向接受固定大小数组的函数传递浮动指针

I have a number of functions that have the following form:

我有一些函数的形式如下:

typedef float arr3[3];
float newDistanceToLine(arr3 &p0, arr3 &p1, arr3 &p2);

and now find convenient to store lots of points into a long array:

现在可以方便地将很多点存储到一个长数组中:

int n_points = 14;
float *points;
points = new float[3*n_points];

Is there a way to pass pointers to different values of the array "points" to my functions accepting fixed size arrays? I know that the following fails, but, I would like to do something like:

是否有一种方法可以将指针传递给接受固定大小数组的数组“点”的不同值?我知道下面的方法失败了，但是，我想做如下的事情:

newDistanceToLine(&points[3], &points[6], &points[9]);

or get any help on how best to reuse my code.

或者得到任何关于如何最好地重用我的代码的帮助。

Thanks!

谢谢!

Change interface of your newDistanceToLine to use type that is based on pattern that can be called either array_View or span - read this discussion.

更改newDistanceToLine的接口以使用基于可以调用array_View或span的模式的类型——请阅读本文。

Something like this:

是这样的:

typedef float arr3[3];
class arr3_view
{
public:
    arr3_view(arr3& arr) : data(arr) {}
    arr3_view(float* data, std::size_t size) : data(data) 
    {
        if (size != 3) // or < 3 - I am not sure what is better for your case
          throw std::runtime_error("arr3 - wrong size of data: " + std::to_string(size));
    }

    float* begin() { return data; }
    float* end() { return data + 3; }
    float& operator [](std::size_t i) { return data[i]; }
    // and similar stuff as above for const versions

private:
    float* data;
};

float newDistanceToLine(arr3_view p0, arr3_view p1, arr3_view p2);

So - for you 9-elements arrays we will have such usage:

因此，对于你的9个元素数组，我们将有这样的用法:

newDistanceToLine(arr3_view(arr, 3), 
                  arr3_view(arr + 3, 3), 
                  arr3_view(arr + 6, 3));

Use data structure instead.

使用数据结构。

struct SPosition
{
SPosition( float x = 0, float y = 0, float z = 0)
    :X(x)
    ,Y(y)
    ,Z(z)
{

}
float X;
float Y;
float Z;
};

std::vector<SPosition> m_positions;

float newDistanceToLine( const SPosition& pt1, const SPosition& pt2, const SPosition& pt3 )
{
    // to do
    return 0.f;
};
