Traits Classes

#include <CGAL/Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3.h>

Definition

The functionality of this class has been generalized to other packages than 2D triangulations.

The more general class Projection_traits_xy_3 can be found in the 2D and 3D Linear Geometric Kernel.

Deprecated:
The class Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3 is a geometric traits class which allows to triangulate a terrain. This traits class is designed to build a two dimensional triangulation embedded in 3D space, i.e. a triangulated surface, such that its on the \( xy\) plane is a Delaunay triangulation. This is a usual construction for GIS terrains. Instead of really projecting the 3D points and maintaining a mapping between each point and its projection (which costs space and is error prone) the class Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3 supplies geometric predicates that ignore the z-coordinate of the points.

The class is a model of the concept DelaunayTriangulationTraits_2 except that it does not provide the type and constructors required to build the dual Voronoi diagram. The class is also a model of the concept ConstrainedTriangulationTraits_2.

Parameters

The template parameter K has to be instantiated by a model of the Kernel concept. Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3 uses types and predicates defined in K.

CGAL provides also predefined geometric traits class Triangulation_euclidean_traits_yz_3<K> and Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xz_3<K> to deal with projections on the xz- or the yz-plane, respectively.

template<typename K >
typedef unspecified_type CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3< K >::Compare_distance_2

Predicate object.

Provides the operator :

Comparison_result operator()(Point_2 p, Point_2 q, Point_2 r) which returns SMALLER, EQUAL or LARGER according to the distance between the projection of p and the projection of q being smaller, equal or larger than the distance between the projection of p and the projection of r.

template<typename K >
typedef unspecified_type CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3< K >::Compare_x_2

Predicate object.

Provides the operator :

Comparison_result operator()(Point_2 p, Point_2 q)

which returns SMALLER, EQUAL or LARGER according to the \( x\)-ordering of points p and q.

template<typename K >
typedef unspecified_type CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3< K >::Compare_y_2

Predicate object.

Provides the operator :

Comparison_result operator()(Point_2 p, Point_2 q)

which returns (SMALLER, EQUAL or LARGER) according to the \( y\)-ordering of points p and q.

template<typename K >
typedef unspecified_type CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3< K >::Compute_squared_distance_2

A construction object.

Provides the operator :

RT operator()(Line_2 l, Point_2 p); which returns the squared distance between the projection of p and the projection of l.

template<typename K >
typedef unspecified_type CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3< K >::Construct_line_2

A constructor object for Line_2.

Provides :

Line_2 operator()(Point_2 p,Point_2 q),

which constructs a line from two points.

template<typename K >
typedef unspecified_type CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3< K >::Construct_segment_2

A constructor object for Segment_2.

Provides :

Segment_2 operator()(Point_2 p,Point_2 q),

template<typename K >
typedef unspecified_type CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3< K >::Construct_triangle_2

A constructor object for Triangle_2.

Provides :

Triangle_2 operator()(Point_2 p,Point_2 q,Point_2 r ),

template<typename K >
typedef unspecified_type CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3< K >::Intersect_2

A construction object.

Provides the operator :

Object_2 operator()(Segment_2 s1, Segment_2 s2); which returns the intersection of the projection of s1 and the projection of s2 embedded in 3D. If the intersection is a segment, the z-coordinates of its extremities is 0. If the intersection is a point p, let p1 and p2 be the points on s1 and s2 respectively, such that their projections are p. The point returned is the middle of the segment p1p2.
