Detailed Description

Generates a polygonal mesh for a B-Rep body.

The mesh generator can operate on an entire model, a subtree of a model element, or a particular B-Rep body/shape. It can also generate only a visualization mesh.

The following example demonstrates how to use the mesh generator.

Compute tessellation for all B-Rep bodies in the model using the mesh generator:

ModelData::Model aModel = ...;
MeshGenerator aMeshGenerator;
aMeshGenerator.Generate (aModel);
