strategy::distance::pythagoras_box_box

Strategy to calculate the distance between two boxes.

template<typename CalculationType>
class strategy::distance::pythagoras_box_box
{
  // ...
};

Parameter	Default	Description
typename CalculationType	void	numeric type for calculation (e.g. high precision); if void then it is extracted automatically from the coordinate type and (if necessary) promoted to floating point

Function	Description	Parameters	Returns
template<typename Box1, typename Box2> calculation_type< Box1, Box2 >::type apply(Box1 const & box1, Box2 const & box2)	applies the distance calculation using pythagoras_box_box	Box1 const &: box1: first box Box2 const &: box2: second box	the calculated distance (including taking the square root)
