CGAL users discussion list

[<>]

Pierre,

  Thanks for the suggestion, but this is not really what I mean by the term
progressive mesh.  Rather, what I meant was the progressive mesh structure
introduced by Hoppe
(http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/hoppe/proj/pm).  Basically, the
reason I asked on the CGAL discuss list is because it seems like CGAL takes on
part of the way to implementing this structure.  Namely, they provide the
EdgeCollapsable mesh concept.  I was just curious how difficult it would be to
implement and properly keep track of the edge collapses and to reintroduce
removed vertices with a vertex split.  I also wanted to see if anyone else had
done this, as I  see no real use in re-inventing the wheel.

Thanks,
Rob
