Computes the barycentric coordinates for a point with respect to a triangle.

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
`point` | Cartesian2 | Cartesian3 | The point to test.
`p0` | Cartesian2 | Cartesian3 | The first point of the triangle, corresponding to the barycentric x-axis.
`p1` | Cartesian2 | Cartesian3 | The second point of the triangle, corresponding to the barycentric y-axis.
`p2` | Cartesian2 | Cartesian3 | The third point of the triangle, corresponding to the barycentric z-axis.
`result` | Cartesian3 | optional The object onto which to store the result.

##### Returns:

engine/Source/Core/destroyObject.js 35

Destroys an object. Each of the object's functions, including functions in its prototype, is replaced with a function that throws a `DeveloperError`, except for the object's `isDestroyed` function, which is set to a function that returns `true`. The object's properties are removed with `delete`.
This function is used by objects that hold native resources, e.g., WebGL resources, which need to be explicitly released. Client code calls an object's `destroy` function, which then releases the native resource and calls `destroyObject` to put itself in a destroyed state.

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
`object` | object | The object to destroy.
`message` | string | optional The message to include in the exception that is thrown if a destroyed object's function is called.

##### Example:

    // How a texture would destroy itself.
    this.destroy = function () {
        _gl.deleteTexture(_texture);
        return Cesium.destroyObject(this);
    };

#### exportKml(options) → Promise.<(exportKmlResultKml|exportKmlResultKmz)>
engine/Source/DataSources/exportKml.js 238

Exports an EntityCollection as a KML document. Only Point, Billboard, Model, Path, Polygon, Polyline geometries will be exported. Note that there is not a 1 to 1 mapping of Entity properties to KML Feature properties. For example, entity properties that are time dynamic but cannot be dynamic in KML are exported with their values at options.time or the beginning of the EntityCollection's time interval if not specified. For time-dynamic properties that are supported in KML, we use the samples if it is a `SampledProperty` otherwise we sample the value using the options.sampleDuration. Point, Billboard, Model and Path geometries with time-dynamic positions will be exported as gx:Track Features. Not all Materials are representable in KML, so for more advanced Materials just the primary color is used. Canvas objects are exported as PNG images.

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
`options` | object | An object with the following properties:
Name | Type | Default | Description
--- | --- | --- | ---

`modelCallback` | exportKmlModelCallback |  | optional A callback that will be called with a `ModelGraphics` instance and should return the URI to use in the KML. Required if a model exists in the entity collection.
`time` | JulianDate | `entities.computeAvailability().start` | optional The time value to use to get properties that are not time varying in KML.
`defaultAvailability` | TimeInterval | `entities.computeAvailability()` | optional The interval that will be sampled if an entity doesn't have an availability.
`sampleDuration` | number | `60` | optional The number of seconds to sample properties that are varying in KML.
`kmz` | boolean | `false` | optional If true KML and external files will be compressed into a kmz file.

##### Returns:

A promise that resolved to an object containing the KML string and a dictionary of external file blobs, or a kmz file as a blob if options.kmz is true.

##### Example:

    Cesium.exportKml({
         entities: entityCollection
     })
      .then(function(result) {
        // The XML string is in result.kml

        const externalFiles = result.externalFiles
        for(const file in externalFiles) {
          // file is the name of the file used in the KML document as the href

#### sampleTerrain(terrainProvider, level, positions, rejectOnTileFail) → Promise.<Array.<Cartographic>>
engine/Source/Core/sampleTerrain.js 4

Initiates a terrain height query for an array of `Cartographic` positions by requesting tiles from a terrain provider, sampling, and interpolating. The interpolation matches the triangles used to render the terrain at the specified level. The query happens asynchronously, so this function returns a promise that is resolved when the query completes. Each point height is modified in place. If a height can not be determined because no terrain data is available for the specified level at that location, or another error occurs, the height is set to undefined. As is typical of the `Cartographic` type, the supplied height is a height above the reference ellipsoid (such as `Ellipsoid.WGS84`) rather than an altitude above mean sea level. In other words, it will not necessarily be 0.0 if sampled in the ocean. This function needs the terrain level of detail as input, if you need to get the altitude of the terrain as precisely as possible (i.e. with maximum level of detail) use `sampleTerrainMostDetailed`.

Name | Type | Default | Description
--- | --- | --- | ---
`terrainProvider` | TerrainProvider |  | The terrain provider from which to query heights.
`level` | number |  | The terrain level-of-detail from which to query terrain heights.
`positions` | Array.<Cartographic> |  | The positions to update with terrain heights.
`rejectOnTileFail` | boolean | `false` | optional If true, for any failed terrain tile requests, the promise will be rejected. If false, returned heights will be undefined.

##### Returns:

A promise that resolves to the provided list of positions when terrain the query has completed.

##### Example:

    // Query the terrain height of two Cartographic positions
    const terrainProvider = await Cesium.createWorldTerrainAsync();
    const positions = [
        Cesium.Cartographic.fromDegrees(86.925145, 27.988257),
        Cesium.Cartographic.fromDegrees(87.0, 28.0)
    ];
    const updatedPositions = await Cesium.sampleTerrain(terrainProvider, 11, positions);
    // positions[0].height and positions[1].height have been updated.
    // updatedPositions is just a reference to positions.

    // To handle tile errors, pass true for the rejectOnTileFail parameter.
    try {
       const updatedPositions = await Cesium.sampleTerrain(terrainProvider, 11, positions, true);
    } catch (error) {
      // A tile request error occurred.
    }

`positions` | Array.<Cartographic> |  | The positions to update with terrain heights.
`rejectOnTileFail` | boolean | `false` | optional If true, for a failed terrain tile request the promise will be rejected. If false, returned heights will be undefined.

##### Returns:

A promise that resolves to the provided list of positions when terrain the query has completed. This promise will reject if the terrain provider's `availability` property is undefined.

##### Example:

    // Query the terrain height of two Cartographic positions
    const terrainProvider = await Cesium.createWorldTerrainAsync();
    const positions = [
        Cesium.Cartographic.fromDegrees(86.925145, 27.988257),
        Cesium.Cartographic.fromDegrees(87.0, 28.0)
    ];
    const updatedPositions = await Cesium.sampleTerrainMostDetailed(terrainProvider, positions);
    // positions[0].height and positions[1].height have been updated.
    // updatedPositions is just a reference to positions.

    // To handle tile errors, pass true for the rejectOnTileFail parameter.
    try {
       const updatedPositions = await Cesium.sampleTerrainMostDetailed(terrainProvider, positions, true);

WebGL options to be passed on to HTMLCanvasElement.getContext(). See WebGLContextAttributes but note the modified defaults for 'alpha', 'stencil', and 'powerPreference'

`alpha` defaults to false, which can improve performance compared to the standard WebGL default of true. If an application needs to composite Cesium above other HTML elements using alpha-blending, set `alpha` to true.

##### Properties:

Name | Type | Attributes | Default | Description
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
`alpha` | boolean | <optional> | false |
`depth` | boolean | <optional> | true |
`stencil` | boolean | <optional> | false |
`antialias` | boolean | <optional> | true |
`premultipliedAlpha` | boolean | <optional> | true |
`preserveDrawingBuffer` | boolean | <optional> | false |
`powerPreference` | "default" | "low-power" | "high-performance" | <optional> | "high-performance" |
`failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat` | boolean | <optional> | false |
