I can use try{} catch{} to catch the failure of boolean... but still don't know why it fails...

Hi,

I have a failed case when running Nef_polyhedron_3 Union (or Join) Operation. I have two Nef_polyhedron_3 inputs : Nef_1.nef3 and Nef_2.nef3. Both Nef polyhdra are converted from Polyhedron_3 (closed and valid). CGAL crashes on performing Union of Nef_1 and Nef_2. Any ideas why it fails? Is there any mechanism in CGAL to catch the failure and avoid crashing the program?

I am using CGAL 3.4 on Windows XP with Visual Studio 2008.

I tried to attach .zip files of Nef_1.nef3 and Nef_2.nef3, but not successful due to the limit of the file size(each file is about 1M). How do I transfer these files onto the forum or maybe CGAL people?

Thanks.
Joe
