Implementing a Geometric Constraint Solver
This guide is oriented towards the person who needs to implement a
geometric constraint solver. We begin with an introduction to constraint solving theory. From there we consider the general
strategy employed by a graph-based constraint solving
approach. Next we detail the process we have employed in developing a
two-dimensional graph-based geometric
constraint solver, and consider certain matters
related to the efficiency of the solver.
Finally we provide further
implementation details to aid in the
implementation process.
