Interface InterpolationConstant

All Known Implementing Classes:

InterpolationDefinition

public interface InterpolationConstant

Implement this interface to access unique identifiers for the definition of an interpolation function, which specifies the mechanism used to calculate the values produced by a varying value. Varying values are used to specify time-varying effect parameters over a set of control points. The additional metadata provided by the annotation can be used in combination with the identifier to create a interpolation definition.

See the description of managing definitions in the package summary for more details of how to use these constants and dynamically extend the range of supported interpolation definitions.

Field Summary

static AUID	BSpline Interpolation defined over a set of control points where the output is computed by the calculation of a B-spline function.
static AUID	Constant Interpolation producing a constant value on the output whatever the input (time) value is until the next control point is reached.
static AUID	Linear Interpolation defining a linear relationship between the input (time) and output, where the output parameter varies in a straight line between two values.
static AUID	Log Interpolation defined over a set of control points where the output is computed by the calculation of a logarithmic function.
static AUID	None
static AUID	Power Interpolation defined over a set of control points where the output is computed by the calculation of mathematical power function.
