OdGeExternalBoundedSurface Class

Class Hierarchy

Syntax

C++

class OdGeExternalBoundedSurface : public OdGeSurface;

File

GeExternalBoundedSurface.h

Description

This class represents bounded surfaces, whose definitions are external to the OdGe library.

Remarks

Each instance of ns OdGeExternalBoundedSurface is comprosed of an instance of an OdExternalSurface and a collection of instances of OdGeCurveBoundary.

OdGeExternalBoundedSurface instances can be treated as any other OdGeSurface.

You can access the OdGeExternalBoundedSurface as a corresponding native OdGeSurface, if such a corresponding surface exists, or you may (more efficiently) access the external data in its native form.

One example of using OdGeExternalBoundedSurface is to access an ACIS surface.

Corresponding C++ library: TD_Ge
