<h1>Qhull functions, macros, and data structures</h1>
<blockquote>
<p>The following sections provide an overview and index to
Qhull's functions, macros, and data structures. Each
section starts with an introduction. If you use Opera, the source code links back to this documentation.
See also <a href=../../html/qh-code.htm#library>Calling
Qhull from C programs</a> and <a href="../../html/qh-code.htm#cpp">Calling Qhull from C++ programs</a>.</p>
<p>Qhull uses the following conventions:</p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>in code, global variables start with "qh "
<li>in documentation, global variables start with 'qh.'
<li>constants start with an upper case word
<li>important globals include an '_'
<li>functions, macros, and constants start with "qh_"</li>
<li>data types end in "T"</li>
<li>macros with arguments end in "_"</li>
<li>iterators are macros that use local variables</li>
<li>iterators for sets start with "FOREACH"</li>
<li>iterators for lists start with "FORALL"</li>
<li>qhull options are in single quotes (e.g., 'Pdn')</li>
<li>lists are sorted alphabetically</li>
<li>preprocessor directives on left margin for older compilers</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>
When reading the code, please note that the
global data structure, 'qh', is a macro. It
either expands to "qh_qh." or to
"qh_qh->". The later is used for
applications which run concurrent calls to qh_qhull().
<p>
When reading code with an editor, a search for
<i>"procedure</i>
will locate the header of <i>qh_procedure</i>. A search for <i>* procedure</i>
will locate the tail of <i>qh_procedure</i>.
<p>A useful starting point is <a href="libqhull.h">libqhull.h</a>. It defines most
of Qhull data structures and top-level functions. Search for <i>'PFn'</i> to
determine the corresponding constant in Qhull. Search for <i>'Fp'</i> to
determine the corresponding <a href="libqhull.h#qh_PRINT">qh_PRINT...</a> constant.
Search <a href="io.c">io.c</a> to learn how the print function is implemented.</p>
<p>If your web browser loads .c and .h files with an external application,
change the MIME type of .c and .h files to "text/html".
Opera does not always work since it treats '<' characters as HTML tags.
<p>
Please report documentation and link errors
to <a href="mailto:qhull-bug@qhull.org">qhull-bug@qhull.org</a>.
