#include <CGAL/Surface_mesh/Surface_mesh.h>

Definition

This class is a data structure that can be used as halfedge data structure or polyhedral surface.

It is an alternative to the classes HalfedgeDS and Polyhedron_3 defined in the packages Halfedge Data Structures and 3D Polyhedral Surface. The main difference is that it is indexed based and not pointer based, and that the mechanism for adding information to vertices, halfedges, edges, and faces is much simpler and done at runtime and not at compile time. When elements are removed, they are only marked as removed, and a garbage collection function must be called to really remove them.

Template Parameters

P	The type of the point property of a vertex. There is no requirement on `P`, besides being default constructible and assignable. In typical use cases it will be a 2D or 3D point type.

Is Model Of:: MutableFaceGraph and FaceListGraph

Garbage Collection
While removing elements only marks them as removed garbage collection really removes them. The API in this section allows to check whether an element is removed, to get the number of removed elements, and to collect garbage. The number of elements together with the number of removed elements is an upperbound on the index, and is needed by algorithms that temporarily store a property in a vector of the appropriate size. Note however that by garbage collecting elements get new indices. In case you store indices in an auxiliary data structure or in a property these indices are potentially no longer referring to the right elements. When adding elements, by default elements that are marked as removed are recycled.

Borders
A halfedge, or edge is on the border of a surface mesh if it is incident to a `null_face()`. A vertex is on a border if it is isolated or incident to a border halfedge. While for a halfedge and edge this is a constant time operation, for a vertex it means to look at all incident halfedges. If algorithms operating on a surface mesh maintain that the halfedge associated to a border vertex is a border halfedge, this is a constant time operation too. This section provides functions to check if an element is on a border and to change the halfedge associated to a border vertex.

removes all vertices, halfedge, edges and faces.

Collects garbage and removes all property maps added by a call to add_property_map() for all simplex types.

After calling this method, the object is the same as a newly constructed object. The additional property maps are also removed and must thus be re-added if needed.

◆ collect_garbage()

really removes vertices, halfedges, edges, and faces which are marked removed.

See also: has_garbage()

Advanced

With the default value for check_all_incident_halfedges the function iteratates over the incident halfedges. With check_all_incident_halfedges == false the function returns true, if the incident halfedge associated to vertex v is a border halfedge, or if the vertex is isolated.

Attention: If the data contained in the Surface_mesh is not a 2-manifold, then this operation is not guaranteed to return the right result.
