TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell Concept Reference
Concepts

## Definition

The concept `TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell` describes the type used by a `TriangulationDataStructure` to store the full cells.

It sets requirements of combinatorial nature only, as geometry is not concerned here. In the context of triangulation, the term full cell refers to a face of maximal dimension. This maximality characteristic is emphasized by using the adjective full.

A `TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell` is responsible for storing handles to the vertices of the full cell as well as handles to the adjacent full cells. Two full cells are said to be adjacent when they share a facet. Adjacent full cells are called hereafter neighbors.

Has Models:

  `CGAL::Triangulation_ds_full_cell<TriangulationDataStructure,DSFullCellStoragePolicy>`

  `CGAL::Triangulation_full_cell<TriangulationTraits, Data, TriangulationDSFullCell>`

## Member Function Documentation

bool TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::has_neighbor | ( | Full_cell_handle | n) |  | const

Returns `true` if the full cell `n` is a neighbor of the full cell `c`.

Returns `false` otherwise.

bool TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::has_neighbor | ( | Full_cell_handle | n,
|  | int & | ret
| ) |  | const

Returns `true` and sets the value of `ret` to the index of `n` as a neighbor of `c` if the full cell `n` is a neighbor of the full cell `c`.

Returns `false` otherwise.

bool TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::has_vertex | ( | Vertex_handle | v) |  | const

Returns `true` if the vertex `v` is a vertex of the full cell `c`.

Returns `false` otherwise.

bool TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::has_vertex | ( | Vertex_handle | v,
|  | int & | ret
| ) |  | const

Returns `true` and sets the value of `ret` to the index of `v` in `c` if the vertex `v` is a vertex of the full cell `c`.

Returns `false` otherwise.

int TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::index | ( | Full_cell_handle | n) |  | const

Returns the index `i` such that `c.neighbor(i)==n`.

Precondition
  `n` must be a neighbor of `c`.

int TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::index | ( | Vertex_handle | v) |  | const

Returns the index `i` of the vertex `v` such that `c.vertex(i)==v`.

Precondition
  `v` must be a vertex of the `c`.

bool TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::is_valid | ( | bool | verbose = `false`) |  | const

This is a function for debugging purpose.

Debugging Support

Performs some validity checks on the full cell `c`.

It must at least check that for each existing neighbor `n`, `c` is also a neighbor of `n`.

Returns `true` if all the tests pass, `false` if any test fails. See the documentation for the models of this concept to see the additionnal (if any) validity checks that they implement.

int TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::maximal_dimension | ( | ) |  | const

Returns one less than the maximum number of vertices that the full cell can store.

This does not return the dimension of the actual full cell stored in `c`.

int TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::mirror_index | ( | const int | i) |  | const

Returns the index of `c` in its \( i^{th}\) neighbor (`c.neighbor(i)`).

If the returned integer is not negative, it holds that `c.neighbor(i)->neighbor(j) == c`. Returns `-1` if `c` has no adjacent full cell of index `i`.

Precondition
  \(0 \leq i \leq \) `maximal_dimension()`.

Vertex_handle TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::mirror_vertex | ( | const int | i,
|  | const int | cur_dim
| ) |  | const

Returns a handle to the mirror vertex of the `i`-th vertex of full cell `c`.

`cur_dim` is the current dimension of the triangulation data structure.

Advanced

This function works even if the adjacency information stored in the neighbor full cell `*c.neighbor(i)` is corrupted. This is useful when temporary corruption is necessary during surgical operations on a triangulation.

Precondition
  \(0 \leq i,\) `cur_dim` \( \leq \) `maximal_dimension()`.

Full_cell_handle TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::neighbor | ( | const int | i) |  | const

Returns the full cell opposite to the `i`-th vertex of the full cell `c`.

Precondition
  \(0 \leq i \leq \)`maximal_dimension()`.

void TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::set_mirror_index | ( | const int | i,
|  | const int | index
| ) |  |

Sets the mirror index of the \( i\)-th vertex of `c` to `index`.

This corresponds to the index, in `c->neighbor(i)`, of the full cell `c`.

Note: a model of this concept may choose not to store mirror indices, in which case this function should do nothing.

Precondition
  \(0 \leq i \leq \)`maximal_dimension()`.

void TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::set_neighbor | ( | const int | i,
|  | Full_cell_handle | n
| ) |  |

Sets the `i`-th neighbor of `c` to `n`.

Full cell `n` is opposite to the \( i\)-th vertex of `c`.

Precondition
  \(0 \leq i \leq \)`maximal_dimension()`.

void TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::set_vertex | ( | const int | i,
|  | Vertex_handle | v
| ) |  |

Sets the \( i\)-th vertex of the full cell.

Precondition
  \(0 \leq i \leq \) `maximal_dimension()`.

void TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::swap_vertices | ( | int | d1,
|  | int | d2
| ) |  |

Switches the orientation of the full cell `c` by swapping its vertices with index `d1` and `d2`.

Precondition
  \(0 \leq d1,d2 \leq \)`maximal_dimension()`.

const TDS_data& TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::tds_data | ( | ) |  | const

Returns the data member of type `TDS_data`.

It is typically used to mark the full cell as visited during operations on a `TriangulationDataStructure`.

Vertex_handle TriangulationDataStructure::FullCell::vertex | ( | const int | i) |  | const

Returns the `i`-th vertex of the full cell.

Precondition
  \(0 \leq i \leq \) `maximal_dimension()`.
