Detailed Description

Builds the buffer geometry for a given input geometry and precision model.

Allows setting the level of approximation for circular arcs, and the precision model in which to carry out the computation.

When computing buffers in floating point double-precision it can happen that the process of iterated noding can fail to converge (terminate).

In this case a TopologyException will be thrown. Retrying the computation in a fixed precision can produce more robust results.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

geos::operation::buffer::BufferBuilder::BufferBuilder ( const BufferParameters nBufParams  )  [inline]

Creates a new BufferBuilder

Parameters:
nBufParams buffer parameters, this object will keep a reference to the passed parameters so caller must make sure the object is kept alive for the whole lifetime of the buffer builder.


Member Function Documentation

geom::Geometry* geos::operation::buffer::BufferBuilder::bufferLineSingleSided ( const geom::Geometry g,
double  distance,
bool  leftSide 
)

Generates offset curve for linear geometry.

Parameters:
g non-areal geometry object
distance width of offset
leftSide controls on which side of the input geometry offset curve is generated.
Note:
For left-side offset curve, the offset will be at the left side of the input line and retain the same direction. For right-side offset curve, it'll be at the right side and in the opposite direction.

BufferParameters::setSingleSided parameter, which is specific to areal geometries only, is ignored by this routine.

Not in JTS: this is a GEOS extension

void geos::operation::buffer::BufferBuilder::setNoder ( noding::Noder newNoder  )  [inline]

Sets the noding::Noder to use during noding. This allows choosing fast but non-robust noding, or slower but robust noding.

Parameters:
noder the noder to use

void geos::operation::buffer::BufferBuilder::setWorkingPrecisionModel ( const geom::PrecisionModel pm  )  [inline]

Sets the precision model to use during the curve computation and noding, if it is different to the precision model of the Geometry. If the precision model is less than the precision of the Geometry precision model, the Geometry must have previously been rounded to that precision.

Parameters:
pm the precision model to use
