But it could be per-mass. The problem with that approach would be too much wasted memory. // NOTE: - a static member variable has the same value in any instance of the class and doesn't even require an instance of the class to exist. // - a static class member cannot be initialized inside of the class declaration. In fact, if you decide to put your code in a header file, you cannot even initialize the static variable // inside of the header file; do it in a .cpp file instead. Moreover, you are required to initialize the static class member or it will not be in scope. // The syntax is a bit weird: "type class_name::static_variable = value", or in this case vector2Df pointMass::maxWall(4095, 4095) // methods: static void setWallLimits(float mminx, float mminy, float mmaxx, float mmaxy); // ==================================== METHODS ==================================== pointMass(); virtual ~pointMass(){}; // Adding forces to total force: void resetForce(); void addForce(float x, float y); void addForce(vector2Df force); void addDampingForce(); void addInvSquareForce(float x, float y, float radiusMax, float radiusMin, float scale); void addInterInvSquareForce(pointMass &p, float radiusMin, float radiusMax, float scale); // (a blob object could be defined by a "cord" of chained particles, plus a center) void addSpringForce(float x, float y, float radius, float scale); void addInterSpringForce(pointMass &p, float radius, float scale); //void addClockwiseForce(particle &p, float radius, float scale); //void addCounterClockwiseForce(particle &p, float radius, float scale); //void addDampingForce(); // this work in the case of the euler integration; in case of Verlet, we need to do pseudo-damping while calculating // the acceleration... // Set parameters: void setInitialCondition(float px, float py, float vx, float vy); void setInitialCondition(vector2Df _pos, vector2Df _speed); void setIntegrationStep(float _dt); void setPos(float px, float py); // assuming the speed is unchanged (must do some tweaking in case of Verlet integration) // dynamic update: void update(); // kinematic constraints (could be based on a force too...) //void setWallLimits(float mminx, float mminy, float mmaxx, float mmaxy); // DECLARED STATIC void bounceOffWalls(); vector2Df getSpeed(); // get an estimation of the speed (also update speed variable - this variable is not needed in case of VERLET) void setSpeed(const vector2Df& vel); void setSpeed(float vx, float vy); // ==================================== VARIABLES ==================================== int identifier; // this may be needed in particular in case we don't use vector<> (case of poor C Arduino compiler) // kinematic variables: vector2Df pos, posOld; // I will use verlet integration (perhaps we could have a switch to choose the integration method?) //vector2D speed; // speed at time t (this is not explicitly calculated in case of verlet method, HENCE PRIVATE) vector2Df acc; // Acceleration at time t (equal to the total force divided by the mass).
