Definition

template<typename TriangulationTraits_, typename TriangulationDataStructure_>
class CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >

This class implements triangulations of point sets in dimension \( d \). The triangulation covers the convex hull of the input points (the embedded vertices of the triangulation).

To store this triangulation in a triangulation data structure, we turn the set of its faces into a topological sphere by adding a fictitious vertex, called the infinite vertex, as well as infinite simplices incident to boundary faces of the convex hull. Each infinite \( i\)-simplex is incident to the infinite vertex and to an \( (i-1)\)-simplex of the convex hull boundary.

Template Parameters

TriangulationTraits_	is the geometric traits class that provides the geometric types and predicates needed by triangulations. `TriangulationTraits_` must be a model of the concept `TriangulationTraits`.
TriangulationDataStructure_	must be a model of the concept `TriangulationDataStructure`. This model is used to store the faces of the triangulation. The parameter `TriangulationDataStructure_` defaults to `Triangulation_data_structure` whose template parameters are instantiated as follows: `TriangulationTraits_::Dimension` `Triangulation_vertex<TriangulationTraits_>` `Triangulation_full_cell<TriangulationTraits_>`.

The triangulation deduces its maximal dimension from the type TriangulationTraits_::Dimension. This dimension has to match the dimension returned by TriangulationDataStructure_::maximal_dimension().

Input/Output

The information in the iostream is: the current dimension, the number of finite vertices, the non-combinatorial information about vertices (point, etc.), the number of full cells, the indices of the vertices of each full cell, plus the non-combinatorial information about each full cell, then the indices of the neighbors of each full cell, where the index corresponds to the preceding list of full cells.

Handles and Iterators
The vertices and full cells of triangulations are accessed through handles and iterators. A handle is a model of the `Handle` concept, and supports the two dereference operators: `operator*` and `operator->`. Iterators are bidirectional and non-mutable. They are convertible to the corresponding handles, thus the user can pass them directly as arguments to the functions. All handles are model of `LessThanComparable` and `Hashable`, that is they can be used as keys in containers such as `std::map` and `boost::unordered_map`.

		OutputIterator	out
	)

Removes the full cells in the range \( C=\)[s, e), inserts a vertex at position p and fills the hole by connecting each face of the boundary to p.

A Vertex_handle to the new Vertex is returned. The facet ft must lie on the boundary of \( C\) and its defining full cell, tr.full_cell(ft) must lie inside \( C\). Handles to the newly created full cells are output in the out output iterator.

◆ is_infinite() [4/4]

template<typename TriangulationTraits_ , typename TriangulationDataStructure_ >

◆ is_valid()

template<typename TriangulationTraits_ , typename TriangulationDataStructure_ >

bool CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >::is_valid ( bool verbose = false ) const

This is a function for debugging purpose.

Debugging Support

Partially checks whether tr is a triangulation. This function returns true if the combinatorial triangulation data structure's is_valid() test returns true and if some geometric tests are passed with success. It is checked that the orientation of each finite full cell is positive and that the orientation of each infinite full cell is consistent with their finite adjacent full cells. The verbose parameter is not used.

◆ locate() [1/4]

template<typename TriangulationTraits_ , typename TriangulationDataStructure_ >

Full_cell_handle CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >::locate	(	const Point &	query,
		Full_cell_const_handle	hint = `Full_cell_handle()`
	)		const

The optional argument hint is used as a starting place for the search.

If the query point lies outside the affine hull of the points (which can happen when tr.current_dimension() < tr.maximal_dimension()) or if there is no finite vertex yet in the triangulation, then locate returns a default constructed Full_cell_handle().

If the point query lies in the interior of a bounded (finite) full cell of tr, the latter full cell is returned.

If query lies on the boundary of some finite full cells, one of the cells is returned.

Let \( d=\)tr.current_dimension(). If the point query lies outside the convex hull of the points, an infinite full cell with vertices \( \{ p_1, p_2, \ldots, p_d, \infty\}\) is returned such that the full cell \( (p_1, p_2, \ldots, p_d, query)\) is positively oriented (the rest of the triangulation lies on the other side of facet \( (p_1, p_2, \ldots, p_d)\)).

◆ locate() [2/4]

template<typename TriangulationTraits_ , typename TriangulationDataStructure_ >

Full_cell_handle CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >::locate	(	const Point &	query,
		Locate_type &	loc_type,
		Face &	f,
		Facet &	ft,
		Full_cell_handle	hint = `Full_cell_handle()`
	)		const

The optional argument hint is used as a starting place for the search.

If the query point lies outside the affine hull of the points (which can happen when tr.current_dimension() < tr.maximal_dimension()) or if there is no finite vertex yet in the triangulation, then loc_type is set to OUTSIDE_AFFINE_HULL, and locate returns Full_cell_handle(). If the query point lies inside the affine hull of the points, the function finds the \( k\)-face that contains query in its relative interior (if the \( k\)-face is finite, it is unique) and the result is returned as follows:

\( k=0\): loc_type is set to ON_VERTEX, f is set to the vertex v the query lies on and a full cell having v as a vertex is returned.
\( 0<k<\)c.current_dimension()-1: loc_type is set to IN_FACE, f is set to the unique finite face containing the query point. A full cell having f on its boundary is returned.
\( k=\)c.current_dimension()-1: loc_type is set to IN_FACET, ft is set to one of the two representation of the finite facet containing the query point. The full cell of ft is returned.
\( k=\)c.current_dimension(): If the query point lies outside the convex hull of the points in the triangulation, then loc_type is set to OUTSIDE_CONVEX_HULL and a full cell is returned as in the locate method above. If the query point lies inside the convex hull of the points in the triangulation, then loc_type is set to IN_FULL_CELL and the unique full cell containing the query point is returned.

◆ locate() [3/4]

template<typename TriangulationTraits_ , typename TriangulationDataStructure_ >

Full_cell_handle CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >::locate	(	const Point &	query,
		Locate_type &	loc_type,
		Face &	f,
		Vertex_handle	hint
	)		const

Same as above but hint, the starting place for the search, is a vertex.

The parameter hint is ignored if it is a default constructed Vertex_handle().

◆ locate() [4/4]

template<typename TriangulationTraits_ , typename TriangulationDataStructure_ >

Full_cell_handle CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >::locate	(	const Point &	query,
		Vertex_handle	hint

Same as above but hint is a vertex and not a full cell.

size_type CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >::number_of_vertices ( ) const

Returns the number of finite vertices in the triangulation.

◆ operator<<()

template<typename TriangulationTraits_ , typename TriangulationDataStructure_ >

std::ostream& CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >::operator<<	(	std::ostream &	os,
		const Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ > &	t
	)

◆ operator>>()

template<typename TriangulationTraits_ , typename TriangulationDataStructure_ >

std::istream& CGAL::Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ >::operator>>	(	std::istream &	is,
		Triangulation< TriangulationTraits_, TriangulationDataStructure_ > &	t
	)

Reads the underlying combinatorial triangulation from is by calling the corresponding input operator of the triangulation data structure class (note that the infinite vertex is numbered 0), and the non-combinatorial information by calling the corresponding input operators of the vertex and the full cell classes (such as point coordinates), which are provided by overloading the stream operators of the vertex and full cell types.

Assigns the resulting triangulation to t.
