CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel > Class Template Reference

#include <CGAL/Arrangement_2.h>

Inherited by CGAL::Arrangement_with_history_2< Traits, Dcel >.

Definition

An object arr of the class Arrangement_2 represents the planar subdivision induced by a set of \( x\)-monotone curves and isolated points into maximally connected cells. The arrangement is represented as a doubly-connected edge-list (Dcel) such that each Dcel vertex is associated with a point of the plane and each edge is associated with an \( x\)-monotone curve whose interior is disjoint from all other edges and vertices. Recall that an arrangement edge is always comprised of a pair of twin Dcel halfedges.

The Arrangement_2 template has two parameters:

• The Traits template-parameter should be instantiated with a model of the ArrangementBasicTraits_2 concept. The traits class defines the types of \( x\)-monotone curves and two-dimensional points, namely ArrangementBasicTraits_2::X_monotone_curve_2 and ArrangementBasicTraits_2::Point_2, respectively, and supports basic geometric predicates on them.
• The Dcel template-parameter should be instantiated with a class that is a model of the ArrangementDcel concept. The value of this parameter is by default Arr_default_dcel<Traits>.

The available traits classes and Dcel classes are described below.

Types
typedef Arrangement_2< Traits_2, Dcel >	Self
	a private type used as an abbreviation of the Arrangement_2 type hereafter.
typedef Traits	Traits_2
	the traits class in use.
typedef Traits_2::Point_2	Point_2

typedef Dcel::Size	Size

The following handles, iterators, and circulators all have respective constant counterparts (for example, in addition to Vertex_iterator the type Vertex_const_iterator is also defined). See [9] for a discussion of constant versus mutable iterator types. The mutable types are assignable to their constant counterparts. Vertex_iterator, Halfedge_iterator, and Face_iterator are equivalent to the respective handle types (namely, Vertex_handle, Halfedge_handle, and Face_handle). Thus, wherever the handles appear in function parameter lists, the respective iterators can be passed as well. All handles are model of LessThanComparable and Hashable, that is they can be used as keys in containers such as std::map and boost::unordered_map.

Casting Away Constness
It is sometimes necessary to convert a constant (non-mutable) handle to a mutable handle. For example, the result of a point-location query is a non-mutable handle for the arrangement cell containing the query point. Assume that the query point lies on an edge, so we obtain a Halfedge_const_handle; if we wish to use this handle and remove the edge, we first need to cast away its "constness".

inserts the curve c into the arrangement, such that its left endpoint corresponds to a given arrangement vertex.

As a result, a new vertex that correspond to c's right endpoint is created and connected to v with a newly created halfedge pair. If c has an unbounded right end, the new vertex lies at infinity and the unbounded face that contains the interior of the curve is split.

Precondition

		Vertex_handle	v
	)

inserts the curve c into the arrangement, such that its right endpoint corresponds to a given arrangement vertex.

As a result, a new vertex that correspond to c's left endpoint is created and connected to v with a newly created halfedge pair. If c has an unbounded left end, the new vertex lies at infinity and the unbounded face that contains the interior of the curve is split. The function returns a handle for one of the new halfedges corresponding to the inserted curve, directed to the newly created vertex - that is, directed in lexicographic decreasing order (from right to left).

Precondition

The interior of c is disjoint from all existing arrangement vertices and edges.

v is associated with the right endpoint of c.

The left endpoint of c is not already associated with an existing arrangement vertex.

inserts an unbounded curve c into the arrangement, such that its right endpoint is bounded and corresponds to a given arrangement vertex.

This vertex is the target vertex of the halfedge pred, such that c is inserted to the circular list of halfedges around pred->target() right between pred and its successor. Similarly, fict_pred specifies the fictitious halfedge that should contain the vertex at infinity that corresponds to the unbounded left end of c. The function returns a handle for one of the new halfedges directed (lexicographically) from right to left.

Precondition

The interior of c is disjoint from all existing arrangement vertices and edges. c must have a bounded right endpoint and an unbounded left end.

pred->target() is associated with the right endpoint of c, and c should be inserted after pred in a clockwise order around this vertex.

fict_pred is a fictitious halfedge that contains the unbounded left end of c.

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Vertex_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::insert_in_face_interior	(	const Point_2 &	p,

p lies in the interior of the face f.

insert_in_face_interior() [2/3]

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Halfedge_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::insert_in_face_interior	(	const X_monotone_curve_2 &	c,
		Face_handle	f
	)

inserts the curve c that is entirely contained in the interior of a given face f.

If c is a bounded curve two new vertices that correspond to c's endpoints are created and connected with a newly created halfedge pair, which forms a new hole (inner component) in the face f. If c is unbounded, at least one of the two vertices that represents its end lies at infinity, and its creation modifies the outer boundary of f. The function returns a handle for one of the new halfedges corresponding to the inserted curve, directed in lexicographic increasing order (from left to right).

