0 概述

Surface_mesh 类是半边数据结构的实现，可用于表示多面体表面。

相较于 Halfedge Data Structures 和 3D Polyhedral Surface ，其具有以下特点：

不同于基于指针，Surface_mesh基于索引（数据结构使用整数索引作为顶点、半边、边和面的描述符）；
向顶点、半边、边和面添加信息的机制要简单得多；
具有更低的内存占用。
元素被移除后，会被标记为已移除，需要调用垃圾回收函数才能实现真正地移除。

1 用法

Surface_mesh类提供了如下四个类来表示网格的基本元素：

Surface_mesh::Vertex_index
Surface_mesh::Halfedge_index
Surface_mesh::Face_index
Surface_mesh::Edge_index

由于Surface_mesh是基于索引值构造的，所以没有访问连接性或属性的成员函数。

1.1 栗子

#include <CGAL/Simple_cartesian.h>
#include <CGAL/Surface_mesh.h>
typedef CGAL::Simple_cartesian<double> K;
typedef CGAL::Surface_mesh<K::Point_3> Mesh;
typedef Mesh::Vertex_index vertex_descriptor;   //基于索引的顶点描述
typedef Mesh::Face_index face_descriptor;       //基于索引的面描述
int main()
{Mesh m;// Add the points as verticesvertex_descriptor u = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(0, 1, 0));vertex_descriptor v = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(0, 0, 0));vertex_descriptor w = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(1, 1, 0));vertex_descriptor x = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(1, 0, 0));m.add_face(u, v, w);face_descriptor f = m.add_face(u, v, x);if (f == Mesh::null_face()){std::cerr << "The face could not be added because of an orientation error." << std::endl;f = m.add_face(u, x, v);assert(f != Mesh::null_face());}return 0;
}

在这个例子中，通过添加两个面创建一个简单的表面网格。可以看到，在使用add_face()添加face的时候，若其返回的Face_index值为Surface_mesh::null_face()则说明添加面的操作在拓扑上无效，添加失败。

2 连接关系

在一个surface_mesh中可以使用如下函数进行基于连接关系的查询：
Surface_mesh::opposite(), Surface_mesh::next(), Surface_mesh::prev(), Surface_mesh::target(), and Surface_mesh::face()。此外，函数Surface_mesh::halfedge() 能够获取与顶点和面相关联的半边。

范围和迭代器

surface_mesh提供了迭代器用以枚举所有的顶点、半边、边和面。

#include <vector>
#include <CGAL/Simple_cartesian.h>
#include <CGAL/Surface_mesh.h>
typedef CGAL::Simple_cartesian<double> K;
typedef CGAL::Surface_mesh<K::Point_3> Mesh;
typedef Mesh::Vertex_index vertex_descriptor;
typedef Mesh::Face_index face_descriptor;
int main()
{Mesh m;// u            x// +------------+// |            |// |            |// |      f     |// |            |// |            |// +------------+// v            w// Add the points as verticesvertex_descriptor u = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(0,1,0));vertex_descriptor v = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(0,0,0));vertex_descriptor w = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(1,0,0));vertex_descriptor x = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(1,1,0));/* face_descriptor f = */ m.add_face(u,v,w,x);{std::cout << "all vertices " << std::endl;// The vertex iterator type is a nested type of the Vertex_rangeMesh::Vertex_range::iterator  vb, ve;Mesh::Vertex_range r = m.vertices();// The iterators can be accessed through the C++ range APIvb = r.begin();ve = r.end();// or the boost Range APIvb = boost::begin(r);ve = boost::end(r);// or with boost::tie, as the CGAL range derives from std::pairfor(boost::tie(vb, ve) = m.vertices(); vb != ve; ++vb){std::cout << *vb << std::endl;}// Instead of the classical for loop one can use// the boost macro for a rangefor(vertex_descriptor vd : m.vertices()){std::cout << vd << std::endl;}// or the C++11 for loop. Note that there is a ':' and not a ',' as in BOOST_FOREACHfor(vertex_descriptor vd : m.vertices()){std::cout << vd << std::endl;}}return 0;
}

这是一个遍历表面网格中所有顶点索引的例子。其中关键迭代器类型Mesh::Vertex_range::iterator，关键范围类型Mesh::Vertex_range。通过后者得到前者，进而对范围中元素进行迭代遍历。

4 循环器

围绕面的循环器：

CGAL::Halfedge_around_face_circulator<Mesh>
CGAL::Vertex_around_face_circulator<Mesh>
CGAL::Face_around_face_circulator<Mesh>

围绕目标顶点的循环器：

CGAL::Halfedge_around_target_circulator<Mesh>
CGAL::Vertex_around_target_circulator<Mesh>
CGAL::Face_around_target_circulator<Mesh>

