Kinetic::CertificateGenerator

Definition

This functor allows you to create certificate objects of some type. The models of this ``concept'' take some set of arguments which depend on the certificate being computed (for example three points for a two dimensional orientation) followed by either one or two instances of the Kinetic::Simulator::Time concept. The functions either return a Certificate or the corresponding value at the current time (if only a time value rather than an interval is passed).

Operations

Certificate	a ( Args , Time begin , Time end )	Return a Certifate object for the corresponding certificate.
CGAL::Sign	a ( Args , Time t )	Compute the sign of the function at $$lim$$ 0 t+. This can be used to evaluate predicates at the current moment.

Has Models

All over the place.

Example

Here you see how to use both functions on an orientation predicate.

KineticKernel::Point_2 a,b,c;
Simulator::Handle sh;
KineticKernek kk;

KineticKernel::Orientation_2 o2= kk.orientation_2_object();

KineticKernel::Certificate c= o2(a,b,c, sh->current_time(), sh->end_time());
if (c.will_fail()) {
  std::cout << "Certificate will fail" << std::endl;
}
// Compute the sign immediately following the current time
CGAL::Sign sn= o2(a,c,b, sh->current_time());
CGAL_postcondition(sn==CGAL::NEGATIVE);
