Hi dear CGAL users,
this is the first time I send a message to this list
asking a question. Lets see how it goes!


Well, I am looking for a function like the "bounding_box"
but that returns the "OBB - oriented bounding box" from a
list of 3D points, not the axis-aligned cube. 

Is there such function in CGAL??? 

Or do I have to compute the orientation of the 
data with PCA, rotate it and finally use the bounding_box
function??? (just an idea)

Thank you for your help ...


Sincerely 
JUlio