所有循环器围绕方向为逆时针。

#include <CGAL/Simple_cartesian.h>
#include <CGAL/Surface_mesh.h>
#include <vector>
typedef CGAL::Simple_cartesian<double> K;
typedef CGAL::Surface_mesh<K::Point_3> Mesh;
typedef Mesh::Vertex_index vertex_descriptor;
typedef Mesh::Face_index face_descriptor;
int main()
{Mesh m;// u            x// +------------+// |            |// |            |// |      f     |// |            |// |            |// +------------+// v            w// Add the points as verticesvertex_descriptor u = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(0,1,0));vertex_descriptor v = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(0,0,0));vertex_descriptor w = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(1,0,0));vertex_descriptor x = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(1,1,0));face_descriptor f = m.add_face(u,v,w,x);{std::cout << "vertices around vertex " << v << std::endl;CGAL::Vertex_around_target_circulator<Mesh> vbegin(m.halfedge(v),m), done(vbegin);do {std::cout << *vbegin++ << std::endl;} while(vbegin != done);}{std::cout << "vertices around face " << f << std::endl;CGAL::Vertex_around_face_iterator<Mesh> vbegin, vend;for(boost::tie(vbegin, vend) = vertices_around_face(m.halfedge(f), m);vbegin != vend;++vbegin){std::cout << *vbegin << std::endl;}}// or the same again, but directly with a range based loopfor(vertex_descriptor vd : vertices_around_face(m.halfedge(f), m)){std::cout << vd << std::endl;}return 0;
}

这个例子中展示了Vertex_around_target_circulator的使用方法，其中也展示了使用迭代器达到相同的效果。

5 属性

surface_mesh提供了可以在运行时指定顶点、半边、边和面的属性的机制。每个属性通过一个字符串和它的键类型进行标识。

默认情况下，只有一个属性"v:point"。当通过 Surface_mesh::add_vertex() 向数据结构添加新点时，必须提供此属性的值。可以使用 Surface_mesh::points() 或 Surface_mesh::point(Surface_mesh::Vertex_index v) 直接访问该属性。

当一个元素被移除，它并不会立刻被真正意义上的删除，而是被标记为“已移除”，只有调用Surface_mesh::collect_garbage()才能真正地移除该元素的所有相关属性。

#include <string>
#include <CGAL/Simple_cartesian.h>
#include <CGAL/Surface_mesh.h>
typedef CGAL::Simple_cartesian<double> K;
typedef CGAL::Surface_mesh<K::Point_3> Mesh;
typedef Mesh::Vertex_index vertex_descriptor;
typedef Mesh::Face_index face_descriptor;
int main()
{Mesh m;vertex_descriptor v0 = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(0,2,0));vertex_descriptor v1 = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(2,2,0));vertex_descriptor v2 = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(0,0,0));vertex_descriptor v3 = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(2,0,0));vertex_descriptor v4 = m.add_vertex(K::Point_3(1,1,0));m.add_face(v3, v1, v4);m.add_face(v0, v4, v1);m.add_face(v0, v2, v4);m.add_face(v2, v3, v4);// give each vertex a name, the default is emptyMesh::Property_map<vertex_descriptor,std::string> name;bool created;boost::tie(name, created) = m.add_property_map<vertex_descriptor,std::string>("v:name","");assert(created);// add some names to the verticesname[v0] = "hello";name[v2] = "world";{// You get an existing property, and created will be falseMesh::Property_map<vertex_descriptor,std::string> name;bool created;boost::tie(name, created) = m.add_property_map<vertex_descriptor,std::string>("v:name", "");assert(! created);}//  You can't get a property that does not existMesh::Property_map<face_descriptor,std::string> gnus;bool found;boost::tie(gnus, found) = m.property_map<face_descriptor,std::string>("v:gnus");assert(! found);// retrieve the point property for which exists a convenience functionMesh::Property_map<vertex_descriptor, K::Point_3> location = m.points();for(vertex_descriptor vd : m.vertices()) {std::cout << name[vd] << " @ " << location[vd] << std::endl;}std::vector<std::string> props = m.properties<vertex_descriptor>();for(std::string p : props){std::cout << p << std::endl;}// delete the string property againm.remove_property_map(name);return 0;
}

上面例子中依次实现了property的创建、查询、删除等操作。

6 边界

一个半边存储了其入射面的引用，如果它没有入射面，则表示该半边在边界上，即sm.face(h) == Surface_mesh::null_face()。若一个半边在边界上，那么包含它的边和以它为入射半边的顶点都位于边界上。

Surface_mesh::is_border(Vertex_index v, bool check_all_incident_halfedges = false)：检查一个顶点的关联半边是否在边界上。

Surface_mesh::set_vertex_halfedge_to_border_halfedge(Vertex_index v) //将单个顶点的关联半边设置为边界半边
Surface_mesh::set_vertex_halfedge_to_border_halfedge(Halfedge_index h) //将面h的边界顶点的关联半边设置为边界半边
Surface_mesh::set_vertex_halfedge_to_border_halfedge() //将单表面网格上所有顶点的关联半边设置为边界半边
