      • addSwitchingCondition

        public <T extends EventDetector> void addSwitchingCondition​(AttitudeProvider past,
                                                            AttitudeProvider future,
                                                            T switchEvent,
                                                            boolean switchOnIncrease,
                                                            boolean switchOnDecrease,
                                                            AttitudeSwitchHandler switchHandler)
        Add a switching condition between two attitude providers.

        The past and future attitude providers are defined with regard to the natural flow of time. This means that if the propagation is forward, the propagator will switch from past provider to future provider at event occurrence, but if the propagation is backward, the propagator will switch from future provider to past provider at event occurrence.

        An attitude provider may have several different switch events associated to it. Depending on which event is triggered, the appropriate provider is switched to.

        If the underlying detector has an event handler associated to it, this handler will be triggered (i.e. its eventOccurred method will be called), regardless of the event really triggering an attitude switch or not. As an example, if an eclipse detector is used to switch from day to night attitude mode when entering eclipse, with switchOnIncrease set to false and switchOnDecrease set to true. Then a handler set directly at eclipse detector level would be triggered at both eclipse entry and eclipse exit, but attitude switch would occur only at eclipse entry.

        Type Parameters:
        T - class type for the switch event
        Parameters:
        past - attitude provider applicable for times in the switch event occurrence past
        future - attitude provider applicable for times in the switch event occurrence future
        switchEvent - event triggering the attitude providers switch
        switchOnIncrease - if true, switch is triggered on increasing event
        switchOnDecrease - if true, switch is triggered on decreasing event
        switchHandler - handler to call for notifying when switch occurs (may be null)

      • getEventDetectors

        public Stream<EventDetector> getEventDetectors()
        Description copied from interface: AttitudeProvider
        Get the discrete events related to the model.

        This method is not intended to be called several time, only once by a propagator, as it has the side effect of rebuilding the events detectors when called

        Returns:
        stream of event detectors

      • getFieldEventDetectors

        public <T extends CalculusFieldElement<T>> Stream<FieldEventDetector<T>> getFieldEventDetectors​(Field<T> field)
        Description copied from interface: AttitudeProvider
        Get the discrete events related to the model.

        This method is not intended to be called several time, only once by a propagator, as it has the side effect of rebuilding the events detectors when called

        Type Parameters:
        T - extends CalculusFieldElement<T>
        Parameters:
        field - field to which the state belongs
        Returns:
        stream of event detectors

      • resetActiveProvider

        public void resetActiveProvider​(AttitudeProvider provider)
        Reset the active provider.

        Calling this method clears all already seen switch history, so it should not be used during the propagation itself, it is intended to be used only at start

        Parameters:
        provider - provider to activate

      • setActivated

        protected void setActivated​(TimeSpanMap<AttitudeProvider> activated)
        Setter for map of activate attitude providers.
        Parameters:
        activated - new map

      • getActivated

        protected TimeSpanMap<AttitudeProvider> getActivated()
        Getter for map of activated attitude providers.
        Returns:
        map of providers

      • getAttitude

                            Frame frame)
        Compute the attitude corresponding to an orbital state.
        Specified by:
