I'm trying to create and mesh a cylinder using an implicit function.
I can create the cylinder using creating a Surface_3 object using the
implicit function
and a bounding sphere, however the problem is that the end boundary edges of
the cylinder
are not smooth, obviously as a result of using a bounding sphere.

    Surface_3 surface( implicit_function,               //pointer to
function
                       Sphere_3( CGAL::ORIGIN, 4. ));   //bounding sphere

Is there a way to create the cylinder surface such that the end boundary
edges are smooth? 
I have tried finding methods in the manual, without much luck.

If you could point me in the right direction that would be greatly
appreciated.
