Diffs are:
* #undef added
* in old files, (void)0 is replaced by static_cast<void>(0)
* in old files, lines as "# define CGAL_xxx_assertion 1" are added
* in point_set_processing_assertions.h, surface_mesh_parameterization_assertions.h, surface_reconstruction_points_assertions.h, "|| defined(CGAL_NDEBUG)" is replaced by "|| defined (NDEBUG)"
* protective macros (if any) are removed
* included files if any (<CGAL/assertions.h>, <CGAL/trace.h>) are removed
* Poisson_reconstruction_function::compute_implicit_function() gets a new parameter = the solver to use (TAUCS by default).
* It uses SparseLinearAlgebraTraits_d traits classes and not Taucs_solver anymore.
* poisson_reconstruction example accepts a new parameter -solver = taucs or mkl.
* To reproduce the bug:
> poisson_reconstruction data/sphere926.pwn sphere926-poisson.off
(try several times)
* The fix is:
- implement Robust_circumcenter_filtered_traits_3::compute_squared_radius_3_object()
- compare denominator with 1E-13 (instead of 1E-14) to switch to exact arithmetic
* On Linux/g++, the bug could be reproduced by:
> poisson_reconstruction data/sphere926.pwn sphere926-poisson.off
* The fix was do use Min_sphere_of_spheres_d instead of Min_sphere_d
* Rename obsolete Mesh_3 files to avoid conflicts with new Mesh_3 implementation.
* TODO:
Modify Poisson_refine_triangulation.h to use new Mesh_3 implementation.
Document property maps and move them to Support Lib:
* Added new chapter "CGAL abd Boost Property Maps" (Property_map) to Support Lib:
- it is located in Point_set_processing_3/doc_tex/Property_map.
- it documents Dereference_property_map, First_of_pair_property_map, Second_of_pair_property_map and Nth_of_tuple_property_map.
* Renamed point_set_property_map.h as property_map.h
* Moved Normal_vector_property_map to Point_with_normal_3.h and renamed it Normal_of_point_with_normal_pmap.
Changes requested by AF on 06/12/2009:
* Point_set_processing_3:
- Fixed description of grid_simplify_point_set()
- Fixed description of read_xyz_points(), write_xyz_points(), read_off_points(), write_off_points()
- Added grid_simplify_example.cpp. It replaces random_simplify_example.cpp in Point_set_processing_3 User Manual.
* Surface_reconstruction_points_3:
- Small fixes in the User Manual.
* Improvements in C++ code:
- erase_small_connected_components() is renamed keep_largest_connected_components() and takes as new parameter the number of large components to keep.
- get_polyhedron_connected_components() writes the list of components found in an output iterator.
* Improvements in the User Manuals:
- Removed page number in links.
- New images for grid simplification and normal orientation (hopefully clearer).
- Added citation of OFF file format.
* Improvements in the Reference Manuals:
- Removed output_surface_facets_to_triangle_soup() (obsolete).
- Removed get_polyhedron_connected_components() from documentation.
- Set manually the classes/structs/concepts marging to get a pretty alignment of types, constructors and methods.
* Automatic documentation improvements by generate_reference_manual 1.3:
- Reduced left margin of free functions description.
- Fixed bug: fixed vertical alignment in methods/functions description.
- Fixed bug: does not remove anymore EOLs in methods/functions description.
- Fixed bug #7515: removed "[protected]", "[static]" and "[virtual]" comments.
* The code matches the documentation and uses the new API with property maps:
- The code uses the new API with property maps.
- The test suites work.
- The MFC and Qt demos work.
- Copied Pierre's comments in Reference Manual to C++ comments.
* Renaming:
- merge_simplify_point_set -> grid_simplify_point_set.
- read_xyz_point_set split() as read_xyz_points() + read_xyz_points_and_normals().
* Gyroviz stuff:
- merge_simplify_nearest_point_set renamed as grid_simplify_nearest_point_set and moved to Poisson demo (as it is limited to Gyroviz_point_3 points).
- The code in Point_set_processing_3 uses the new API with property maps.
* extend the documentation
* update the APSS demo plugin to use property map
* change the k parameter to a more generic "smoothness" value
* add an optional RadiusPMap in the ctor
* minor changes in APSS's internal mechanism
Proof of concept of the new API with property maps.
* Proof of concept:
- mst_orient_normals() is implemented using the new API with property maps. It returns an iterator over the first non oriented normal.
- Same thing for radial_orient_normals() [private API].
- the test suite works fine.
- removed Orientable_normal_3 class.
* point_set_property_map.h contains all property map classes of Point_set_processing_3:
- Former property maps in property_map.h are modified to take an iterator as key instead of a value type. This is more general (works if key = int), safer (no bug if key passed by value) and coherent with Boost Graph Library.
- identity_property_map and Point_set_vertex_point_const_map are merged as Dereference_property_map.
- Point_set_vertex_normal_map is moved from Point_set_3.h and renamed Normal_vector_property_map.
- Random_access_container_index_pmap is moved from Random_access_container_index_pmap.h and renamed Index_property_map.
- added free functions make_*() to create these property maps.
- removed get() functions to create these property maps.
* Demos:
- fixed Poisson MFC demo.
Gyroviz code is limited to containers of Gyroviz_point_3 (no property maps):
- removed class class Point_set_vertex_cameras_const_map.
- changed implementation of orient_normal_wrt_cameras().
TODO:
- update documentation.
- change API of all other functions of these packages to use property maps.
Simplified the API:
- removed OrientableNormal_3, PointWithOrientableNormal_3, ReconstructionTriangulation_3, ReconstructionVertexBase_3 concepts.
- classes Orientable_normal_3, Reconstruction_triangulation_3 abd Reconstruction_vertex_base_3 are not documented anymore.
- For free functions provided with 2 variants mutable/non mutable, removed the non mutable one.
TODO:
- remove Orientable_normal_3 class.
- modify mst_orient_normals() to return an iterator over the first non oriented normal.
- fix Poisson MFC demo which does not compile anymore.
- delaunay_refinement(), solve_Poisson.rc(), set_contouring_value() and median_value_at_input_vertices() are declared private.
- Poisson MFC demo calls compute_implicit_function() instead of these methods.
