CGAL 5.5.2 - 2D Polygon Partitioning
PartitionIsValidTraits_2 Concept Reference

Definition

Requirements of a traits class that is used by CGAL::partition_is_valid_2(), CGAL::convex_partition_is_valid_2(), and CGAL::y_monotone_partition_is_valid_2() for testing if a given set of polygons are nonoverlapping and if their union is a polygon that is the same as a polygon represented by a given sequence of points. Note that the traits class for CGAL::partition_is_valid_2() may have to satisfy additional requirements if each partition polygon is to be tested for having a particular property; see, for example, the descriptions of the function CGAL::is_convex_2() and the concept YMonotonePartitionTraits_2 for the additional requirements for testing for convexity and \( y\)-monotonicity, respectively.

typedef unspecified_type Orientation_2
 Predicate object type that provides CGAL::Orientation operator()(Point_2 p, Point_2 q, Point_2 r) that returns CGAL::LEFT_TURN, if \( r\) lies to the left of the oriented line \( l\) defined by \( p\) and \( q\), returns CGAL::RIGHT_TURN if \( r\) lies to the right of \( l\), and returns CGAL::COLLINEAR if \( r\) lies on \( l\).

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ Less_xy_2

Predicate object type that compares Point_2s lexicographically.

Must provide bool operator()(Point_2 p, Point_2 q) where true is returned iff \( p <_{xy} q\). We have \( p<_{xy}q\), iff \( p_x < q_x\) or \( p_x = q_x\) and \( p_y < q_y\), where \( p_x\) and \( p_y\) denote the \( x\) and \( y\) coordinates of point \( p\), respectively.

◆ Polygon_2

The polygon type created by the partitioning function.

This type should provide a nested type Vertex_const_iterator that is the type of the non-mutable iterator over the polygon vertices.
