Detailed Description

template<int dim>
class regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >

Helper class that provides core functionality for a connected component of a dim-manifold triangulation.

Each connected component is represented by the class Component<dim>, which uses this as a base class. End users should not need to refer to ComponentBase directly.

See the Component class notes for further information.

Neither this class nor the "end user" class Component<dim> support value semantics: they cannot be copied, swapped, or manually constructed. Their memory is managed by the Triangulation class, and their locations in memory define them. See Component<dim> for further details.

Python
This base class is not present, but the "end user" class Component<dim> is.
Template Parameters
dimthe dimension of the underlying triangulation. This must be between 2 and 15 inclusive.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ComponentBase()

template<int dim>
regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::ComponentBase
inlineprotected

Default constructor.

Marks the component as orientable, with no boundary facets.

Member Function Documentation

◆ boundaryComponent()

template<int dim>
BoundaryComponent< dim > * regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::boundaryComponent ( size_t  index) const
inline

Returns the boundary component at the given index in this component.

Note that the index of a boundary component within this component may not be the same as its index within the overall triangulation.

Parameters
indexspecifies which boundary component to return; this should be between 0 and countBoundaryComponents()-1 inclusive.
Returns
the requested boundary component.

◆ boundaryComponents()

template<int dim>
auto regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::boundaryComponents
inline

Returns an object that allows iteration through and random access to all boundary components in this component.

The object that is returned is lightweight, and can be happily copied by value. The C++ type of the object is subject to change, so C++ users should use auto (just like this declaration does).

The returned object is guaranteed to be an instance of ListView, which means it offers basic container-like functions and supports range-based for loops. Note that the elements of the list will be pointers, so your code might look like:

for (BoundaryComponent<dim>* bc : comp.boundaryComponents()) { ... }

The object that is returned will remain valid only for as long as this component object exists. In particular, the object will become invalid any time that the triangulation changes (since all component objects will be destroyed and others rebuilt in their place). Therefore it is best to treat this object as temporary only, and to call boundaryComponents() again each time you need it.

Returns
access to the list of all boundary components.

◆ countBoundaryComponents()

template<int dim>
size_t regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::countBoundaryComponents
inline

Returns the number of boundary components in this component.

Returns
the number of boundary components.

◆ countBoundaryFacets()

template<int dim>
size_t regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::countBoundaryFacets
inline

Returns the number of boundary facets in this component.

A boundary facet is a (dim-1)-dimensional facet of a top-dimensional simplex that is not joined to any adjacent simplex.

This routine runs in constant time (since the result is computed in advance, when the component is first created).

Returns
the total number of boundary facets.

◆ countEdges()

template<int dim>
size_t regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::countEdges
inline

A dimension-specific alias for countFaces<1>().

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions.

See countFaces() for further information.

◆ countPentachora()

template<int dim>
size_t regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::countPentachora
inline

A dimension-specific alias for countFaces<4>().

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions and dim ≥ 4.

See countFaces() for further information.

◆ countTetrahedra()

template<int dim>
size_t regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::countTetrahedra
inline

A dimension-specific alias for countFaces<3>().

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions and dim ≥ 3.

See countFaces() for further information.

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions.

See countFaces() for further information.

◆ countVertices()

template<int dim>
size_t regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::countVertices
inline

A dimension-specific alias for countFaces<0>().

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions.

See countFaces() for further information.

◆ detail()

std::string regina::Output< ComponentBase< dim > , supportsUtf8 >::detail ( ) const
inherited

Returns a detailed text representation of this object.

This text may span many lines, and should provide the user with all the information they could want. It should be human-readable, should not contain extremely long lines (which cause problems for users reading the output in a terminal), and should end with a final newline. There are no restrictions on the underlying character set.

Returns
a detailed text representation of this object.

◆ edge()

template<int dim>
Face< dim, 1 > * regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::edge ( size_t  index) const
inline

A dimension-specific alias for face<1>().

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions.

See face() for further information.

◆ edges()

template<int dim>
auto regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::edges
inline

A dimension-specific alias for faces<1>().

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions.

See faces() for further information.

◆ hasBoundaryFacets()

template<int dim>
bool regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::hasBoundaryFacets
inline

Determines if this component has any boundary facets.

This routine returns true if and only if this component contains some top-dimensional simplex with at least one facet that is not glued to an adjacent simplex.

Returns
true if and only if this component has boundary facet(s).

