curves.rs

//! Where two curves meet, in the plane and in space.
//!
//! *Elsewhere* these are `Geom2dAPI_InterCurveCurve` and `IntCurve` for the
//! plane, and extrema-based crossing for space. The planar case is the
//! load-bearing one: boolean face splitting happens in a surface's parameter
//! space, and the curves it splits with are pcurves, so 2D curve/curve is the
//! operation the whole §8 pipeline stands on.
//!
//! # Two curves in space generically miss
//!
//! In the plane, two curves that cross, cross. In space they pass by: a
//! crossing is two points closer than a tolerance, not an exact common point,
//! and pretending otherwise would make every 3D result empty. So the 3D
//! answer reports the *gap* it achieved at each crossing, and the caller's
//! tolerance decides what counts. The 2D answer reports gaps too (a solved
//! crossing is still a pair of floats), but there the gap is rounding, not
//! geometry.
//!
//! # Overlap is an answer, not a failure
//!
//! Two collinear lines, two arcs of one circle: where the supports coincide,
//! "the intersection points" do not exist; the intersection is a stretch of
//! curve. That is reported as an overlap with the parameter ranges involved.
//! Detected for the analytic same-support cases; two B-splines that happen to
//! trace the same path are *not* detected as overlapping, and that limit is
//! recorded rather than discovered.
//!
//! # The general path is honest about resolution
//!
//! Non-analytic pairs are seeded by sampling both curves into segments and
//! testing the pairs, then polished by Newton onto the true crossing. Like the
//! surface seeding it mirrors, it finds what the sampling resolves: two
//! crossings closer together than a sample step can read as one. The sampling
//! density is a stated knob, not a hidden constant.
