There are several overloaded function templates called difference() that compute the difference between two polygons and insert the resulting polygons with holes into a container via an output iterator.

A function template in this group has one of the two following signatures:

1.1.	`OutputIterator difference(const Type1& pgn1, const Type2& pgn2, OutputIterator oi, UsePolylines = Tag_true());`
1.2.	`OutputIterator difference(const Type1& pgn1, const Type2& pgn2, OutputIterator oi);`
2.	`OutputIterator difference(const Type1& pgn1, const Type2& pgn2, OutputIterator oi, const GpsTraits& traits);`

Template Parameters

UsePolylines determines whether the boundaries of the input polygons are treated as cyclic sequences of single ( \(x\)-monotone) segments or as cyclic sequences of ( \(x\)-monotone) polylines. If substituted with CGAL::Tag_true, which is the default, the input polygons are converted to general polygons bounded by polylines before the operation is actually performed. Then, the resulting general polygons with holes are converted back to standard polygons. If substituted with CGAL::Tag_false, the input polygons are used as is. Refer to Traits Selection for more information.

The types Type1 and Type2 of the parameters must be convertible to the types specified in a row in the table below, respectively. The 3rd column specifies the corresponding dereference type of the output iterator.
The types that apply to signature (1.1.) above are restricted to those listed in rows 1–4 in the table below.
The types that apply to signature (1.2.) above are restricted to those listed in rows 5–8 in the table below.

	`Type1`	`Type2`	Dereference Type of `oi`
1	`Polygon_2`	`Polygon_2`	`Polygon_with_holes_2`
2	`Polygon_2`	`Polygon_with_holes_2`	`Polygon_with_holes_2`
3	`Polygon_with_holes_2`	`Polygon_2`	`Polygon_with_holes_2`
4	`Polygon_with_holes_2`	`Polygon_with_holes_2`	`Polygon_with_holes_2`
5	`General_polygon_2`	`General_polygon_2`	`General_polygon_with_holes_2`
6	`General_polygon_2`	`General_polygon_with_holes_2`	`General_polygon_with_holes_2`
7	`General_polygon_with_holes_2`	`General_polygon_2`	`General_polygon_with_holes_2`
8	`General_polygon_with_holes_2`	`General_polygon_with_holes_2`	`General_polygon_with_holes_2`

Parameters

pgn1,pgn2	the input polygons.
oi	the output iterator for the result.
traits	an optional traits object.
