Detailed Description

Base class for collecting objects inherited from ChLcpConstraint or ChLcpVariables. All LCP solvers require that the description of the system is passed by means of a ChLcpSystemDescriptor, where all constraints, variables, masses, known terms (ex.forces) are represented as sparse data that are objects inherited from ChLcpConstraint or ChLcpVariables. Within this default implementation, the ChLcpSystemDescriptor simply contains two vectors with pointers to the variables and constraints, but more advanced implementation (ex. for supporting parallel GPU solvers) could store constraints and variables structures with more efficient data schemes.
