// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// GEANT 4 class source file
//
//
// G4Polyhedra.cc
//
// Implementation of a CSG polyhedra, as an inherited class of G4VCSGfaceted.
//
// To be done:
//    * Cracks: there are probably small cracks in the seams between the
//      phi face (G4PolyPhiFace) and sides (G4PolyhedraSide) that are not
//      entirely leakproof. Also, I am not sure all vertices are leak proof.
//    * Many optimizations are possible, but not implemented.
//    * Visualization needs to be updated outside of this routine.
//
// Utility classes:
//    * G4EnclosingCylinder: I decided a quick check of geometry would be a
//      good idea (for CPU speed). If the quick check fails, the regular
//      full-blown G4VCSGfaceted version is invoked.
//    * G4ReduciblePolygon: Really meant as a check of input parameters,
//      this utility class also "converts" the GEANT3-like PGON/PCON
//      arguments into the newer ones.
// Both these classes are implemented outside this file because they are
// shared with G4Polycone.
