Module continuous 

Online continuous pathfinder trait, polyline path, and search result vocabulary. Continuous polygonal path types and the [PolygonPathfinder] search trait.

Online exact solvers in this owner crate (visibility graph, TFS) share one contract: free-space geometry in a PolygonScene, Euclidean polyline cost on [PolygonPath], and [SearchOutcome] found/no-path with [PolygonSearchStats]. Invalid free-space endpoints are [PolygonSearchError] (Err); unreachable but valid endpoints are Ok(NoPath). Scene geometry validation (PolygonValidationError) is a separate static/prep surface—not returned from search directly.

Prepared alternative

Source-rooted repeated queries use prepared maps in crate::shortest_path_map, not this trait.

Structs

PolygonPath

Non-empty free-space polyline in scene coordinates with Euclidean cost.

PolygonSearchStats

Work counters for polygonal search (typically expanded graph vertices).

Enums

PolygonPathBuildError

Polygon path construction failed (empty polyline or invariant violation).

PolygonSearchError

Request rejected before search, or budget hard stop mid-search.

Traits

PolygonPathfinder

Online exact pathfinder over a static polygonal obstacle scene.

Type Aliases

PolygonSearchResult

Polygonal search return type: validation / budget Err, or found/no-path with stats.
