OdDbSubDMesh::convertToSurface Method (bool, OdDbSubentId&, OdDbSurfacePtr&)

Syntax

C++

OdResult convertToSurface(bool bConvertAsSmooth, const OdDbSubentId& id, OdDbSurfacePtr& pSurface) const;

Parameters	Description
bool bConvertAsSmooth	[in] Specify true for converting to a smooth surface, or false for converting to a faceted surface.
const OdDbSubentId& id	[in] Sub-entity ID to convert.
OdDbSurfacePtr& pSurface	[out] Pointer to the newly created OdDbSurface object.

Value	Description
eNotImplementedYet	The method is not implemented yet for the current modeler.
eInvalidContext	The mesh is empty.
eInvalidInput	ID is not kFaceSubentType or the mesh has self-intersections or zero area faces.
eOk	The surface created successfully.

Creates a new OdDbSurface object from a part of this mesh by the specified sub-entity ID.

The mesh should not have self-intersections and zero area faces. The case when bConvertAsSmooth == true is not implemented yet.
