In the example below CSegment is registered as a model of the segment concept. template <> struct geometry_concept<CSegment> { typedef segment_concept type; }; The semantic of a segment is that it has a low and high point. A std::pair<Point, Point>, boost::tuple<Point, Point> or boost::array<Point, 2> could all be made models of segment by simply providing indirect access to their elements through traits, however, these objects cannot be made a model of both segment and rectangle in the same compilation unit, for obvious reason that duplicate specialization of the geometry_concept struct is illegal, but also because it would make overloading generic function by concept ambiguous if a type modeled more than one concept. Below is shown the default segment traits. Specialization of these traits is required for types that don't conform to the default behavior. template <typename Segment> struct segment_traits { typedef typename Segment::coordinate_type coordinate_type; typedef typename Segment::point_type point_type; static inline point_type get(const Segment& segment, direction_1d dir) { return segment.get(dir); } }; template <typename Segment> struct segment_mutable_traits { typedef typename segment_traits<Segment>::coordinate_type coordinate_type; typedef typename segment_traits<Segment>::point_type point_type; static inline void set(Segment& segment, direction_1d dir, const point_type& point) { segment.set(dir, p); } static inline Segment construct(const point_type& low, const point_type& high) { return Segment(low, high); } }; ## Functions

# Segment Data The library provides a model of the segment concept declared template<typename T> segment_data, where T is the coordinate type. This data type is used internally when a segment is needed and is available to the library user, who finds it convenient to use a library segment data type instead of providing their own. The data type is implemented to be convenient to use with the library traits. ## Members

# Segment Utils The library provides several algorithms for the manipulation of sets of segment data. In particular, the generalize line segment intersection algorithm used for polygon set operations is exposed through several interfaces to allow it to be used with any collection or sequence of objects that model the segment_concept. ## Functions
template <typename SegmentContainer, typename SegmentIterator> void intersect_segments( SegmentContainer* result, SegmentIterator first, SegmentIterator last) | Accumulates the result of splitting the segments in the iterator range at their intersection points into the result container. Preconditions: segment type used by all the input structures should model segment concept.Postconditions: no segments intersect except at their end points. Useful to satisfy the precondition of voronoi diagram construction. Expected n log n runtime, worst case quadratic runtime wrt. vertices + intersections.
template <typename Segment, typename SegmentIterator> void intersect_segments( vector<pair<size_t, Segment>* result, SegmentIterator first, SegmentIterator last) | Accumulates the result of splitting the segments in the iterator range at their intersection points into the result container. Preconditions: segment type used by all the input structures should model segment concept. Postconditions: no segments intersect except at their end points. The index of the input segment is paired with each resultant segment that was split to produce it to associate the result segments with the inputs segments. Expected n log n runtime, worst case quadratic runtime wrt. vertices + intersections.
template <typename Rectangle, typename SegmentIterator> void envelope_segments( Rectangle* rect, SegmentIterator first, SegmentIterator last) | Computes the bounding rectangle of the iterator range of line segments. Preconditions: segment type and rectangle type used by the input structures should model segment concept and rectangle concept respectively. Linear runtime.
