I deal with this a lot in 3ds Max. Perhaps you could take a look how editable splines work, and that may be of help.

At this stage I am not interested in reading other people's code! ^_^
And I need the (working) algorithm in my .NET app.. I would be interested in a .NET C# library manipulating geometry.. But I can't find any..
(the only one I know is some GIS I forgot the name, and they only deal in polygon, not shape and their API is convoluted...)

A slight misunderstanding.I wasn't talking about the code but the understanding of behavior of editable spline objects and their properties, i/e axis orientation of vertices within the spline (where during intersection X and Y axis can be swapped), managing direction of IDs (i/e clockwise vs counterclockwise on a circle), and welding function (which, as the name says) welds two vertices into one using the area concept (maximum allowed distance between two vertices so no unwanted vertices get welded), for the purpose of avoiding problems like the one you encountered, which are quite common in the world of 3D graphic. For the past 23 years of my experience with CAD and 3D software I have seen my share of weird things, and I have an understanding that I thought might be useful.
Basically, I am trying to point you think in the right direction, nothing more.
Have fun.

To be fair I had trouble understanding your explanation...
I think I found the fix (while day dreaming during latest work meeting just now)(this is for a pet home project).
Each intersection vertex need a bool Crossing flag.
When I merge 2 vertices (because of close proximity), crossing should be updated with an Xor of both values.

A, I see, this is exactly how it works and what I tried to explain. Boolean Crossing is the function that counts vertices (initialize), labels them, determines the intersection (input), determines which object "cuts" which (direction) and executes crossing by creating the new object.
Here's a graphic representation of what I tried to explain, even now it's not so important, and here's the "disappearing" vertex example. XOR (I believe) deals with the very issue.
I'm glad the solution was so simple, I'm not a programmer (at least I don't dare call myself one) so I wasn't aware of the existing classes and functions, that'd save us a lot of talk. Oh well, at least you got a visual representation of how it works and a better understanding.
So, voodoo exorcised!
Keep it goin' and have fun m8

It happened to me once and i had a too long time to discover the problem.
i was using ADO.Net, and connecting a textbox.text to a field in the table, and that field is int16, and i was trying to save into it an int64, and while the number value is small, but still, the textbox did not have its text changed, it always stayed a null.
after the yoricka came  , i changed/or casted the int64 to int16, and it worked.
so, check if there is a conversion happening here or there.
Regards.

Haha this is not it! 
I think I get it ... (since it's gonna be hard to fix I left the fix (test) to later)
When I merge 2 intersection close to each other (for numerical reason), sometimes the resulting point is not an intersection (despite having for segment attached to it) but just a touch...
Will have to put that in...

9 times out of 10 this type of issue is related to only a few of things. 1) Something isn't being properly initialized (especially common in loops; where do you initialize/reset conditions) 2) you are calling routines and not careful about parameter passing (value vs reference) 3) You've an error that for some reason is "swallowed". My first week on my current job I added an Unhandled Exception Handler to a troublesome Windows Service. It was very enlightening. 4) the Context has changed between your calculation loop and the validation (have seen issues with the same name used in different namespaces and the code was actually executing 2 different code sets)
This are a bear to track down. Often the best way to find the bug is swallow your pride and get a junior person to sit with you and explain your code to him. The 2nd set of eyes, rethinking the code as you explain it and sometimes "dumb" questions will highlight your problem. I ate crow recently after swearing my code was solid and it "had" to be a data issue, a code review with a person my junior caused me to spot the bad code I had passed over 100 times while trying to fix the bug.

"Smart" Toilet???
got something against IOT??

So that would be a IOToilet ?

Sounds like a another damn tax (4)

Do they celebrate cinco de mayo (May 5th) anywhere else in the world besides Terxas?
The holiday is in remembrance of the battle of Puebla when the indigenous Mexican forces defeated the French and began their quest for independence from France.

Not here in Wales - but then, we have very few indigenous Mexicans ...

We celebrate the 5th of may, but in a different way, over here in the Netherlands it is "Bevrijdingsdag" (liberation day).
Also we just had two minutes of silence at 20 h to remember the fallen.
Of course we will never forget the allied soldiers that liberated our country during the second world war !
