OdDb3dSolid::extrudeAlongPath Method
Syntax
C++
virtual OdResult extrudeAlongPath(const OdDbRegion* region, const OdDbCurve* path, double taperAngle = 0.0);
Description
DescriptionCreates a solid by extruding a region along a path curve.
Parameters|
Parameters |
Description |
|
region |
[in] Pointer to a region object to extrude from. |
|
path |
[in] Pointer to a curve object to extrude along. Must be one of the following: |
|
taperAngle |
[in] Extrusion taper angle in radians. The value must be between 0.5*pi and -0.5*pi. Default value is 0.0. If the path represented by the OdDbCurve object is closed, the taper angle parameter is ignored. |
ReturnseOk if the extruding operation is successful or an appropriate error code if not. If the solid is null, eInvalidInput is returned.
RemarksEntity path must not have self-intersections, and it is recommended that the path does not have high curvature areas.
The following constraints are applied: |taper Angle| >= 1e-6.
This method is implemented for Spatial modeler and partially for ModelerGeometry.
The ModelerGeometry implementation returns the eNotImplementedYet status when one of the following conditions is true:
- taperAngle != 0.
- The path isn't perpendicular to the region plane at the path base point. The path base point is a point on the path that is the closest to the region center from the set of:
- All interscetion points of the region plane and the path in case when the path end point lies on the region plane.
- Path endpoints in case when both endpoints don't lie on the region plane.
- Both path endpoints lie on region plane and aren't equal.
