Gets the collisions detected.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GetCollisions( _
   ByVal TreatContactAsCollision As System.Boolean, _
   ByRef Collisions As System.Object _
) As System.Integer
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ICollisionDetectionManager
Dim TreatContactAsCollision As System.Boolean
Dim Collisions As System.Object
Dim value As System.Integer
 
value = instance.GetCollisions(TreatContactAsCollision, Collisions)
C# 
System.int GetCollisions( 
   System.bool TreatContactAsCollision,
   out System.object Collisions
)
C++/CLI 
System.int GetCollisions( 
&   System.bool TreatContactAsCollision,
&   [Out] System.Object^ Collisions
) 

Parameters

TreatContactAsCollision
True to treat touching faces/edges/vertices as colliding, false to require solid bodies to overlap in a finite volume
Collisions
Array of ICollisions

Return Value

Number of collisions found

Example

See the ICollisionDetectionManager example.

Remarks

Use ICollisionDetectionManager::IsCollisionPresent to determine whether to run this method.

This method can take significantly longer to execute than ICollisionDetectionManager::IsCollisionPresent, because this method might perform the collision detection calculation repeatedly.
