.. cpp:class:: MeshPartitioning

    This class partitions and distributes a mesh based on
    partitioned local mesh data.The local mesh data will also be
    repartitioned and redistributed during the computation of the
    mesh partitioning.
    
    After partitioning, each process has a local mesh and some data
    that couples the meshes together.


    .. cpp:function:: static void build_distributed_mesh(Mesh& mesh)
    
        Build a distributed mesh from a local mesh on process 0


    .. cpp:function:: static void build_distributed_mesh(Mesh& mesh, const std::vector<int>& cell_partition, const std::string ghost_mode)
    
        Build a distributed mesh from a local mesh on process 0, with
        distribution of cells supplied (destination processes for each
        cell)


    .. cpp:function:: static void build_distributed_mesh(Mesh& mesh, const LocalMeshData& data, const std::string ghost_mode)
    
        Build a distributed mesh from 'local mesh data' that is
        distributed across processes


    .. cpp:function:: static void build_distributed_value_collection(MeshValueCollection<T>& values, const LocalMeshValueCollection<T>& local_data, const Mesh& mesh)
    
        Build a MeshValueCollection based on LocalMeshValueCollection
