Syntax

public abstract class Constraint : IConstraint

Public MustInherit Class Constraint
	Implements IConstraint

public ref class Constraint abstract : IConstraint

[<AbstractClassAttribute>]
type Constraint =  
    class
        interface IConstraint
    end

The Constraint type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	Constraint	Initializes a new instance of the Constraint class

Methods

	Name	Description
	ApplyImpulse	Called by the simulation to apply an impulse that satisfies the constraint.
	Equals	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	OnAddToSimulation	Called when this constraint is added to a simulation.
	OnApplyImpulse	Called when the constraint impulse should be applied.
	OnChanged	Called when properties of this constraint were changed.
	OnRemoveFromSimulation	Called when this constraint is removed from a simulation.
	OnSetup	Called when constraint should be set-up for a new time step.
	Setup	Called by the simulation to prepare this constraint for constraint solving for a new time step.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Properties

	Name	Description
	AngularConstraintImpulse	Gets or sets the angular constraint impulse that was applied.
	BodyA	Gets or sets the first body.
	BodyB	Gets or sets the second body.
	CollisionEnabled	Gets or sets a value indicating whether collisions between BodyA and BodyB are disabled.
	Enabled	Gets or sets a value indicating whether this constraint is enabled.
	LinearConstraintImpulse	Gets or sets the linear constraint impulse that was applied.
	Simulation	Gets the simulation to which this constraint belongs.

Remarks

A constraint limits the movement of two bodies relative two each other. It restricts the degrees of movement of one body relative to the other body.
