How to map texture to cylinder in unmanaged DirectX?

Question

In C#.net I have a mesh cylinder with a dynamic diameter and length and am trying to map a texture to it. I have spent the better part of a day trying to find out how to do so but have had no success finding any information on Google.

The cylinders texture has a top area of the jpg and the side has the rest of the jpg. I need to position the jpgs image edge along the top edge of the cylinder. eg. Red on top and green on side using one image.

Can anyone help me to map the VertexBuffer points to the texture?

C#.Net 2008 DirectX 9 (unmanaged)

Answer 1

Ok, I've finally figured it out. I had some code previously that was working but not exactly what I was wanting from http://channel9.msdn.com/coding4fun/articles/Ask-the-ZMan-Applying-Textures-Part-3

Anyway, I just did some mods to it.

For reference and for those arriving from Google, here you go.

public static float ComputeBoundingSphere(Mesh mesh, out Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3 center)
    {
        // Lock the vertex buffer
        Microsoft.DirectX.GraphicsStream data = null;
        try
        {
            data = mesh.LockVertexBuffer(LockFlags.ReadOnly);
            // Now compute the bounding sphere
            return Geometry.ComputeBoundingSphere(data, mesh.NumberVertices, 
                mesh.VertexFormat, out center);
        }
        finally
        {
            // Make sure to unlock the vertex buffer
            if (data != null)
                mesh.UnlockVertexBuffer();
        }
    }

    private static Mesh SetSphericalTexture(Mesh mesh)
    {
        Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3 vertexRay;
        Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3 meshCenter;
        double phi;
        float u;


        Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3 north = new Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3(0f, 0f, 1f);
        Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3 equator = new Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3(0f, 1f, 0f);
        Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3 northEquatorCross = Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3.Cross(north, equator);

        ComputeBoundingSphere(mesh, out meshCenter);

        using (VertexBuffer vb = mesh.VertexBuffer)
        {
            CustomVertex.PositionNormalTextured[] verts = (CustomVertex.PositionNormalTextured[])vb.Lock(0, typeof(CustomVertex.PositionNormalTextured), LockFlags.None, mesh.NumberVertices);
            try
            {
                for (int i = 0; i < verts.Length; i++)
                {
                    //For each vertex take a ray from the centre of the mesh to the vertex and normalize so the dot products work.
                    vertexRay = Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3.Normalize(verts[i].Position - meshCenter);

                    phi = Math.Acos((double)vertexRay.Z);
                    if (vertexRay.Z > -0.9)
                    {
                        verts[i].Tv = 0.121f; //percentage of the image being the top side
                    }
                    else
                        verts[i].Tv = (float)(phi / Math.PI);

                    if (vertexRay.Z == 1.0f || vertexRay.Z == -1.0f)
                    {
                        verts[i].Tu = 0.5f;
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        u = (float)(Math.Acos(Math.Max(Math.Min((double)vertexRay.Y / Math.Sin(phi), 1.0), -1.0)) / (2.0 * Math.PI));
                        //Since the cross product is just giving us (1,0,0) i.e. the xaxis 
                        //and the dot product was giving us a +ve or -ve angle, we can just compare the x value with 0
                        verts[i].Tu = (vertexRay.X > 0f) ? u : 1 - u;
                    }
                }
            }
            finally
            {
                vb.Unlock();
            }
        }
        return mesh;
    }
