[Insight-developers] about mesh structure

[Miller, James V (CRD)]

If I understand the Mesh class, it should work like the image class where each "point" contains a
certain data type.  This data type could contain both a vector and a normal.  This sounds like what
you are looking for.

What you probably cannot do is a have some points have a vector and some other points have a normal
and some have both a vector and a normal.  Every point needs to have the same "pixel type".

Sorry, maybe I did not make myself clear enough.
In itkmesh, there is object:pointdatacontainer, which store the data
associate with the mesh's points.
In my application of the deformable model, points in the mesh may be
associated with more than one
kind of data. For instance, I hope to store both the force vector and the
normal vector at each point in the mesh.
However, there is only one pointdatacontainer defined in the itkmesh, so I
am wondering if it is possible
to store more than one data associated with the point in itkmesh?
