Is it possible to use the Projection_traits_xy_3 adapter with the "2D Polyline Simplification" package to simplify 2.5D polylines with CGAL?

I need to simplify a set of 2.5D polylines. Specifically, 3D polylines that do not overlap in the XY plane.

I tried to use the Projection_traits_xy_3 adapter with the "2D Polyline Simplification" package from CGAL, but I have compilation errors when calling the function CGAL::Polyline_simplification_2::simplify, after building the triangulation.

If what I'm trying to do is currently possible to do with CGAL, please someone can show me the basic example code.

  • Thank you for pointing this out. I added the point/segment distance to Projection_traits_xy_3 and added an example in this pull request.
