Types#
MuJoCo defines a large number of types:
Two primitive types.
C enums used to define categorical values. These can be classified according to their use in:
Abstract visualization.
The openGL renderer.
The mjUI user interface package.
Note that the API does not use these enum types directly. Instead it uses ints, and the documentation/comments state that certain ints correspond to certain enum types. This is because we want the API to be compiler-independent, and the C standard does not dictate how many bytes must be used to represent an enum type. Nevertheless, for improved readiblity, we recommend using these types when calling API functions which take them as arguments.
C struct types. These can be classified as:
Main struct types. These are mjModel, mjOption and mjData.
Auxillary struct types, also used by the engine.
Structs for collecting simulation statistics.
Structs for abstract visualization.
Structs used by the openGL renderer.
Structs used by the UI framework.
Several Function types for user-defined callbacks.
Primitive types#
The two types below are defined in mjtnum.h.
mjtNum#
This is the floating-point type used throughout the simulator. If the symbol mjUSEDOUBLE is defined in
mjmodel.h, this type is defined as double, otherwise it is defined as float. Currently only the
double-precision version of MuJoCo is distributed, although the entire code base works with single-precision as well.
We may release the single-precision version in the future for efficiency reasons, but the double-precision version
will always be available. Thus it is safe to write user code assuming double precision. However, our preference is to
write code that works with either single or double precision. To this end we provide math utility functions that are
always defined with the correct floating-point type.
Note that changing mjUSEDOUBLE in mjtnum.h will not change how the library was compiled, and instead will
result in numerous link errors. In general, the header files distributed with precompiled MuJoCo should never be
changed by the user.
#ifdef mjUSEDOUBLE
typedef double mjtNum;
#else
typedef float mjtNum;
#endif
mjtByte#
Byte type used to represent boolean variables.
typedef unsigned char mjtByte;
Model enums#
The enums below are defined in mjmodel.h.
mjtDisableBit#
Constants which are powers of 2. They are used as bitmasks for the field disableflags of mjOption.
At runtime this field is m->opt.disableflags. The number of these constants is given by mjNDISABLE which is
also the length of the global string array mjDISABLESTRING with text descriptions of these flags.
typedef enum mjtDisableBit_ { // disable default feature bitflags

Function types#
MuJoCo callbacks have corresponding function types. They are defined in mjdata.h and in mjui.h. The actual callback functions are documented in the globals page.
mjfGeneric#
typedef void (*mjfGeneric)(const mjModel* m, mjData* d);
This is the function type of the callbacks mjcb_passive and mjcb_control.
mjfConFilt#
typedef int (*mjfConFilt)(const mjModel* m, mjData* d, int geom1, int geom2);
This is the function type of the callback mjcb_contactfilter. The return value is 1: discard, 0: proceed with collision check.
mjfSensor#
typedef void (*mjfSensor)(const mjModel* m, mjData* d, int stage);
This is the function type of the callback mjcb_sensor.
mjfTime#
typedef mjtNum (*mjfTime)(void);
This is the function type of the callback mjcb_time.
mjfAct#
typedef mjtNum (*mjfAct)(const mjModel* m, const mjData* d, int id);
This is the function type of the callbacks mjcb_act_dyn, mjcb_act_gain and mjcb_act_bias.
mjfCollision#
typedef int (*mjfCollision)(const mjModel* m, const mjData* d,
mjContact* con, int g1, int g2, mjtNum margin);
This is the function type of the callbacks in the collision table mjCOLLISIONFUNC.
mjfItemEnable#
typedef int (*mjfItemEnable)(int category, void* data);
This is the function type of the predicate function used by the UI framework to determine if each item is enabled or disabled.
