Removed tight connections between data structures, auxiliary tools and algorithms in order to create extensible solution, easy for maintenance and improvements;
Code is separated on several functional units responsible for specific operation for the sake of simplification of debugging and readability;
Introduced new data structures enabling possibility to manipulate discrete model of particular entity (edge, wire, face) in order to perform computations locally instead of processing an entire model.
The workflow of updated component can be divided on six parts:
* Creation of model data structure: source TopoDS_Shape passed to algorithm is analyzed and exploded on faces and edges. For each topological entity corresponding reflection is created in data model. Note that underlying algorithms use data model as input and access it via common interface which allows user to create custom data model with necessary dependencies between particular entities;
* Discretize edges 3D & 2D curves: 3D curve as well as associated set of 2D curves of each model edge is discretized in order to create coherent skeleton used as a base in faces meshing process. In case if some edge of source shape already contains polygonal data which suites specified parameters, it is extracted from shape and stored to the model as is. Each edge is processed separately, adjacency is not taken into account;
* Heal discrete model: source TopoDS_Shape can contain problems, such as open-wire or self-intersections, introduced during design, exchange or modification of model. In addition, some problems like self-intersections can be introduced by roughly discretized edges. This stage is responsible for analysis of discrete model in order to detect and repair faced problems or refuse model’s part for further processing in case if problem cannot be solved;
* Preprocess discrete model: defines actions specific for implemented approach to be performed before meshing of faces. By default, iterates over model faces and checks consistency of existing triangulations. Cleans topological faces and its adjacent edges from polygonal data in case of inconsistency or marks face of discrete model as not required for computation;
* Discretize faces: represents core part performing mesh generation for particular face based on 2D discrete data related to processing face. Caches polygonal data associated with face’s edges in data model for further processing and stores generated mesh to TopoDS_Face;
* Postprocess discrete model: defines actions specific for implemented approach to be performed after meshing of faces. By default, stores polygonal data obtained on previous stage to TopoDS_Edge objects of source model.
Component is now spread over IMeshData, IMeshTools, BRepMeshData and BRepMesh units.
<!break>
1. Extend "tricheck" DRAW-command in order to find degenerated triangles.
2. Class BRepMesh_FastDiscret::Parameters has been declared as deprecated.
3. NURBS range splitter: do not split intervals without necessity. Intervals are split only in case if it is impossible to compute normals directly on intervals.
4. Default value of IMeshTools_Parameters::MinSize has been changed. New value is equal to 0.1*Deflection.
5. Correction of test scripts:
1) perf mesh bug27119: requested deflection is increased from 1e-6 to 1e-5 to keep reasonable performance (but still reproducing original issue)
2) bugs mesh bug26692_1, 2: make snapshot of triangulation instead of wireframe (irrelevant)
Correction in upgrade guide.
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.
1) Reduce the number of calls to malloc by grouping requests to larger blocks. To achieve this goal, the following ways are used:
- Containers of types sequence, list and map are initialized with an instance of NCollection_IncAllocator, at this taking care of the time of life of allocated objects, so that not to occupy huge amount of memory.
- Allocation of several arrays having the same and short life time is changed so that to allocate a buffer array of necessary size and to place arrays in this buffer.
2) In BRepMesh_FastDiscretFace, optimize the function filterParameters so that to avoid excess memory allocations.
3) In NCollection_CellFilter, change declaration of the method Reset to accept array by reference rather than by value.
4) Add Allocator() method in map, sequence and vector collection classes by analogy with list collection.
5) Correct the size of block for IncAllocator for x64 platform. In order free-ed block to be returned to the system its size should be at least 1024K on x64 and 512K on x86. This allows to retain free virtual space almost to the state before algorithm run.
6) Decrease amount of memory zeroed by calloc. For that, reduce theIncrement parameter of the embedded vectors of the classes NCollection_UBTreeFiller and BRepMesh_VertexInspector to default value 256.
7) Avoid computing bounding box when not necessary (if no relative deflection is used)
8) Cycles by wires of face using TopExp_Explorer are converted to use TopoDS_Iterator instead.
9) BRepMesh_FastDiscret::Add optimized to avoid storing sequences of faces and edges
10) The tests "mesh standard_* W7" are corrected to accept the new behavior. Earlier the following error took place:
Not connected mesh inside face 9
{12 13}
Now this error was replaced with another one:
free nodes (in pairs: face / node):
{9 12}
Actually it is not a regression, rather improvement, if we look at the snapshot.
11) Change other test cases to their actual state.
Don't create data structures for whole set of faces. Necessary structures are created directly in BRepMesh_FastDiscret.
Don't copy nodes data during scaling, single structure is used.