Precondition

c lies entirely in the interior of the face f and is disjoint from all existing arrangement vertices and edges (in particular, both its endpoints are not already associated with existing arrangement vertices).

In case c is an unbounded curve, f must be an unbounded face.

insert_in_face_interior() [3/3]

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Halfedge_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::insert_in_face_interior	(	const X_monotone_curve_2 &	c,
		Halfedge_handle	fict_pred1,
		Halfedge_handle	fict_pred2 = Halfedge_handle()
	)

inserts an unbounded curve c into the arrangement, such that c is entirely contained within a single unbounded face of the arrangement.

fict_pred1 specifies the fictitious halfedge that should contain the vertex at infinity that corresponds to the unbounded end of c. If both ends of c are unbounded, fict_pred1 indicated the place for its left end and fict_pred2 indicated a place for its right end. The function returns a handle for one of the new halfedges directed (lexicographically) from left to right.

fict_pred1 (and fict_pred2) are fictitious halfedges that contains the unbounded end(s) of c. If both halfedges are given they must be both incident to the same unbounded face.

is_valid()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

bool CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::is_valid

(

)

returns true if arr represents a valid instance of Arrangement_2.

In particular, the functions checks the topological structure of the arrangement and assures that it is valid. In addition, the function performs several simple geometric tests to ensure the validity of some of the geometric properties of the arrangement. Namely, it checks that all arrangement vertices are associated with distinct points, and that the halfedges around every vertex are ordered clockwise.

		const X_monotone_curve_2 &	c
	)

merges the edges represented by e1 and e2 into a single edge, associated with the given merged curve c.

Denote e1's end-vertices as \( u_1\) and \( v\), while e2's end-vertices are denoted \( u_2\) and \( v\). The function removes the common vertex \( v\) returns a handle for one of the merged halfedges, directed from \( u_1\) to \( u_2\).

Precondition

e1 and e2 share a common end-vertex, such that the two other end-vertices of the two edges are associated with c's endpoints.

modify_edge()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Halfedge_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::modify_edge	(	Halfedge_handle	e,
		const X_monotone_curve_2 &	c
	)

sets c to be the \( x\)-monotone curve associated with the edge e.

The function returns a handle for the modified edge (same as e).

Precondition

c is geometrically equivalent to the curve currently associated with e.

modify_vertex()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Vertex_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::modify_vertex	(	Vertex_handle	v,
		const Point_2 &	p
	)

sets p to be the point associated with the vertex v.

The function returns a handle for the modified vertex (same as v).

Precondition

v is not a vertex at infinity and p is geometrically equivalent to the point currently associated with v.

number_of_unbounded_faces()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Size CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::number_of_unbounded_faces

(

)

const

returns the number of unbounded faces in the arrangement.

Note arr.number_of_faces() also counts the unbounded faces of the arrangement.

number_of_vertices_at_infinity()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Size CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::number_of_vertices_at_infinity

(

)

const

returns the number of arrangement vertices that lie at infinity and are not associated with valid points.

Such vertices are not considered to be regular arrangement vertices and arr.number_of_vertices() does not count them.

remove_edge()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Face_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::remove_edge	(	Halfedge_handle	e,
		bool	remove_source = true,
		bool	remove_target = true
	)

removes the edge e from the arrangement.

Since the e may be the only edge incident to its source vertex (or its target vertex), this vertex can be removed as well. The flags remove_source and remove_target indicate whether the endpoints of e should be removed, or whether they should be left as isolated vertices in the arrangement. If the operation causes two faces to merge, the merged face is returned. Otherwise, the face to which the edge was incident is returned.

remove_isolated_vertex()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Face_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::remove_isolated_vertex

(

Vertex_handle

v

)

removes the isolated vertex v from the arrangement.

The function returns the face f that used to contain the isolated vertex.

Precondition

v is an isolated vertex (has no incident edges).

split_edge()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Halfedge_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::split_edge	(	Halfedge_handle	e,
		const X_monotone_curve_2 &	c1,
		const X_monotone_curve_2 &	c2
	)

splits the edge e into two edges (more precisely, into two halfedge pairs), associated with the given subcurves c1 and c2, and creates a vertex that corresponds to the split point.

The function returns a handle for the halfedge, whose source is the same as e->source() and whose target vertex is the split point.

Precondition

Either c1's left endpoint and c2's right endpoint correspond to e's end-vertices such that c1's right endpoint and c2's left endpoint are equal and define the split point - or vice-versa (with change of roles between c1 and c2).

unbounded_face()

template<typename Traits , typename Dcel >

Face_handle CGAL::Arrangement_2< Traits, Dcel >::unbounded_face

(

)

returns a handle for an unbounded face of the arrangement.

In case the arrangement comprises only bounded curves, there is a single unbounded face and the function returns a handle to it. Otherwise, a handle to an arbitrary unbounded face is returned.
