πŸ’– rtcGetGeometryUserDataFromTraversable(3) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Embree Ray Tracing Kernels manual, section 3, and today's main character is rtcGetGeometryUserDataFromTraversable. yes the name is a whole paragraph, we don't make the rules. she's a lil niche but she's important, and by the end of this page you're gonna know exactly what she does. no cap. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

rtcGetGeometryUserDataFromTraversable β€” returns the user data pointer of the geometry through the scene object πŸ¦‹

like. she reaches in, grabs the user data pointer, and hands it back to you. that's the whole vibe.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <embree4/rtcore.h>

void* rtcGetGeometryUserDataFromTraversable(
    RTCTraversable traversable,
    unsigned int geomID);

okay so two args, traversable and geomID, and you get a void* back. she's giving very much "here's your pointer, bestie". πŸ’…


πŸ’« DESCRIPTION πŸ’«

so here's the tea β˜• β€” rtcGetGeometryUserDataFromTraversable is equivalent to rtcGetGeometryUserDataFromScene, literally the same energy, the only difference is she takes a traversable object (that's the traversable argument) instead of a scene object. that's it. that's the plot twist. 😌

and listen β€” using this method is optional on CPU, but it is required for SYCL. so if you're on SYCL, this is not a suggestion, this is the moment, this is your sign. periodt. πŸ”₯


πŸ’€ EXIT STATUS πŸ’€

on failure, an error code gets set, and you can go query it with rtcGetDeviceError. so if something's off, don't just sit there confused, go check bestie. πŸ‘‘

go read those too, they're iconic in their own right. iykyk. 🌈


and that's the whole page, bestie!! this was the Embree Ray Tracing Kernels 4 manual, section 3, page rtcGetGeo...raversable(3) β€” hand-delivered to you with love, exactly as she was written. now go get that user data pointer. mwah. πŸ’–βœ¨πŸ«Ά
