PK_embed_curve_t

typedef int PK_embed_curve_t;


This type indicates what information is contained in a report record of type
PK_REPORT_record_type_3_c that is optionally produced by a call to
PK_CURVE_embed_in_surf_2.

PK_embed_curve_t has the values:

    PK_embed_curve_failure_c    The report states that the call failed in a
                                manner for which no further information is
                                is available.

    PK_embed_curve_success_c    The report contains the distance the returned
                                SP-curve needed to be moved in order for it to
                                remain within the limits of the surface.

    PK_embed_curve_limitation_c
                                The report states that the call failed because
                                the received SP-curve geometry is such that
                                PK_CURVE_embed_in_surf_2 is unable to adjust it
                                to remain within the limits of the surface.
                                No further information is available.

    PK_embed_curve_adjustment_c
                                The report contains a low bound on the distance
                                the received SP-curve will need to be moved in
                                order for it to remain within the limits of the
                                surface.
                                Setting this as the value of the option
                                'adjustment_limit' will improve the likelihood
                                of success, but does not guarantee it.
