Function Documentation

◆ output_to_medit()

template<class C3T3 >
void CGAL::output_to_medit ( std::ostream &  os,
const C3T3 &  c3t3,
bool  rebind = false,
bool  show_patches = false 
)

#include <CGAL/IO/File_medit.h>

Outputs a mesh complex to the medit (.mesh) file format.

See [12] for a comprehensive description of this file format.

Parameters
osthe output stream
c3t3the mesh complex
rebindif set to true, labels of cells are rebinded into [1..nb_of_labels]
show_patchesif set to true, patches are labeled with different labels than cells. If set to false, each surface facet is written twice, using the label of each adjacent cell.
Examples:
Mesh_3/mesh_implicit_domains.cpp, and Mesh_3/mesh_implicit_domains_2.cpp.

◆ output_to_vtu()

template<class C3T3 >
void CGAL::output_to_vtu ( std::ostream &  os,
const C3T3 &  c3t3,
IO::Mode  mode = IO::BINARY 
)

#include <CGAL/IO/output_to_vtu.h>

writes a tetrahedron mesh using the UnstructuredGrid XML format.

Template Parameters
C3T3a model of MeshComplexWithFeatures_3InTriangulation_3.
Parameters
osthe stream used for writing.
c3t3the instance of C3T3 to be written.
modedecides if the data should be written in binary (IO::BINARY) or in ASCII (IO::ASCII).
Examples:
Mesh_3/mesh_polyhedral_domain_with_features.cpp.
