Algorithm (Workflow)
This function, SGCaddVLFL, is designed to add a solid geometry to a container. It is part of the SG-Library and was created by Tim Lueth. The function is similar to SGCaddSG but specifically supports vertex lists (VL) and facet lists (FL).
Input Parameters
- C: This is the solid geometry container to which the new geometry will be added.
- VL: This is the vertex list of the solid geometry. It contains the coordinates of the vertices that define the shape.
- FL: This is the facet list of the solid geometry. It defines the connections between vertices to form the faces of the geometry.
Output Results
- SGC: This is the updated solid geometry container that now includes the new geometry defined by the vertex and facet lists.
Algorithm Steps
- The function begins by creating a structure
SG with two fields: VL and FL. These fields are assigned the input parameters VL and FL, respectively.
- The function then calls another function,
SGCaddSG, passing the solid geometry container SGC and the newly created structure SG as arguments.
- The result of the
SGCaddSG function call is assigned back to SGC, effectively updating the container with the new solid geometry.
The function is straightforward and relies on the SGCaddSG function to handle the actual addition of the geometry to the container. The purpose of SGCaddVLFL is to provide a convenient interface for adding geometries defined by vertex and facet lists.
