SPAswp Global Function api_rsw_wire_path


outcome api_rsw_wire_path(WIRE* wire,
COEDGE* path,
sweep_options* opts=NULL )
Deprecated:
Obsolete: use api_sweep_with_options instead.

Role: Rigidly sweeps a wire along a path. This should be accomplished using api_sweep_with_options. This will accept the same wire body and path, and with the rigid sweep option set to TRUE, the same result can be obtained.

The wire can be open or closed, and it is not necessary that it be planar.

The path is specified as the first COEDGE in a closed, NULL terminated, or self-terminated (wire) COEDGE path.

Errors: Pointer to wire is NULL or not to a wire body.
 Pointer to path is NULL or not to a COEDGE.

Limitations: Even if the path is closed, a rigid sweep for an open sweep wire results in a sweep that is not closed. To work around this, use the open wire as the path and the path as the sweep wire. The API does not detect all situations which may result in an invalid body.

Effect: Changes model

Journal: Not Available

Parameters:
wire
wire to be swept.
path
sweep path.
opts
sweep options.
