		typename boost::graph_traits< PolygonMesh >::halfedge_descriptor	border_halfedge,
		FaceOutputIterator	face_out,
		VertexOutputIterator	vertex_out,
		const NamedParameters &	np
	)

#include <CGAL/Polygon_mesh_processing/triangulate_hole.h>

triangulates and refines a hole in a polygon mesh.

Template Parameters

PolygonMesh	must be model of MutableFaceGraph
FacetOutputIterator	model of OutputIterator holding boost::graph_traits<PolygonMesh>::face_descriptor for patch faces.
VertexOutputIterator	model of OutputIterator holding boost::graph_traits<PolygonMesh>::vertex_descriptor for patch vertices.
NamedParameters	a sequence of Named Parameters

Optional Named Parameters

vertex_point_map a property map associating points to the vertices of pmesh Type: a class model of ReadWritePropertyMap with boost::graph_traits<PolygonMesh>::vertex_descriptor as key type and Point_3 as value type Default: boost::get(CGAL::vertex_point, pmesh) Extra: If this parameter is omitted, an internal property map for CGAL::vertex_point_t must be available in PolygonMesh.
geom_traits an instance of a geometric traits class Type: a class model of Kernel Default: a CGAL Kernel deduced from the point type, using CGAL::Kernel_traits Extra: The geometric traits class must be compatible with the vertex point type.

triangulate_hole()

template<typename PolygonMesh , typename OutputIterator , typename NamedParameters >

OutputIterator CGAL::Polygon_mesh_processing::triangulate_hole	(	PolygonMesh &	pmesh,
		typename boost::graph_traits< PolygonMesh >::halfedge_descriptor	border_halfedge,
		OutputIterator	out,
		const NamedParameters &	np
	)

#include <CGAL/Polygon_mesh_processing/triangulate_hole.h>

triangulates a hole in a polygon mesh.

The hole must not contain any non-manifold vertex, nor self-intersections. The patch generated does not introduce non-manifold edges nor degenerate triangles. If a hole cannot be triangulated, pmesh is not modified and nothing is recorded in out.

Template Parameters

PolygonMesh	a model of MutableFaceGraph
OutputIterator	a model of OutputIterator holding boost::graph_traits<PolygonMesh>::face_descriptor for patch faces.
NamedParameters	a sequence of Named Parameters

Parameters

pmesh	polygon mesh containing the hole
border_halfedge	a border halfedge incident to the hole
out	iterator over patch faces
np	an optional sequence of Named Parameters among the ones listed below

Optional Named Parameters

vertex_point_map a property map associating points to the vertices of pmesh Type: a class model of ReadWritePropertyMap with boost::graph_traits<PolygonMesh>::vertex_descriptor as key type and Point_3 as value type Default: boost::get(CGAL::vertex_point, pmesh) Extra: If this parameter is omitted, an internal property map for CGAL::vertex_point_t must be available in PolygonMesh.
geom_traits an instance of a geometric traits class Type: a class model of Kernel Default: a CGAL Kernel deduced from the point type, using CGAL::Kernel_traits Extra: The geometric traits class must be compatible with the vertex point type.
use_delaunay_triangulation If true, use the Delaunay triangulation facet search space. Type: Boolean Default: true Extra: If no valid triangulation can be found in this search space, the algorithm falls back to the non-Delaunay triangulations search space to find a solution.

Returns

triangulate_hole_polyline() [1/2]

template<typename PointRange1 , typename PointRange2 , typename OutputIterator , typename NamedParameters >

OutputIterator CGAL::Polygon_mesh_processing::triangulate_hole_polyline	(	const PointRange1 &	points,
		const PointRange2 &	third_points,
		OutputIterator	out,
		const NamedParameters &	np
	)

#include <CGAL/Polygon_mesh_processing/triangulate_hole.h>

creates triangles to fill the hole defined by points in the range points.

Triangles are recorded into out using the indices of the input points in the range points. Note that no degenerate triangles will be produced. If no triangulation can be found, then nothing is recorded in out.

If faces incident to the polyline outside the hole are known, it is recommended to use this function. The point range third_points indicates for each pair of consecutive points in the range points, the third point of the face this segment is incident to. It influences the choice of the best triangulation while avoiding overfolding.

Note that the ranges points and third_points may or may not contain duplicated first point at the end of sequence.

Precondition

third_points.size() == points.size()

Template Parameters

PointRange	range of points, model of Range. Its iterator type is InputIterator.
OutputIterator	model of OutputIterator, to collect patch faces. A specialization for CGAL::value_type_traits<OutputIterator> must be available, and the corresponding value type type must have a constructor type(int p0, int p1, int p2) available. The indices correspond to the ones of input points in points.
NamedParameters	a sequence of Named Parameters

Parameters

points	the range of input points
third_points	the range of third points
out	iterator over output patch triangles, described by indices of points in points
np	an optional sequence of Named Parameters among the ones listed below

Optional Named Parameters

geom_traits an instance of a geometric traits class Type: a class model of Kernel Default: a CGAL Kernel deduced from the point type, using CGAL::Kernel_traits Extra: The geometric traits class must be compatible with the vertex point type.
use_delaunay_triangulation If true, use the Delaunay triangulation facet search space. Type: Boolean Default: true Extra: If no valid triangulation can be found in this search space, the algorithm falls back to the non-Delaunay triangulations search space to find a solution.

Same as above but the range of third points is omitted.

They are not taken into account in the cost computation that leads the hole filling.
