Function Documentation

◆ enum_cast()

template<typename T , typename U >
T CGAL::enum_cast ( const U &  u)

#include <CGAL/enum.h>

converts between the various enums provided by the CGAL kernel.

The conversion preserves the order of the values.

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