//! The   GeomAPI   package  provides  an  Application
//! Programming Interface for the Geometry.
//!
//! The API is a set of  classes and methods aiming to
//! provide :
//!
//! * High level and simple calls  for the most common
//! operations.
//!
//! *    Keeping   an   access  on    the    low-level
//! implementation of high-level calls.
//!
//! The API  provides classes to  call the algorithmes
//! of the Geometry
//!
//! * The  constructors  of the classes  provides  the
//! different constructions methods.
//!
//! * The  class keeps as fields the   different tools
//! used by the algorithmes
//!
//! *   The class  provides  a  casting  method to get
//! automatically the  result  with  a   function-like
//! call.
//!
//! For example to evaluate the distance <D> between a
//! point <P> and a curve <C>, one can writes :
//!
//! D = GeomAPI_ProjectPointOnCurve(P,C);
//!
//! or
//!
//! GeomAPI_ProjectPointOnCurve PonC(P,C);
//! D = PonC.LowerDistance();

  //! This function builds (in the

  //! C. The 3D curve C is considered to be located in the plane P.
  //! Warning
  //! The 3D curve C must be of one of the following types:
  //! -      a line
  //! -      a circle
  //! -      an ellipse
  //! -      a hyperbola
  //! -      a parabola
  //! -      a Bezier curve
  //! -      a BSpline curve
  //! Exceptions Standard_NoSuchObject if C is not a defined type curve.
