GeomAPI Class Reference

The GeomAPI package provides an Application
Programming Interface for the Geometry.

The API is a set of classes and methods aiming to
provide :

* High level and simple calls for the most common
operations.

* Keeping an access on the low-level
implementation of high-level calls.


The API provides classes to call the algorithmes
of the Geometry

* The constructors of the classes provides the
different constructions methods.

* The class keeps as fields the different tools
used by the algorithmes

* The class provides a casting method to get
automatically the result with a function-like
call.

For example to evaluate the distance <D> between a
point. More...

static Handle_Geom2d_Curve To2d (const Handle< Geom_Curve > &C, const gp_Pln &P)
 To intersect a curve and a surface.
//! This function builds (in the
parametric space of the plane P) a 2D curve equivalent to the 3D curve
C. The 3D curve C is considered to be located in the plane P.
Warning
The 3D curve C must be of one of the following types:

static Handle_Geom_Curve To3d (const Handle< Geom2d_Curve > &C, const gp_Pln &P)
 Builds a 3D curve equivalent to the 2D curve C
described in the parametric space defined by the local
coordinate system of plane P.
The resulting 3D curve is of the same nature as that of the curve C.


Detailed Description

and a curve , one can writes :

D = GeomAPI_ProjectPointOnCurve(P,C);

or

GeomAPI_ProjectPointOnCurve PonC(P,C);
D = PonC.LowerDistance();
