1. Extrema algorithm calls Curve-surface intersector. This intersector returns flag about infinite solution (in spite of extrema's returning not-parallel status correctly - axes of considered cylinder and circle are not parallel). In this case, attempt of obtaining number of intersection points leads to exception.
So, the fix adds check of infinite solution after the intersection algorithm.
2. The methods IsDone(), IsParallel(), NbExt(), SquareDistance() and Points() (of Extrema_* classes) have been corrected to make them consistent to the documentation.
3. Revision of some Extrema_* classes has been made in order to avoid places with uninitialized variables.
4. Currently Extrema does not store any points in case when the arguments are parallel. It stores the distance only.
5. Some cases on Extrema-algo have been moved from "fclasses"-group to "modalg"-group.
Strengthening of the criteria of the parallel status of the curves by additional checking if the ends of the curves do not diverge.
Test cases for the issue.
The usage of *BRepAlgo_Section* has been replaced with the usage of *BRepAlgoAPI_Section* in *BRepProj_Projection* algorithm.
The TODO statements have been removed from the failing test case in the "prj" grid as they are working correctly now.
The following changes have been made to improve the performance *BRepAlgoAPI_Section*:
1. Revision of the *IntPolyh_Intersection* class to avoid repeated calculation of the deflection of the same triangulation.
2. Small revision of the Edge/Face intersection algorithm to perform Extrema computation on the whole intersection range of the edge instead of discrete ranges.
3. Implementation of the extrema computation for the Circle and Sphere.
4. Correct computation of the parameter of the point on the Circle.
In the algorithm math_FunctionRoots, improve the case when it is needed to find the extremum of the function. Earlier, to solve this task the method of gold section was used. With the patch, firstly the algorithm tries to find zero value of the derivative function. In most cases it gives precise result. Secondly, the algorithm tries to find zero value of the function using the old approach. The algorithm chooses the best solution among two computed by different methods.
In the method PutStickPavesOnCurve of BOPAlgo_PaveFiller, forbid putting a vertex to the end of the curve if this end already has a vertex assigned to it. This allows getting rid of unwanted colliding of vertices.
In the method UpdatePaveBlocks of BOPAlgo_PaveFiller, make the check for micro edges more precise.
New category of tests "lowalgos" has been added. Tests for low level algorithms are to be put there. "2dinter" is a new group of tests in this category.
Introduction of the new key for "2dintersect" command, allowing printing the intersection state for each point.
It has the following syntax now:
"2dintersect curve1 [curve2] [-tol tol] [-state]"
Options:
-tol - allows changing the intersection tolerance (default value is 1.e-3);
-state - allows printing the intersection state for each point.
Correct the test case bugs/modalg_7/bug28274 to make proper checks of the result.
