CGAL 5.5 - 2D Regularized Boolean Set-Operations

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
UsePolylinesdetermines 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.
