Cartesian_converter<K1, K2, NTConverter>converts objects from the kernel traits K1 to the kernel traits K2 using Converter to do the conversion. Those traits must be of the form Cartesian<FT1> and Cartesian<FT2> (or the equivalent with Simple_cartesian). It then provides the following operators to convert objects from K1 to K2.
The third template parameter NTConverter is a function object that must provide K2::FT operator()(K1::FT n) that converts n to an K2::FT which has the same value.
The default value of this parameter is CGAL::NT_converter<K1::FT, K2::FT>.
#include <CGAL/Cartesian_converter.h>
| Cartesian_converter<K1, K2, NTConverter> conv; | |
|
Default constructor.
| |
| K2::Point_2 | conv.operator() ( K1::Point_2 p) | |
| returns a K2::Point_2 which coordinates are those of p, converted by NTConverter. | ||
Similar operators are defined for the other kernel traits types Point_3, Vector_2...
In the following example, we compute exactly the intersection point between a line and a triangle, and we then create a double approximation of this point.
