CGAL 4.5 - CGAL and the Boost Graph Library
|
Bgl defines the class template boost::graph_traits
as a uniform interface to the properties and types of graph types.
We provide specializations of this class template for several CGAL data structures.
Defined in <CGAL/boost/graph/graph_traits_Polyhedron_3.h>
We provide partial specialization for the class CGAL::Polyhedron_3
so that it is a model of the graph concepts BidirectionalGraph
and EdgeAndVertexListGraph
and of the concept MutableFaceGraph
.
The const specialization, boost::graph_traits< CGAL::Polyhedron_3<Traits> const>
is also defined, using the constant handles in the polyhedron.
The traits class boost::graph_traits< CGAL::Polyhedron_3<T> >
provides the following types:
Member | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
vertex_descriptor | Polyhedron_3::Vertex_handle | The vertex descriptor |
edge_descriptor | unspecified_type | The edge descriptor |
halfedge_descriptor | Polyhedron_3::Halfedge_handle | The halfedge descriptor |
face_descriptor | Polyhedron_3::Face_handle | The face descriptor |
adjacency_iterator | CGAL::Vertex_around_target_iterator<Polyhedron_3<T> > | Iterates through adjacent vertices |
out_edge_iterator | CGAL::Out_edge_iterator<Polyhedron_3<T> > | Iterate through the out-edges of a vertex. |
in_edge_iterator | CGAL::Out_edge_iterator<Polyhedron_3<T> > | Iterate through the in-edges of a vertex. |
vertex_iterator | unspecified_type | Iterate through the vertices of a polyhedron. |
edge_iterator | unspecified_type | Iterate through the edges of a polyhedron. |
halfedge_iterator | Polyhedron_3::Halfedge_iterator | Iterate through the halfedges of a polyhedron. |
face_iterator | Polyhedron_3::Face_iterator | Iterate through the faces of a polyhedron. |
directed_category | Inherits from boost::bidirectional_graph_tag , boost::vertex_list_graph_tag and boost::edge_list_graph_tag | |
edge_parallel_category | boost::disallow_parallel_edge_tag | Indicates that this graph does not support multiedges |
traversal_category | boost::bidirectional_graph_tag | Indicates that this graph is bidirectional |
vertices_size_type | Polyhedron_3::size_type | The size type of the vertex list |
edges_size_type | Polyhedron_3::size_type | The size type of the edge list |
degree_size_type | Polyhedron_3::size_type | The size type of the adjacency list |
For convenience, the type edge_descriptor
is hashable using the functor CGAL::Handle_hash_function
that is the default hash functor of CGAL::Unique_hash_map
.
Defined in <CGAL/boost/graph/graph_traits_Triangulation_2.h>
and <CGAL/boost/graph/graph_traits_Delaunay_triangulation_2.h>
We provide partial specialization for the classes Triangulation_2
and Delaunay_triangulation_2
so that they are model of the graph concepts BidirectionalGraph
and EdgeAndVertexListGraph
.
The mapping between vertices and edges of the triangulation and the graph is rather straightforward, but there are some subtleties. The value type of the Bgl iterators is the vertex or edge descriptor, whereas in CGAL all iterators and circulators are also handles and hence have as value type Vertex or Edge.
The graph traits class for triangulations does not distinguish between finite and infinite vertices and edges. As the edge weight computed with the default property map of Bgl algorithms (obtained with get(t, boost::edge_weight)
) is the length of the edge, the edge weight is not well defined for infinite edges. For algorithms that make use of the edge weight the user must therefore define a boost::filtered_graph
or pass a property map to the algorithm that returns "infinity" for infinite edges.
Note also that when you derive from the class CGAL::Triangulation_2
you must upcast the object in order to use this partial specialization.
For the user convenience, CGAL provides the partial specializations for all 2D triangulation classes.
The traits class boost::graph_traits< CGAL::Triangulation_2<GT, TDS> >
and boost::graph_traits< CGAL::Delaunay_triangulation_2<GT, TDS> >
provide the following types:
Member | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
vertex_descriptor | Triangulation::Vertex_handle | The vertex descriptor |
edge_descriptor | unspecified_type | It is constructible from and convertible to Triangulation::Edge . The edge descriptor is not a simple typedef, but a proper class, because in an undirected graph the edges (u,v) and (v,u) must be equal. This is not the case for the Edge type of the triangulation. |
adjacency_iterator | unspecified_type | An iterator for the vertices adjacent to a vertex. Its value type is vertex_descriptor |
out_edge_iterator | unspecified_type | An iterator for the outgoing edges incident to a vertex. Its value type is edge_descriptor . |
in_edge_iterator | unspecified_type | An iterator for the incoming edges incident to a vertex. Its value type is edge_descriptor . |
vertex_iterator | unspecified_type | The vertex iterator type. Its value type is vertex_descriptor |
edge_iterator | unspecified_type | The edge iterator type, Its value type is edge_descriptor |
directed_category | boost::undirected_tag | |
edge_parallel_category | boost::disallow_parallel_edge_tag | Indicates that this graph does not support multiedges |
traversal_category | boost::bidirectional_graph_tag | Indicates that this graph is bidirectional |
vertices_size_type | Triangulation::size_type | The size type of the vertex list |
edges_size_type | Triangulation::size_type | The size type of the edge list |
degree_size_type | Triangulation::size_type | The size type of the adjacency list |
Defined in <CGAL/boost/graph/graph_traits_Arrangement_2.h>
We provide partial specialization for the class Arrangement_2
so that it is model of the graph concepts BidirectionalGraph
and EdgeAndVertexListGraph
.
The const specialization, boost::graph_traits< CGAL::Arrangement_2<Traits,Dcel> const>
is also defined, using the constant handles in the arrangement.
The traits class boost::graph_traits< CGAL::Arrangement_2<T, DC> >
provides the following types:

adjacency_iterator | Not provided | |
