Description

PQLSR queries the workstation state list and returns the light source type and a data record that describes the light source. 

Data Record Information

If LSTYP is PAMB, the data record format is as follows:

INTEGER IL    = 2    Number of integer values
INTEGER IA(1) =      Color type
INTEGER RL    = ∗    Actual data of the color values as required by CT
        RA()  =
        SL    = 0
        LSTR  = ()
        STR   = ()
    If the color type is PINDIR:
        IA(2) =  Color index
    If the color type is PRGB, PCIE, PHSV, or PHLS:
        IA(2) =  Number of color value components (NCC)
        RA    =  Elements 1 through NCC contain the color values

If LSTYP is PDIRE, the data record format is as follows:

INTEGER IL    = 2    Number of integer values
INTEGER IA(1) =      Color type
INTEGER RL    = 3+∗
REAL    RA(1) =      x-value of the direction vector, in
                         world coordinates
REAL    RA(2) =      y-value of the direction vector, in
                         world coordinates
REAL    RA(3) =      z-value of the direction vector, in
                         world coordinates
        SL    = 0
        LSTR  = ()
        STR   = ()
        If the color type is PINDIR:
             IA(2) = Color index
        If the color type is PRGB, PCIE, PHSV, or PHLS:
 
             IA(2) =  Number of color value components (NCC)
             RA    =  Elements 4 through 3+NCC contain the color values

If LSTYP is PPOSI, the data record format is as follows:

INTEGER IL    = 2     Number of integer values
INTEGER IA(1) =       Color type
INTEGER RL    = 5+∗   Number of real values
REAL    RA(1) =       x-value of the direction vector, in
                          world coordinates
REAL    RA(2) =       y-value of the direction vector, in
                          world coordinates
REAL    RA(3) =       z-value of the direction vector, in
                          world coordinates
REAL    RA(4) =       Attenuation coefficient 1
REAL    RA(5) =       Attenuation coefficient 2
        SL    = 0
        LSTR  = ()
        STR   = ()
        If the color type is PINDIR:
             IA(2)  = Color index
        If the color type is PRGB, PCIE, PHSV, or PHLS:
             IA(2)  = Number of color value components (NCC)
             RA     = Elements 6 through 5+NCC contain the color values

If LSTYP is PSPOT, the data record format is as follows:

INTEGER IL     = 2     Number of integer values
INTEGER IA(1)  =       Color type
INTEGER RL     = 10+∗  Number of real values
REAL    RA(1)  =       x-coordinate of the light source position,
                           in world coordinates
REAL    RA(2)  =       y-coordinate of the light source position,
                           in world coordinates
REAL    RA(3)  =       z-coordinate of the light source position,
                           in world coordinates
REAL    RA(4)  =       x-value of the light source direction,
                           in world coordinates
REAL    RA(5)  =       y-value of the light source direction,
                           in world coordinates
REAL    RA(6)  =       z-value of the light source direction,
                           in world coordinates
REAL    RA(7)  =       Concentration exponent
REAL    RA(8)  =       Attenuation coefficient 1
REAL    RA(9)  =       Attenuation coefficient 2
REAL    RA(10) =       Spread angle, in radians
        SL     = 0
        LSTR   = ()
        STR    = ()
        If the color type is PINDIR:
             IA(2) =  Color index
        If the color type is PRGB, PCIE, PHSV, or PHLS:
             IA(2) =  Number of color value components (NCC)
             RA    =  Elements 11 through 10+NCC contain the color values
