SPAcstr Global Function api_make_ewire

outcome api_make_ewire(	int	`num_edges`,
	EDGE*[]	`edges`,
	BODY*&	`body`,
	AcisOptions*	`ao`	`= NULL` )

Creates a body that consists a single wire from a list of edges that are connected in the order given with no branching.

Role: This API creates a BODY that consists of a single WIRE. The COEDGEs are created from the EDGEs in the edge list of the wire. Duplicate VERTEXs between adjacent edges are deleted. The edges are assumed to form a C1 continuous curve that is not self-intersecting. The edges may be open or closed.

A single point wire can be made. However, such wires are not fully supported by Booleans and offsetting.

Errors: Pointer in edge array is NULL or not to an EDGE.

Limitations: Wires that are in single isolated point (characterized by an edge with null geometry) are not fully supported.

Effect: Changes model

Journal: Available

Parameters:

num_edges: number of edges in list.
edges: list of edges.
body: created wire body returned.
ao: acis options.
