Definition

A constrained triangulation is a triangulation of a set of points which has to include among its edges a given set of segments joining the points.

The given segments are called constraints and the corresponding edges in the triangulation are called constrained edges.

The endpoints of constrained edges are of course vertices of the triangulation. However the triangulation may include other vertices as well. There are three versions of constrained triangulations

In the basic version, the constrained triangulation does not handle intersecting constraints, and the set of input constraints is required to be a set of segments that do not intersect except possibly at their endpoints. Any number of constrained edges are allowed to share the same endpoint. Vertical constrained edges are allowed as well as constrained edges with null length.
The two other versions support intersecting input constraints. In those versions, input constraints are allowed to be intersecting, overlapping or partially overlapping segments. The triangulation introduce additional vertices at each point which is a proper intersection point of two constraints. A single constraint intersecting other constraints will then appear as the union of several constrained edges of the triangulation. The two versions dealing with intersecting constraints, slightly differ in the way intersecting constraints are dealt with.
- One of them is designed to be robust when predicates are evaluated exactly but constructions (i. e. intersection computations) are approximate.
- The other one is designed to be used with an exact arithmetic (meaning exact evaluation of predicates and exact computation of intersections.) This last version finds its full efficiency when used in conjunction with a constraint hierarchy data structure as provided in the class Constrained_triangulation_plus_2. See Section Constrained Triangulations Plus.

Template Parameters

Traits	is a geometric traits class and must be a model of the concept `TriangulationTraits_2`. When intersection of input constraints are supported, the geometric traits class is required to provide additional function object types to compute the intersection of two segments. It has then to be a model of the concept `ConstrainedTriangulationTraits_2`.
Tds	must be a model of the concept `TriangulationDataStructure_2`.
Itag	is the intersection tag which serves to choose between the different strategies to deal with constraints intersections. CGAL provides three valid types for this parameter: `No_intersection_tag` disallows intersections of input constraints, `Exact_predicates_tag` is to be used when the traits class provides exact predicates but approximate constructions of the intersection points. `Exact_intersections_tag` is to be used in conjunction with an exact arithmetic type.

The information about constrained edges is stored in the faces of the triangulation. Thus the nested Face type of a constrained triangulation offers additional functionalities to deal with this information. These additional functionalities induce additional requirements on the base face class plugged into the triangulation data structure of a constrained Delaunay triangulation. The base face of a constrained Delaunay triangulation has to be a model of the concept ConstrainedTriangulationFaceBase_2.

CGAL provides default instantiations for the template parameters Tds and Itag, and for the ConstrainedTriangulationFaceBase_2. If Gt is the geometric traits parameter, the default for ConstrainedTriangulationFaceBase_2 is the class Constrained_triangulation_face_base_2<Gt> and the default for the triangulation data structure parameter is the class Triangulation_data_structure_2 < Triangulation_vertex_base_2<Gt>, Constrained_triangulation_face_base_2<Gt> >. The default intersection tag is No_intersection_tag.

Implementation

The insertion of a constrained edge runs in time proportional to the number of triangles intersected by this edge.