◆ index()

template<int dim>
size_t regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::index
inline

Returns the index of this component within the underlying triangulation.

Returns
the index of this component.

◆ isOrientable()

template<int dim>
bool regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::isOrientable
inline

Determines if this component is orientable.

This routine runs in constant time (since orientability is determined in advance, when the component is first created).

Returns
true if and only if this component is orientable.

◆ isValid()

template<int dim>
bool regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::isValid
inline

Determines if this component is valid.

This uses the same criteria as Triangulation<dim>::isValid(); see the Triangulation<dim>::isValid() documentation for details.

As with Triangulation<dim>, this tests for bad self-identifications in all dimensions, but only tests for bad links in Regina's standard dimensions.

Returns
true if and only if this component is valid.

◆ markedIndex()

size_t regina::MarkedElement::markedIndex ( ) const
inlineinherited

Returns the index at which this object is stored in an MarkedVector.

If this object does not belong to an MarkedVector, the return value is undefined.

Returns
the index at which this object is stored.

◆ pentachora()

template<int dim>
auto regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::pentachora
inline

A dimension-specific alias for faces<4>(), or an alias for simplices() in dimension dim = 4.

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions and dim ≥ 4.

See faces() for further information.

◆ pentachoron()

template<int dim>
Face< dim, 4 > * regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::pentachoron ( size_t  index) const
inline

A dimension-specific alias for face<4>().

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions and dim ≥ 4.

See face() for further information.

◆ simplex()

template<int dim>
Simplex< dim > * regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::simplex ( size_t  index) const
inline

Returns the top-dimensional simplex at the given index in this component.

Note that the index within this component may not be the same as the index within the overall triangulation.

Parameters
indexspecifies which simplex to return; this value should be between 0 and size()-1 inclusive.
Returns
the indexth top-dimensional simplex.

◆ simplices()

template<int dim>
auto regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::simplices
inline

Returns an object that allows iteration through and random access to all top-dimensional simplices in this component.

The object that is returned is lightweight, and can be happily copied by value. The C++ type of the object is subject to change, so C++ users should use auto (just like this declaration does).

The returned object is guaranteed to be an instance of ListView, which means it offers basic container-like functions and supports range-based for loops. Note that the elements of the list will be pointers, so your code might look like:

for (Simplex<dim>* s : comp.simplices()) { ... }

The object that is returned will remain valid only for as long as this component object exists. In particular, the object will become invalid any time that the triangulation changes (since all component objects will be destroyed and others rebuilt in their place). Therefore it is best to treat this object as temporary only, and to call simplices() again each time you need it.

Returns
access to the list of all top-dimensional simplices.

◆ size()

template<int dim>
size_t regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::size
inline

Returns the number of top-dimensional simplices in this component.

Returns
The number of top-dimensional simplices.

◆ str()

std::string regina::Output< ComponentBase< dim > , supportsUtf8 >::str ( ) const
inherited

Returns a short text representation of this object.

This text should be human-readable, should use plain ASCII characters where possible, and should not contain any newlines.

Within these limits, this short text ouptut should be as information-rich as possible, since in most cases this forms the basis for the Python __str__() and __repr__() functions.

Python
The Python "stringification" function __str__() will use precisely this function, and for most classes the Python __repr__() function will incorporate this into its output.
Returns
a short text representation of this object.

◆ tetrahedra()

template<int dim>
auto regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::tetrahedra
inline

A dimension-specific alias for faces<3>(), or an alias for simplices() in dimension dim = 3.

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions and dim ≥ 3.

See faces() for further information.

◆ tetrahedron()

template<int dim>
Face< dim, 3 > * regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::tetrahedron ( size_t  index) const
inline

A dimension-specific alias for face<3>().

This alias is available only when dim is one of Regina's standard dimensions and dim ≥ 3.

◆ utf8()

std::string regina::Output< ComponentBase< dim > , supportsUtf8 >::utf8 ( ) const
inherited

Returns a short text representation of this object using unicode characters.

Like str(), this text should be human-readable, should not contain any newlines, and (within these constraints) should be as information-rich as is reasonable.

Unlike str(), this function may use unicode characters to make the output more pleasant to read. The string that is returned will be encoded in UTF-8.

Returns
a short text representation of this object.

◆ vertex()

template<int dim>
Face< dim, 0 > * regina::detail::ComponentBase< dim >::vertex ( size_t  index) const
inline

A dimension-specific alias for face<0>().
