I'm not sure what you mean by "basic polygon algorithm". If you could qualify that phrase [snipped] No, I cannot qualify that phrase. You see the convex hull in most
Arash, libraries, e.g. wykobi, and in most textbooks on geometry, and in every spatial database, and can be used to figure out things like diameter. Therefore I consider it as basic.
In short this is a discussion about the applicability and fitness of a polygon library, not a "mine-is-better-than-yours" debate.
If you've read all my mails I tried to avoid exactly that, giving objective statements and objective measurements. Regards, Barend
