CGAL::HalfedgeDS_items_2 Class Reference

#include <CGAL/HalfedgeDS_items_2.h>

Definition

The class HalfedgeDS_items_2 is a model of the HalfedgeDSItems concept.

It uses the default types for vertices, halfedges, and faces that declare all incidences supported by a HalfedgeDS. The vertex also contains a point of type Traits::Point_2, where Traits is the template argument of the corresponding HalfedgeDS.

Is Model Of:

HalfedgeDSItems

Example

The following example shows the canonical implementation of the HalfedgeDS_items_2 class. It uses the base classes for the item types that are provided in the library.

struct HalfedgeDS_items_2 { 
template < class Refs, class Traits> 
struct Vertex_wrapper { 
typedef typename Traits::Point_2 Point; 
typedef CGAL::HalfedgeDS_vertex_base< Refs, Tag_true, Point> Vertex; 
}; 
template < class Refs, class Traits> 
struct Halfedge_wrapper { 
typedef CGAL::HalfedgeDS_halfedge_base< Refs> Halfedge; 
}; 
template < class Refs, class Traits> 
struct Face_wrapper { 
typedef CGAL::HalfedgeDS_face_base< Refs> Face; 
}; 
}; 

The following example shows a class definition for a new items class derived from the HalfedgeDS_items_2 class. It replaces the Face_wrapper with a new definition of a face that contains a member variable for color. The new face makes use of the face base class provided in the library.

// A face type with a color member variable. 
template <class Refs> 
struct My_face : public CGAL::HalfedgeDS_face_base<Refs> { 
CGAL::Color color; 
My_face() {} 
My_face( CGAL::Color c) : color(c) {} 
}; 

// An items type using my face. 
struct My_items : public CGAL::HalfedgeDS_items_2 { 
template <class Refs, class Traits> 
struct Face_wrapper { 
typedef My_face<Refs> Face; 
}; 
};
