[name]

The basis for a half-edge data structure, also known as doubly connected edge list (DCEL).

Constructor

[name]( [param:VertexNode vertex], [param:Face face] )

[page:VertexNode vertex] - [page:VertexNode] A reference to its destination vertex.

[page:Face face] - [page:Face] A reference to its face.

Properties

[property:VertexNode vertex]

Reference to the destination vertex. The origin vertex can be obtained by querying the destination of its twin, or of the previous half-edge. Default is undefined.

[property:HalfEdge prev]

Reference to the previous half-edge of the same face. Default is null.

[property:HalfEdge next]

Reference to the next half-edge of the same face. Default is null.

[property:HalfEdge twin]

Reference to the twin half-edge to reach the opposite face. Default is null.

[property:Face face]

Each half-edge bounds a single face and thus has a reference to that face. Default is undefined.

Methods

[method:VertexNode head]()

Returns the destintation vertex.

[method:VertexNode tail]()

Returns the origin vertex.

[method:Float length]()

Returns the [link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance Euclidean length] (straight-line length) of the edge.

[method:Float lengthSquared]()

Returns the square of the [link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance Euclidean length] (straight-line length) of the edge.

[method:HalfEdge setTwin]( [param:HalfEdge edge] )

[page:HalfEdge edge] - Any half-edge.

Sets the twin edge of this half-edge. It also ensures that the twin reference of the given half-edge is correctly set.
