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.
Unstable test cases were reviewed
Modified test cases using checktrend command
Modified test cases for Linux platform
Modified test cases for Debug mode
In parallel mode, limit number of jobs in the queue to avoid slowdown occurring with long queues
Obsolete DRAW tools removed
Improvement of processing of test log:
- log is collected as list and not as string for better performance
- short table of test cases (TOC) is added in HTML log
- algorithm to combine test cases in one row in HTML log is improved to avoid long lines (group bugs)
Parse rules corrected to ignore irrelevant debug messages, and to correctly report tests 3rdparty export as skipped or BAD when Gl2Ps is missing or is built in incompatible mode on windows
Tests corrected to pass in Debug mode on Windows
A new counter MemHeapUsage was added to OSD_MemInfo class to examine program heap size
DRAW command meminfo got new option -h (--heap ) to use new counter data
The following testcases were changed to use new option -h of DRAW command meminfo
myCounters[MemHeapUsage] now will always be refilled every time the OSD_MemInfo::Update() function is called.
Fixed testcases to use meminfo -h instead of meminfo -w to detect memory leaks more properly.
Test case tests/bugs/modalg/dxf906 was renamed to bug889
Adding test cases to tests/bugs/moddata
Modified expressions puts [checkshape result]. Added command vzfit in end file in folder bugs. Unlocked command coordload in QABugs_3.cxx
Modified test case bugs vis buc60738
Added test cases to modalg and moddata
Added test cases to caf and fclasses
Added test cases to group heal
