Function Documentation

template<typename T , typename U >

T CGAL::enum_cast

(

const U &

u)

converts between the various enums provided by the CGAL kernel.

The conversion preserves the order of the values.

const Origin CGAL::ORIGIN

A symbolic constant which denotes the point at the origin.

This constant is used in the conversion between points and vectors.

Example

Point_2< Cartesian<Exact_NT> >  p(1.0, 1.0), q;
Vector2< Cartesian<Exact_NT> >  v;
v = p - ORIGIN;
q = ORIGIN + v;  
assert( p == q );
