CGAL 5.0 - 3D Triangulation Data Structure
TriangulationDSCellBase_3 Concept Reference

Definition

At the base level (see the Software Design sections of the Chapters Triangulation and Triangulation Datastructure), a cell stores handles to its four vertices and to its four neighbor cells. The vertices and neighbors are indexed 0, 1, 2 and 3. Neighbor i lies opposite to vertex i.

Since the Triangulation data structure is the class which defines the handle types, the cell base class has to be somehow parameterized by the Triangulation data structure. But since it is itself parameterized by the cell and vertex base classes, there is a cycle in the definition of these classes. In order to break the cycle, the base classes for vertex and cell which are given as arguments for the Triangulation data structure use void as Triangulation data structure parameter, and the Triangulation data structure then uses a rebind-like mechanism (similar to the one specified in std::allocator) in order to put itself as parameter to the vertex and cell classes. The rebound base classes so obtained are the classes which are used as base classes for the final vertex and cell classes. More information can be found in Section Software Design.

Members for Compact_container

Advanced

These member functions are required by CGAL::Triangulation_data_structure_3 because it uses CGAL::Compact_container to store its cells.

See the documentation of CGAL::Compact_container for the exact requirements.

void * for_compact_container () const
 
void *& for_compact_container ()
 

Internal

Advanced

These functions are used internally by the triangulation data structure.

The user is not encouraged to use them directly as they may change in the future.

TDS_datatds_data ()
 
const TDS_datatds_data () const
 

I/O

istream & operator>> (istream &is, TriangulationDSCellBase_3 &c)
 Inputs the possible non combinatorial information given by the cell.
 
ostream & operator<< (ostream &os, const TriangulationDSCellBase_3 &c)
 Outputs the possible non combinatorial information given by the cell.
 

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ Rebind_TDS

template<typename TDS2 >
using TriangulationDSCellBase_3::Rebind_TDS = unspecified_type

This template class has to define a type Rebind_TDS<TDS2>::Other which is the rebound cell, that is, the one whose Triangulation_data_structure will be the actually used one.

Rebind_TDS<TDS2>::Other will be the real base class of Triangulation_data_structure_3::Cell.

Note
It can be implemented using a nested template class.

TriangulationDSCellBase_3::Cell_base ( Vertex_handle  v0,
Vertex_handle  v1,
Vertex_handle  v2,
Vertex_handle  v3

Initializes the vertices with v0, v1, v2, v3.

Neighbors are initialized to the default constructed handle.

int TriangulationDSCellBase_3::index ( Vertex_handle  v) const

Returns the index of v.

Precondition
v is a vertex of c
