Hi,

i am trying to find the deviation between two meshes. For e.g. the
difference between two sets of points defined in 3d space, and i plan to
visualise the distance using some 3d visualisation tool for e.g. QT3d or
some open gl based library.

I have two sets of meshes, basically two .stl files. I have programmed to
read them as inputs. Now I need to calculate the deviation between the
corresponding meshes. For this, I understand that the Hausdorff distance is
a possible mathematical tool. Is it currently possible in CGAL to calculate
the Hausdorff distance between two meshes?

i managed to find one piece of code. but its more or less a programm in
itself. its called M.E.S.H. I dont want to use it as it is because, 1. its
written in C, 2. I want to develop my own application (using a library of
course).

The other questions asked on this forum are pointing towards the
mathematical algorithm, I dont plan to implement the algorithm on my own.

I am using QT5 for programming with msvc2010(32 bit).

Best Regards

tdk.
