SUBROUTINE PMV(x, y, z) REAL x, y, z
SUBROUTINE PMVI(x, y, z) INTEGER*4 x, y, z
SUBROUTINE PMVS(x, y, z) INTEGER*2 x, y, z
SUBROUTINE PMV2(x, y) REAL x, y
SUBROUTINE PMV2I(x, y) INTEGER*4 x, y
SUBROUTINE PMV2S(x, y) INTEGER*2 x, y
Note: For FORTRAN users, the INTEGER*2 versions of this subroutine, PMVS and PMV2S, should not be called with integer constant parameters. For example, 2 is an integer constant; JJ is an integer variable. The XL FORTRAN compiler, invoked by the xlf command, stores all integer constants as long integers (INTEGER*4), not as short integers (INTEGER*2). Invoking one of the short versions of this subroutine with an integer constant will result in unexpected behavior.
The pmv subroutine specifies the starting point of a filled polygon. To draw a typical polygon, start with a call to the pmv subroutine, follow it with a sequence of calls to the pdr subroutine, and end it with a call to the pclos subroutine.
There can be no more than 256 vertices in a polygon. Therefore, there can be no more than 255 calls to the pdr subroutine between calls to the pmv and pclos subroutines.
Between calls to the pmv and pclos subroutines, you can issue calls only to the following GL subroutines:
Use the lmdef and lmbind subroutines to respecify only materials and their properties.
The six different forms for the pmv subroutine are as follows:
| 2-D | 3-D | |
| Int16 | pmv2s | pmvs |
| Int32 | pmv2i | pmvi |
| float | pmv2 | pmv |
The syntax for each of the subroutine forms is the same except for the parameter type. They differ only in that pmv expects real coordinates, pmvi expects integer coordinates, and pmvs expects short integer coordinates. In addition, the pmv2 routines assume a 2-D point instead of a 3-D point.
The example C language program zbuffer1.c uses the pmv subroutine to move to the beginning position for drawing a filled polygon.
This subroutine is part of GL in the AIXwindows Environment/6000 Version 1, Release 2 with AIXwindows/3D Feature.
