IGESControl_Writer Class Reference

This class creates and writes IGES files from CAS.CADE models. An IGES file can be written to an existing IGES file or to a new one. The translation can be performed in one or several operations. Each translation operation outputs a distinct root entity in the IGES file. To write an IGES file it is possible to use the following sequence: To modify the IGES file header or to change translation parameters it is necessary to use class Interface_Static (see IGESParameters and GeneralParameters).

Detailed Description

This class creates and writes IGES files from CAS.CADE models. An IGES file can be written to an existing IGES file or to a new one. The translation can be performed in one or several operations. Each translation operation outputs a distinct root entity in the IGES file. To write an IGES file it is possible to use the following sequence: To modify the IGES file header or to change translation parameters it is necessary to use class Interface_Static (see IGESParameters and GeneralParameters).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

IGESControl_Writer::IGESControl_Writer ( )

Creates a writer object with the default unit (millimeters) and write mode (Face). IGESControl_Writer (const Standard_CString unit, const Standard_Integer modecr = 0);.

IGESControl_Writer::IGESControl_Writer ( const Standard_CString  unit,
const Standard_Integer  modecr = 0 
)

Creates a writer with given values for units and for write mode. unit may be any unit that is accepted by the IGES standard. By default, it is the millimeter. modecr defines the write mode and may be:

  • 0: Faces (default)
  • 1: BRep.
IGESControl_Writer::IGESControl_Writer ( const Handle< IGESData_IGESModel > &  model,
const Standard_Integer  modecr = 0 
)

Creates a writer object with the prepared IGES model model in write mode. modecr defines the write mode and may be:

  • 0: Faces (default)
  • 1: BRep.

Member Function Documentation

Standard_Boolean IGESControl_Writer::AddEntity ( const Handle< IGESData_IGESEntity > &  ent)

Adds an IGES entity (and the ones it references) to the model.

Standard_Boolean IGESControl_Writer::AddGeom ( const Handle< Standard_Transient > &  geom)

Translates a Geometry (Surface or Curve) to IGES Entities and adds them to the model Returns True if done, False if geom is neither a Surface or a Curve suitable for IGES or is null.

Standard_Boolean IGESControl_Writer::AddShape ( const TopoDS_Shape sh)

Translates a Shape to IGES Entities and adds them to the model Returns True if done, False if Shape not suitable for IGES or null.

void IGESControl_Writer::ComputeModel ( )

Computes the entities found in the model, which is ready to be written. This contrasts with the default computation of headers only.

const Handle< IGESData_IGESModel >& IGESControl_Writer::Model ( ) const
inline

Returns the IGES model to be written in output.

void IGESControl_Writer::SetTransferProcess ( const Handle< Transfer_FinderProcess > &  TP)
inline

Returns/Sets the TransferProcess : it contains final results and if some, check messages.

const Handle< Transfer_FinderProcess >& IGESControl_Writer::TransferProcess ( ) const
inline
Standard_Boolean IGESControl_Writer::Write ( Standard_OStream S,
const Standard_Boolean  fnes = Standard_False 
)

Computes then writes the model to an OStream Returns True when done, false in case of error.

Standard_Boolean IGESControl_Writer::Write ( const Standard_CString  file,
const Standard_Boolean  fnes = Standard_False 
)

Prepares and writes an IGES model either to an OStream, S or to a file name,CString. Returns True if the operation was performed correctly and False if an error occurred (for instance, if the processor could not create the file).
