IMPORTANT THINGS
- We need to add Compute_squared_distance_3 (at least for Point_3, Point_3) to the traits requirements
- Since we use the (decorated) Traits as a template parameter for the Search_traits_3, we need to add
this as a requirement. Currently, the Search_traits_3 requests that the template parameter be a CGAL
kernel. This is much too strong!
and it does not cost much in terms of implementation, and it is useful for cases like the
Polyhedron, I put it back.
The code already supports that (as can be seen from the fact that the test suite runs).
Still, I need the Id to have a default constructor. How do you document that?
the KD-tree uses decorated points to return the Id too.
There are just a few boost::optional to add in the traits, where we still
use the old bool intersection(..., Result&) approach, and some modernization
to do in the distance computation things.
Everything compiles.
I have removed the funtion closest_primitive from the code and documentation,
since it would not be consistent with the rest of the interface, and would not
be faster than closest_point_and_primitive.
I think we are almost done, not only for the documentation, but for the code too.
I've removed all references to the Sphere (it was used only internally anyway),
because we will not use it anymore: we replace its use by direct calls to is_closer.
the fact that the iterator range is a container of objects of type Datum.
Quite the contrary: it can be halfedges_begin/end. Hence, we should keep
only the requirement that Primitive is constructible from it (that's
really what we use in practice).
Proof of concept of the new API with property maps.
* Fixed compilation error with g++ 4.3.1
* Updated mst_orient_normals() documentation
* Added property_map_multiple_streams.cpp to dont_submit
TODO: delete property_map_multiple_streams.cpp
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.
