class  GeomAPI_ExtremaCurveSurface
 Describes functions for computing all the extrema
between a curve and a surface.
An ExtremaCurveSurface algorithm minimizes or
maximizes the distance between a point on the curve
and a point on the surface. Thus, it computes start
and end points of perpendiculars common to the
curve and the surface (an intersection point is not an
extremum except where the curve and the surface
are tangential at this point).
Solutions consist of pairs of points, and an extremum
is considered to be a segment joining the two points of a solution.
An ExtremaCurveSurface object provides a framework for:
