Detailed Description

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

Class RWConvertGenMat<From,To> 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;

Examples

 #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

template<class From, class To>

RWConvertGenMat< From, To >::RWConvertGenMat

(

const RWGenMat< From > &

v

)

[inline]

Constructs a new matrix of type RWGenMat<To> that can be used anywhere as a type RWGenMat<To> . 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.

template<class From, class To>

RWConvertGenMat< From, To >::operator RWGenMat< To >

(

)

const [inline]

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