Function Documentation

A3DStatus A3DTopoItemOwnersManagerGet(const A3DRiRepresentationItem *pBrepOwner, A3DTopoItemOwnersManager **ppTopoItemOwnersManager)

Structure for storing topology items owners.

Creates manager of topology items fron an A3DRiRepresentationItem

Version

5.0 Methods and structures dedicated to managing the link between topology items and their owner(s).

This function creates a map, on request, between topological items and linked lists of owners. When the map is built, the function A3DTopoItemOwnersGet lets you retrieve owners of specific topological item. For example, if you need the faces owner of edges, first you build your map, then you retrieve the owner list for each edge. The following code shows how to use it.

// map creation
A3DTopoItemOwnersManager* pTopologyOwnersManager = NULL;
if(A3DTopoItemOwnersManagerGet(pBrepOwner, pTopologyOwnersManager) != A3D_SUCCESS)
    return A3D_ERROR;
if(pTopologyOwnersManager == NULL)
    return A3D_ERROR;

// edge owners = CoEdge
A3DTopoItemOwner* pOwningCoEdge = NULL;
A3DTopoItemOwnersGet(pTopologyOwnersManager, pEdge, pOwningCoEdge);
while( pOwningCoEdge!=NULL)
{
    // coedge owners = Loop
    A3DTopoItemOwner* pOwningLoop = NULL;
    A3DTopoItemOwnersGet(pTopologyOwnersManager, pOwningCoEdge->m_pTopoItem, pOwningLoop);
    while( pOwningLoop!=NULL)
    {
        // Loop owners = face
        A3DTopoItemOwner* pOwingFace = NULL;
        A3DTopoItemOwnersGet(pTopologyOwnersManager, pOwningLoop->m_pTopoItem, pOwingFace);
        while( pOwingFace!=NULL)
        {
            if(A3DEntityGetType(pOwingFace->m_pTopoItem, &entityType) != A3D_SUCCESS)
                return A3D_ERROR;
            if(entityType != kA3DTypeTopoFace)
                return A3D_ERROR;

            pOwingFace = pOwingFace->m_pNext;
        }
        pOwningLoop = pOwningLoop->m_pNext;
    }
    pOwningCoEdge = pOwningCoEdge->m_pNext;
}

Note that, if A3DTopoItemOwnersManagerGet is called several times with the same representation item, the map is not recomputed; and if the representation item is null, the map is released.
