CGAL 5.6 - 3D Boolean Operations on Nef Polyhedra
CGAL::Nef_polyhedron_3< Nef_polyhedronTraits_3, Nef_polyhedronItems_3 >::SHalfloop Class Reference

#include <CGAL/Nef_polyhedron_3.h>

Definition

template<class Nef_polyhedronTraits_3, class Nef_polyhedronItems_3 = CGAL::Default_items<Nef_polyhedronTraits_3> class Nef_polyhedronMarks = bool>
class CGAL::Nef_polyhedron_3< Nef_polyhedronTraits_3, Nef_polyhedronItems_3 >::SHalfloop

A shalfloop is a great circle on a sphere map.

Figure figureNef3HalfloopIncidences depicts the relationship between a shalfloop and its incident shalfloops, and sfaces on a sphere map. A shalfloop is an oriented sloop. It is always paired with a shalfloop whose supporting Sphere_circle is pointing in the opposite direction. The twin() member function returns this shalfloop of opposite orientation.

A sphere map having a shalfloop models the neighborhood of a vertex which is isolated on a facet. That facet is returned by the member function facet.

Creation

There is no need for a user to create a SHalfloop explicitly. The class Nef_polyhedron_3<Traits> manages the needed shalfloops internally.
