Various performance improvements in STEP read/write algorithms:
- Search for the label of a shape or component shape is improved using map mechanism instead of brute force iteration.
- Invariant FindEntities() is moved out of the loop in the method getStyledItem in STEPCAFControl/STEPCAFControl_Writer.cxx.
- A pointer to the end of binders chain is added in Transfer_Binder class to speed up adding a binder to the chain.
- Small fixes are added to eliminate excess copying of handles, calls of handle DownCasts and so on.
Stack overflow is removed during destruction of STEP model with long chains of Transfer_Binder.
It is possible to use the Draw commands ReadStep and WriteStep to read/write from the session without accessing the disk file (use '.' for the file name).
Performance test cases for STEP reading/writing have been added.
Macro NO_CXX_EXCEPTION was removed from code.
Method Raise() was replaced by explicit throw statement.
Method Standard_Failure::Caught() was replaced by normal C++mechanism of exception transfer.
Method Standard_Failure::Caught() is deprecated now.
Eliminated empty constructors.
Updated samples.
Eliminate empty method ChangeValue from NCollection_Map class.
Removed not operable methods from NCollection classes.
Automatic upgrade of OCCT code by command "occt_upgrade . -nocdl":
- WOK-generated header files from inc and sources from drv are moved to src
- CDL files removed
- All packages are converted to nocdlpack
License statement text corrected; compiler warnings caused by Bison 2.41 disabled for MSVC; a few other compiler warnings on 54-bit Windows eliminated by appropriate type cast
Wrong license statements corrected in several files.
Copyright and license statements added in XSD and GLSL files.
Copyright year updated in some files.
Obsolete documentation files removed from DrawResources.
