Errors when attempting to get the triangles from a PoTriangleMesh2D

[lisamcgregor]

I have a bunch of x, y and z points and have a bit of code that creates a triangular mesh.

auto meshDataNode = new PoTriangleMesh2D();
meshDataNode->setGeometry(numPoints, x, y);
meshDataNode->addValuesSet(0, z);

I am now trying to get the triangles from this mesh

auto mesh = meshDataNode->mesh.getValue();
int numVals, numTris;
const float* xVals = nullptr; // Not used
const float* yVals = nullptr; // Not used
const float* zVals = nullptr; // Not used
const int32_t* indices = nullptr;
mesh.getGeometry(numVals, xVals, yVals, zVals, numTris, indices);
std::cout << numTris << " triangles created\n";

// Set the mesh data again, this time with Z coords and triangle indices
int32_t* triIndices = new int32_t[numTris * 3];
memcpy(triIndices, indices, sizeof(int32_t) * numTris * 3);
meshDataNode = new PoTriangleMesh2D();
meshDataNode->setGeometry(numVals, xvals, yvals, zvals, numTris, triIndices);
m_scene->addChild(meshDataNode);

// Finally create a node to render the mesh.
auto meshDrawNode = new PoMeshFilled();
m_scene->addChild(meshDrawNode);

However, I get a crash when I get to the line where I'm creating the PoMeshFilled object.

What is going wrong? I am using Open Inventor 9.8 and associated MeshViz version.

Thanks

Hi Lisa,
Sorry, but I don't see anything that should cause a crash like that. Attached is a test case TestDelaunay2.zip that, I think, does what your code is doing. It works fine on my machine with OIV 9.9. You could try my test case and see if it works on your machine.

Minor: My text case also shows an alternate way to set the computed triangles - see the ifdef "OTHER". I don't think your code should cause a crash, but note that you are creating a new PoTriangleMesh2D and assigning it to the existing pointer 'meshDataNode'. That's a memory leak. :-)

Mike
