tigl::CTiglPatchShell Class Reference

The CTiglPatchShell class can be used to create watertight geometries and solids from a TopoDS_Shell consisting of several faces. Side Caps for holes can be added by supplying the boundary of the hole as a TopoDS_Wire. By Default the algorithm tries to make a solid. Use SetMakeSolid(false) to make a closed shell. More...

Detailed Description

The CTiglPatchShell class can be used to create watertight geometries and solids from a TopoDS_Shell consisting of several faces. Side Caps for holes can be added by supplying the boundary of the hole as a TopoDS_Wire. By Default the algorithm tries to make a solid. Use SetMakeSolid(false) to make a closed shell.

Member Function Documentation

AddSideCap()

void tigl::CTiglPatchShell::AddSideCap

(

TopoDS_Wire const &

boundaryWire

)

AddSideCap lets the user add faces to the shape to close holes. This is done by providing the boundary of the hole as a wire.

Parameters

boundaryWire

the boundary of the hole that needs patching

PatchedShape()

TopoDS_Shape tigl::CTiglPatchShell::PatchedShape

(

)

PatchedShape returns the patched shape calculated by the algorithm.

Returns

the patched shape

Perform()

void tigl::CTiglPatchShell::Perform ( )

private

Perform contains the main algorithm.

SetMakeSolid()

void tigl::CTiglPatchShell::SetMakeSolid ( bool enabled = true )

inline

Determine, whether the resulting shape shall be a solid or a closed shell.

Parameters

enabled

boolean whether to create a solid or not
