void KDL::Chain::addChain |
( |
const Chain & |

|
Adds a complete chain to the end of the chain The added chain is copied.
- Parameters
-

void KDL::Chain::addSegment |
( |
const Segment & |
segment | ) |
|
Adds a new segment to the end of the chain.
- Parameters
-
segment | The segment to add |

unsigned int KDL::Chain::getNrOfJoints |
( |
| ) |
const |
|
inline |
Request the total number of joints in the chain.
Important: It is not the same as the total number of segments since a segment does not need to have a joint. This function is important when creating a KDL::JntArray to use with this chain.
- Returns
- total nr of joints
Definition at line 71 of file chain.hpp.
unsigned int KDL::Chain::getNrOfSegments |
( |
| ) |
const |

inline |
Request the total number of segments in the chain.
- Returns
- total number of segments

const Segment & KDL::Chain::getSegment |
( |
unsigned int |
nr | ) |
const |
Request the nr'd segment of the chain. There is no boundary checking.
- Parameters
-
nr | the nr of the segment starting from 0 |
- Returns
- a constant reference to the nr'd segment

Segment & KDL::Chain::getSegment |
( |
unsigned int |
nr | ) |
|
Request the nr'd segment of the chain. There is no boundary checking.
- Parameters
-
nr | the nr of the segment starting from 0 |
- Returns
- a reference to the nr'd segment
