\begin{ccRefClass}{Distance_for_point_adapter<Key,PointPropertyMap,Base_distance>}

\ccDefinition
  
A class that uses a point property map to adapt a distance class to work on a 
key as point type.
When using \ccc{Search_traits_adapter<Key,PointPropertyMap,BaseTraits>}
in a nearest neighbor search algorithm, this class must be used as distance.


\ccInclude{CGAL/Search_traits_adapter.h}

\ccParameters
\ccc{Key} is a type that is associated to a point of type \ccc{Base_distance::Point_d}.\\
\ccc{PointPropertyMap} is a model of \ccAnchor{http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/property_map/doc/ReadablePropertyMap.html}{boost::ReadablePropertyMap}
with \ccc{Key} as \ccc{key_type} and \ccc{Base_distance::Point_d} as \ccc{value_type}.\\
\ccc{Base_distance} is a model of either \ccc{GeneralDistance} or \ccc{OrthogonalDistance}.

\ccInheritsFrom
\ccc{Base_distance}

\ccIsModel

\ccc{GeneralDistance} if \ccc{Base_distance} is a model of \ccc{GeneralDistance}.\\
\ccc{OrthogonalDistance} if \ccc{Base_distance} is a model of \ccc{OrthogonalDistance}.
