CGAL 5.5.1 - CGAL and the Boost Graph Library
|
We extend the Boost Graph Library (BGL for short) with a set of new concepts.
In order to make this documentation self-contained we here also document concepts that are defined in the original version of the BGL. The documentation of the concepts lists at the same time the functions related to it. Models of the concept and their related functions must be in the same namespace (they will be found by Koenig lookup).

concept | HalfedgeGraph |
The concept HalfedgeGraph is a refinement of the BGL concept IncidenceGraph and adds the notion of a halfedge: Each edge is associated with two opposite halfedges with source and target vertices swapped. Furthermore, halfedges have a successor and predecessor, and form cycles we call faces. However, this concept does not introduce a face type. A HalfedgeGraph is undirected and does not allow parallel edges. More... | |
