/** This class represent a Binary Space Partition tree.

 * 

BSP trees are an efficient way to represent space partitions and * to associate attributes with each cell. Each node in a BSP tree * represents a convex region which is partitioned in two convex * sub-regions at each side of a cut hyperplane. The root tree * contains the complete space.

*

The main use of such partitions is to use a boolean attribute to * define an inside/outside property, hence representing arbitrary * polytopes (line segments in 1D, polygons in 2D and polyhedrons in * 3D) and to operate on them.

*

Another example would be to represent Voronoi tesselations, the * attribute of each cell holding the defining point of the cell.

*

The application-defined attributes are shared among copied * instances and propagated to split parts. These attributes are not * used by the BSP-tree algorithms themselves, so the application can * use them for any purpose. Since the tree visiting method holds * internal and leaf nodes differently, it is possible to use * different classes for internal nodes attributes and leaf nodes * attributes. This should be used with care, though, because if the * tree is modified in any way after attributes have been set, some * internal nodes may become leaf nodes and some leaf nodes may become * internal nodes.

*

One of the main sources for the development of this package was * Bruce Naylor, John Amanatides and William Thibault paper Merging * BSP Trees Yields Polyhedral Set Operations Proc. Siggraph '90, * Computer Graphics 24(4), August 1990, pp 115-124, published by the * Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).
