  /*! \brief An interface class for Frame constraints.
  \class Constraint constraint.h QGLViewer/constraint.h

  This class defines the interface for the Constraints that can be applied to a Frame to limit its
  motion. Use Frame::setConstraint() to associate a Constraint to a Frame (default is a \c NULL
  Frame::constraint()).

  <h3>How does it work ?</h3>

  The Constraint acts as a filter on the translation and rotation Frame increments.
  constrainTranslation() and constrainRotation() should be overloaded to specify the constraint
  behavior: the desired displacement is given as a parameter that can optionally be modified.

  Here is how the Frame::translate() and Frame::rotate() methods use the Constraint:
  \code
  Frame::translate(Vec& T)
  {
    if (constraint())
      constraint()->constrainTranslation(T, this);
    t += T;
  }

  Frame::rotate(Quaternion& Q)
  {
    if (constraint())
      constraint()->constrainRotation(Q, this);
    q *= Q;
  }
  \endcode

  The default behavior of constrainTranslation() and constrainRotation() is empty (meaning no
  filtering).

  The Frame which uses the Constraint is passed as a parameter to the constrainTranslation() and
  constrainRotation() methods, so that they can have access to its current state (mainly
  Frame::position() and Frame::orientation()). It is not \c const for versatility reasons, but
  directly modifying it should be avoided.

  \attention Frame::setTranslation(), Frame::setRotation() and similar methods will actually indeed
  set the frame position and orientation, without taking the constraint into account. Use the \e
  WithConstraint versions of these methods to enforce the Constraint.

  <h3>Implemented Constraints</h3>

  Classical axial and plane Constraints are provided for convenience: see the LocalConstraint,
  WorldConstraint and CameraConstraint classes' documentations.

  Try the <a href="../examples/constrainedFrame.html">constrainedFrame</a> and <a
  href="../examples/constrainedCamera.html">constrainedCamera</a> examples for an illustration.

  <h3>Creating new Constraints</h3>

  The implementation of a new Constraint class simply consists in overloading the filtering methods:
  \code
  // This Constraint enforces that the Frame cannot have a negative z world coordinate.
  class myConstraint : public Constraint
  {
  public:
    virtual void constrainTranslation(Vec& t, Frame * const fr)
      {
        // Express t in the world coordinate system.
        const Vec tWorld = fr->inverseTransformOf(t);
	if (fr->position().z + tWorld.z < 0.0) // check the new fr z coordinate
	  t.z = fr->transformOf(-fr->position().z); // t.z is clamped so that next z position is 0.0
      }
  };
  \endcode

  Note that the translation (resp. rotation) parameter passed to constrainTranslation() (resp.
  constrainRotation()) is expressed in the \e local Frame coordinate system. Here, we use the
  Frame::transformOf() and Frame::inverseTransformOf() method to convert it to and from the world
  coordinate system.

  Combined constraints can easily be achieved by creating a new class that applies the different
  constraint filters:
  \code
  myConstraint::constrainTranslation(Vec& v, Frame* const fr)
  {
    constraint1->constrainTranslation(v, fr);
    constraint2->constrainTranslation(v, fr);
    // and so on, with possible branches, tests, loops...
  }
  \endcode
  */
  class Constraint
  {
  public:
    /*! Virtual destructor. Empty. */
    virtual ~Constraint() {};

    /*! Filters the translation applied to the \p frame. This default implementation is empty (no
      filtering).

    Overload this method in your own Constraint class to define a new translation constraint. \p
    frame is the Frame to which is applied the translation. It is not defined \c const, but you
    should refrain from directly changing its value in the constraint. Use its Frame::position() and
    update the \p translation accordingly instead.

    \p translation is expressed in local frame coordinate system. Use Frame::inverseTransformOf() to
    express it in the world coordinate system if needed. */
    virtual void constrainTranslation(Vec& translation, Frame* const frame) { Q_UNUSED(translation); Q_UNUSED(frame); };
    /*! Filters the rotation applied to the \p frame. This default implementation is empty (no
      filtering).

    Overload this method in your own Constraint class to define a new rotation constraint. See
    constrainTranslation() for details.

    Use Frame::inverseTransformOf() on the \p rotation Quaternion::axis() to express \p rotation in
    the world coordinate system if needed. */
    virtual void constrainRotation(Quaternion& rotation, Frame* const frame) { Q_UNUSED(rotation); Q_UNUSED(frame); };
  };

  /*!
   \brief An abstract class for Frame Constraints defined by an axis or a plane.
   \class AxisPlaneConstraint constraint.h QGLViewer/constraint.h

   AxisPlaneConstraint is an interface for (translation and/or rotation) Constraint that are defined
   by a direction. translationConstraintType() and rotationConstraintType() define how this
   direction should be interpreted: as an axis (AxisPlaneConstraint::AXIS) or as a plane normal
   (AxisPlaneConstraint::PLANE). See the Type() documentation for details.

   The three implementations of this class: LocalConstraint, WorldConstraint and CameraConstraint
   differ by the coordinate system in which this direction is expressed.

   Different implementations of this class are illustrated in the
   <a href="../examples/constrainedCamera.html">contrainedCamera</a> and
   <a href="../examples/constrainedFrame.html">constrainedFrame</a> examples.

   \attention When applied, the rotational Constraint may not intuitively follow the mouseQU
   displacement. A solution would be to directly measure the rotation angle in screen coordinates,
   but that would imply to know the QGLViewer::camera(), so that we can compute the projected
   coordinates of the rotation center (as is done with the QGLViewer::SCREEN_ROTATE binding).
   However, adding an extra pointer to the QGLViewer::camera() in all the AxisPlaneConstraint
   derived classes (which the user would have to update in a multi-viewer application) was judged as
   an overkill. */
  class AxisPlaneConstraint : public Constraint
  {
  public:
    AxisPlaneConstraint();
    /*! Virtual destructor. Empty. */
    virtual ~AxisPlaneConstraint() {};

    /*! Type lists the different types of translation and rotation constraints that are available.

    It specifies the meaning of the constraint direction (see translationConstraintDirection() and
    rotationConstraintDirection()): as an axis direction (AxisPlaneConstraint::AXIS) or a plane
    normal (AxisPlaneConstraint::PLANE). AxisPlaneConstraint::FREE means no constraint while
    AxisPlaneConstraint::FORBIDDEN completely forbids the translation and/or the rotation.

    See translationConstraintType() and rotationConstraintType().

    \attention The AxisPlaneConstraint::PLANE Type is not valid for rotational constraint.

    New derived classes can use their own extended enum for specific constraints:
    \code
    class MyAxisPlaneConstraint : public AxisPlaneConstraint
    {
    public:
      enum MyType { FREE, AXIS, PLANE, FORBIDDEN, CUSTOM };
      virtual void constrainTranslation(Vec &translation, Frame *const frame)
      {
        // translationConstraintType() is simply an int. CUSTOM Type is handled seamlessly.
        switch (translationConstraintType())
	{
	case MyAxisPlaneConstraint::FREE: ... break;
	case MyAxisPlaneConstraint::CUSTOM: ... break;
	}
      };

      MyAxisPlaneConstraint* c = new MyAxisPlaneConstraint();
      // Note the Type conversion
      c->setTranslationConstraintType(AxisPlaneConstraint::Type(MyAxisPlaneConstraint::CUSTOM));
    };
    \endcode */
