algorithmic modeling for Rhino
Hi.
I get a DataTree<Point3d> as input to my c# script, and I would like to copy this DataTree to a variable, in order to treat the points and aferwards compare them.
Because of the C# value and reference types (the Class DataTree being the latter), I cannot seem to be able to create a copy of my input class. Hence, all the changes I make affect both the original and "cloned" DataTree.
Example:
RunScript(DataTree<Point3d> originalPoints)
{
// clone
DataTree<Point3d> copyTree = originalPoints;
for(int i = 0; i < copyTree.BranchCount; i++)
{
//The path for this index
GH_Path path = copyTree.Path(i);
//The count of elements in this index
int elementCount = copyTree.Branch(i).Count;
if(elementCount > 0)
{
for(int k = 0; k < elementCount; k++)
{
// The k point in this path
Point3d kPoint = copyTree[path, k];
//change
kPoint.X += 2;
copyTree.Branch(path).RemoveAt(k);
copyTree.Branch(path).Insert(k, kPoint);
}
}
}
Because the my copyTree only is a pointer to the originalPoints, a comparison afterwards shows all points to be the same.
Is there a DataTree constructor that clones itself, or a way to create a new Datatree and fill it with the values from the original?
Cheers, Peter
