Detailed Description

Hd_VertexAdjacency encapsulates mesh adjacency information, which is used for smooth normal computation.

The Adjacency table (built by the AdjacencyBuilder computation) provides the index of the previous and next vertex for each face that uses that vertex.

The table is split into two parts. The first part of the table provides a offset to the prev/next data for the vertex as well as the number of faces that use the vertex. The second part of the table provides the actual prev/next indices.

For example, The following prim has 4 vertices and 2 faces and uses a CCW winding order:

3.---.2
 |  /|
 | / |
 |/  |
0.---.1

Picking one vertex, 0, it is used by 2 faces, so it contains 2 previous/ next pairs: (2, 1) and (3, 2)

The full adjacency table for this prim would be:

0 1 | 2 3 | 4 5 | 6 7 || 8 9 10 11 | 12 13 | 14 15 16 17 | 18 19 8 2 | 12 1 | 14 2 | 18 1 || 2 1 3 2 | 0 2 | 1 0 0 3 | 2 0 Offset / Count pairs || Prev / Next Pairs per vertex || Per Vertex, Per Face.

Member Function Documentation

HD_API void Hd_VertexAdjacency::BuildAdjacencyTable ( HdMeshTopology const topology)

Updates the internal adjacency table using the supplied topology. Important! The adjacency table needs to be computed before smooth normals.
