◆ read_OFF() [1/2]

template<typename Graph , typename NamedParameters = CGAL::parameters::Default_named_parameters>
bool CGAL::IO::read_OFF ( std::istream &  is,
Graph &  g,
const NamedParameters &  np = parameters::default_values() 
)

#include <CGAL/boost/graph/IO/OFF.h>

reads the graph g from data in the input stream, using the Object File Format (OFF).

The data is expected to represent a 2-manifold (possibly with borders).

This function reads the point property as well as vertex normals (NOFF), vertex and face colors (COFF), and texture vertex coordinates (TOFF). Those properties are stored in property maps that are passed through named parameters (see below), when passed.

Ignores comment lines which start with a hash, and lines with whitespace.

Attention
The graph g is not cleared, and the data from the stream are appended.
Template Parameters
Grapha model of MutableFaceGraph
NamedParametersa sequence of Named Parameters
Parameters
isthe input stream
gthe graph to be built from the input data
npoptional Named Parameters described below
Optional Named Parameters
  • a property map associating points to the vertices of g
  • Type: a class model of WritablePropertyMap with boost::graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_descriptor as key type and Point_3 as value type
  • Default: boost::get(CGAL::vertex_point, g)
  • Extra: If this parameter is omitted, an internal property map for CGAL::vertex_point_t must be available in Graph.

  • a property map associating normals to the vertices of g
  • Type: a class model of WritablePropertyMap with boost::graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_descriptor as key type and Vector_3 as value type

  • Type: a class model of WritablePropertyMap with boost::graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_descriptor as key type and CGAL::IO::Color as value type
  • Default: vertex colors that may exist in the input will be ignored

  • Type: a class model of WritablePropertyMap with boost::graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_descriptor as key type and Point_2 as value type

  • Type: Boolean
  • Default: false
Returns
true if reading was successful and the resulting mesh is valid, false otherwise.

◆ read_OFF() [2/2]

template<typename Graph , typename NamedParameters = CGAL::parameters::Default_named_parameters>
bool CGAL::IO::read_OFF ( const std::string &  fname,
Graph &  g,
const NamedParameters &  np = parameters::default_values() 
)

#include <CGAL/boost/graph/IO/OFF.h>

reads the graph g from the file fname, using the Object File Format (OFF).

The data is expected to represent a 2-manifold (possibly with borders).

This function reads the point property as well as vertex normals (NOFF), vertex and face colors (COFF), and texture vertex coordinates (TOFF). Those properties are stored in property maps that are passed through named parameters (see below), when passed.
