correctly initialized.
| Tessellation ()=delete
| Default construction is unavailable.
| Tessellation (Tessellation const &)=delete
Tessellation & | operator= (Tessellation const &)=delete
| ~Tessellation ()
Simple queries
Simple queries of a valid Tessellation.
Parameterization | GetParameterization () const
| Return the Parameterization.
int | GetFaceSize () const
| Return the size of the face.
int | GetRates (int rates[]) const
| Retrieve the rates assigned.
bool | IsUniform () const
| Return if the pattern is uniform.
Methods to inspect and gather coordinates
Methods to determine the number of sample points involved in the tessellation pattern and their content are available for the entire pattern, or for parts of the boundary or interior of the pattern. The methods that assign the coordinate arrays also return the number of coordinates assigned, so the methods that just return those sizes are not necessary if arrays for the resulting coords have already been sufficiently allocated.
int | GetNumCoords () const
| Return the number of coordinates in the entire pattern.
int | GetCoordStride () const
| Return the number of elements between each coordinate.
int | GetNumBoundaryCoords () const
| Return the number of boundary coordinates.
int | GetNumInteriorCoords () const
| Return the number of interior coordinates.
int | GetNumEdgeCoords (int edge) const
| Return the number of coordinates within a given edge (excluding those at its end vertices)
template<typename REAL >
int | GetCoords (REAL coordTuples[]) const
| Retrieve the coordinates for the entire pattern.
template<typename REAL >
int | GetBoundaryCoords (REAL coordTuples[]) const
| Retrieve the coordinates for the boundary.
template<typename REAL >
int | GetInteriorCoords (REAL coordTuples[]) const
| Retrieve the coordinates for the boundary.
template<typename REAL >
int | GetVertexCoord (int vertex, REAL coordTuples[]) const
| Retrieve the coordinate for a given vertex of the face.
template<typename REAL >
int | GetEdgeCoords (int edge, REAL coordTuples[]) const
| Retrieve the coordinates for a given edge of the face (excluding those at its end vertices)
Methods to inspect and gather facets
Methods to inspect the number and values of facets. Facets are simply integer tuples of size 3 or 4 which contain the indices of the coordinates generated by the Tessellation. Unlike the coordinates – which can be separated into those on the boundary or interior of the pattern – the facets are not distinguished in any way.
int | GetNumFacets () const
| Return the number of facets in the entire pattern.
int | GetFacetSize () const
| Return the number of indices assigned to each facet.
int | GetFacetStride () const
| Return the number of elements between each facet.
int | GetFacets (int facetTuples[]) const
| Retrieve the facet indices for the entire pattern.

## Methods to modify the coordinate indices of facets
Methods to modify the coordinate indices of facets rely on the coordinate indices being identifiable as those of boundary or interior coordinates. The first N coordinates generated by Tessellation will be on the boundary, while the remaining M will be for the interior. The boundary and interior coordinate indices can be transformed collectively or separately by offsets or by explicit reassignment. Both the boundary and interior indices must be modified at the same time while the Tessellation can distinguish them, i.e. a boundary coord is identified by index < N and an interior coord by index >= N.
void | TransformFacetCoordIndices (int facetTuples[], int commonOffset)
| Apply a common offset to all facet coordinate indices.
void | TransformFacetCoordIndices (int facetTuples[], int const boundaryIndices[], int interiorOffset)
| Reassign indices of boundary coordinates while offseting those of interior coordinates.
void | TransformFacetCoordIndices (int facetTuples[], int const boundaryIndices[], int const interiorIndices[])
| Reassign all facet coordinate indices.

## Detailed Description

Encapsulates a specific tessellation pattern of a Parameterization.

Tessellation is a simple class that encapsulates a specified tessellation pattern for a given Parameterization. Tessellation parameters are given on construction and are fixed for its lifetime.

Methods allow inspection of the pattern in terms of the 2D coordinates of the points comprising the pattern and the faces that connect them. The 2D coordinates are referred to both in the documentation and the interface as "coords" while the faces connecting them are referred to as "facets" (to distinguish from the faces of the mesh, to which a Tessellation is applied).

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ Tessellation() [1/4]

Tessellation | ( | Parameterization const & | p,
|  | int | uniformRate,
|  | Options const & | options = `Options()`
| ) |  |

Simple constructor providing a single uniform tessellation rate.

Parameters

  p | Parameterization of a face to be tessellated
  uniformRate | Integer tessellation rate (non-zero)
  options | Options describing tessellation results

## ◆ Tessellation() [2/4]

Tessellation | ( | Parameterization const & | p,
|  | int | numRates,
|  | int const | rates[],
|  | Options const & | options = `Options()`
| ) |  |

General constructor providing multiple tessellation rates for a non-uniform tessellation.

Parameters

  p | Parameterization of a face to be tessellated
  numRates | The number of tessellation rates provided, which usually includes one per edge of the face (more details below)
  rates | The array of non-zero integer tessellation rates
  options | Options describing tessellation results

For a Parameterization of a face with N edges, the acceptable number of tessellation rates can vary. Aside from N "outer" tessellation rates (one for each edge), all faces can have at least one "inner" rate additionally specified while quads can have two inner rates.

If inner rates are not specified in addition to the N outer rates, they will be inferred (so it is not necessary to initialize quads distinctly from other faces). Similarly – though less useful – the smaller set of inner rates can be specified, leaving all outer rates to be inferred.

For a face with N edges, the full set of acceptable rates and their interpretations is as follows:

     1  - single explicit inner rate (uniform)
     2  - (quads only) two explicit inner rates, outer rates inferred
     N  - explicit edge rates, inner rates inferred
    N+1 - explicit edge rates, explicit inner rate
    N+2 - (quads only) explicit edge rates, two explicit inner rates

When associating rates with edges, note that rates[0] corresponds to the edge between vertices 0 and 1. This is consistent with use elsewhere in OpenSubdiv – where edge i lies between vertices i and i+1 – but differs from the conventions used with many hardware tessellation interfaces.
