Sets the name for the idx-th coordinate supported by this coupling.

This method allows joint coordinates to be renamed so as to be compatible with the names used by equivalent joints in different modeling systems (e.g., OpenSim). If the joint provides special methods with hardwired names to access coordinate values (e.g., HingeJoint.setTheta(double) and HingeJoint.getTheta() in HingeJoint), those methods will be unaffacted and will continue to access the coordinate at the same location.

Parameters:

idx - index of the coordinate

name - new coordinate name

getCoordinateIndex

Returns the index for the coordinate with a given name. If the joint does not contain a coordinate with the specified name, returns -1.

Parameters:
