Hey,
i was looking at port of Delaunay triangulation. and came to know some of
these stuff:
i looked at the method signatures from the javadoc for JTS, and saw these
signatures in the headers files 'libgeos/include/geos/triangulate'. And
their implementation in 'libgeos/src/triangulate'. And also noticed some of
the methods in QuadEdgeSubdivision.h were missing. I think there were
mainly related to voronoi cell.

I was searching for JTS's source code on git hub, and didn't find the code
for Delaunay triangulation. in 'com.vividsolutions.jts' directory i
couldn't find the triangulate directory. Where can i find that?
Can you provide me a link where i can find JTS triangulation source code?

And yes i understand the memory management problems in c/c++ that can
happen.

Thanks,
Vishal
