In the NX OPEN C ++ library, is there an interface to divide the model into triangular patches?

Question

I am using the NX OPEN C ++ library, I need to divide the model in the PART file into small triangles, but I have not found the relevant API for many days. Does such an API exist?

Answer 1

There is no such API function / call directly, but, as a workaround you can perform a "STL Export", and then read the output file according to it's specification, it's pretty straightforward.

The STL export API calls must be named UFStd.OpenBinaryStlFile and UFStd.PutSolidInStlFile or somehow.
