8366,"""Overlay invalid input exception"" (3)",Volker Schöch <vschoech@…>,Barend Gehrels,"Please find below some code that triggers ""Overlay invalid input exception"" (in the last statement of the example). I have a couple of different reproductions, and since I'm not sure if they all share the same root cause, I'm filing them in separate tickets.

As always, my polygon type is oriented '''counter-clockwise''' and '''not closed''', my point type is based on '''int'''.

This is the data that triggers the exception:

{{{
_intPolygon polygon( ""MULTIPOLYGON(((529 998,5337 998,5337 3475,529 3475)))"" );
{
       _intPolygon const polygonB = _intPolygon(""MULTIPOLYGON(((528 3314,1734 2054,2934 1670,4140 1754,5340 2072,5340 32767,528 32767)))"") ^ _intPolygon(""MULTIPOLYGON(((528 3218,1734 1784,2934 1400,4140 2582,5340 1832,5340 32767,528 32767)))"");

This is my code that wraps boost::geometry to implement the operators used above:

{{{
template<typename T>
template<typename Geometry>
_TPolygon< T > _TPolygon< T >::operator-(Geometry const& geometry) const
{
       // should not be necessary
       //if( boost::geometry::area(geometry)==0 ) return *this;

       _TPolygon< T > polygonOut;
       boost::geometry::difference(*this, geometry, polygonOut);

       // should not be necessary
       //boost::geometry::correct( polygonOut );

       return polygonOut;
}

template<typename T>
template<typename Geometry>
_TPolygon<T>& _TPolygon< T >::operator-=(Geometry const& geometry)
{
       // boost::geometry::difference cannot operate in-place
       // http://lists.boost.org/geometry/2012/02/1796.php
       *this = *this - geometry;
       return *this;
}

       boost::geometry::sym_difference(*this, geometry, polygonOut);

       // should not be necessary
       //boost::geometry::correct( polygonOut );

       return polygonOut;
