VectorField_2

Definition

The concept VectorField_2 describes the set of requirements to be fulfilled by any class used to instantiate the first template parameter of the class Stream_lines_2<VectorField_2,Integrator_2>. This concept provides the types of the geometric primitives used in the placement of streamlines and some functions for answering different queries.

Types

VectorField_2::Geom_traits
The traits class.

VectorField_2::FT
The scalar type.

VectorField_2::Point_2
The point type.

VectorField_2::Vector_2
The vector type.

Creation

VectorField_2 vfield;
Any constructor has to allow the user to fill the vector values (i.e. assign a vector to each position within the domain).

Query Functions

Geom_traits::Iso_rectangle_2 vfield.bbox () returns the bounding box of the whole domain.
std::pair<Vector_2,FT> vfield.get_field ( Point_2 p) returns the vector field value and the local density.
Precondition: is_in_domain(p) must be true.
bool vfield.is_in_domain ( Point_2 p) returns true if the point p is inside the domain boundaries, false otherwise.
FT vfield.get_integration_step ( Point_2 p)
returns the integration step at the point p (i.e. the distance between p and the next point in the polyline.).
Precondition: is_in_domain(p) must be true.
