Convert Polygon_2 with Kernel::Point_2 to Polygon_2 with Traits::Point_2

[stla]

Hello all,

I'm switching to the 2D stuff now.

I started a R package where the user gives a list of 2D vertices and then I construct a Polygon_2 with points having type Epeck::Point_2. This polygon is stored in a pointer and the user can request some predicates such as is_convex, etc, the bounding box, etc.

Nice. But now I want to make the decomposition into convex parts available to the user. This requires another type of polygon, namely a Polygon_2 with points Traits::Point_2 (by the way I never understood what "traits" mean in French).

So is there an easy way to convert between these two types of polygons?

Or maybe you can recommend another strategy. For example I didn't check whether the predicates is_convex etc work with the second type of polygons? If so, I would not need to convert anything. I'm going to check...

Yeah, this seems to work!

Yet another useless question ;-) (not so since this is by asking this question that I got the idea ^^)
