Rectangle Concept

The rectangle concept tag is rectangle_concept

To register a user defined type as a model of rectangle concept, specialize the geometry concept meta-function for that type. In the example below CRectangle is registered as a model of rectangle concept.

template <>
struct geometry_concept<CRectangle> { typedef rectangle_concept type; };

The semantic of a rectangle is that it has an x and a y interval and these intervals conform to the semantic of an interval including its invariant. This invariant on the intervals of a rectangle is enforced by the generic library functions that operate on rectangles, and is not expected of the data type itself or the concept mapping of that data type to the rectangle concept through its traits. In this way a boost::tuple<int, int, int, int> or boost::array<int, 4> could be made models of rectangle by simply providing indirect access to their elements through traits.

Below is shown the default rectangle traits. Specialization of these traits is required for types that don't conform to the default behavior. The interested reader will note SFINAE is used on the traits to allow only an object that provides a member type definition of interval_type to work with the default read only traits. This becomes necessary when refinements of concepts are used and it is undesirable to attempt to match default traits to non-rectangle types at compile time. Specializing rectangle_traits can be done easily by simply providing gtl_yes as the enable parameter.

template <typename T, typename enable = gtl_yes>
struct rectangle_traits {};

template <typename T>
struct rectangle_traits<T, gtl_no> {};

template <typename T>
struct rectangle_traits<T, typename gtl_same_type<typename T::interval_type, typename T::interval_type>::type> {
     typedef typename T::coordinate_type coordinate_type;
     typedef typename T::interval_type interval_type;
     static inline interval_type get(const T& rectangle, orientation_2d orient) {
          return rectangle.get(orient); }
};

template <typename T>
struct rectangle_mutable_traits {
     template <typename T2>
     static inline void set(T& rectangle, orientation_2d orient, const T2& interval) {
          rectangle.set(orient, interval); }
     template <typename T2, typename T3>
     static inline T construct(const T2& interval_horizontal, const T3& interval_vertical) {
          return T(interval_horizontal, interval_vertical); }
};

Rectangle Data

The library provides a model of rectangle concept declared template<typename T> rectangle_data where T is the coordinate type.

This data type is used internally when a rectangle is needed and is available to the library user who finds it convenient to use a library rectangle data type instead of providing their own. The data type is implemented to be convenient to use with the library traits.
