The algorithm that builds outlines ("silhouettes") makes an outline in 2d parametric space of the surface starting from some previously detected point where normal is orthogonal to direction of view. So, the surface is previously discretized into (m*n) sample points and some of them become starting points for future outlines.
If the surface has non-uniform parametrization and/or some local extremums of curvature, the outlines can not be built without breaks, so there are several groups of consequent outlines in this case. Unfortunately, it leads to the situation when current number of sample points becomes insufficient to build all the parts of outlines.
The idea is to detect the "holes" between already constructed parts of outlines and then complete the construction.
New auxiliary draw command for testing of HLR.
Correction according to the remarks.
Update of test case according to the developer's directive
1. The reason of the regression is not-closed intersection result. This problem has been solved (in this fix) by adding joint point to the both neighbors intersection lines (lines were extended to the this intersection point). It is made in IntPatch_WLineTool::ExtendTwoWlinesToEachOther(...) method.
2. Interface of IntPatch_PointLine and inherited classes has been changed. Methods ChangeVertex(...) and RemoveVertex(...) have been added.
Test cases for this issue have been created.
Small correction in the code.
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
