class Copy from BRepBuilderAPI inherits ModifyShape from BRepBuilderAPI

	---Purpose: Duplication of a shape.
    	-- A Copy object provides a framework for:
    	-- -   defining the construction of a duplicate shape,
    	-- -   implementing the construction algorithm, and
    	-- -   consulting the result.
        
uses
    Shape             from TopoDS,
    Face              from TopoDS,
    ShapeModification from BRepBuilderAPI,

	---Purpose: Constructs an empty copy framework. Use the function
    	-- Perform to copy shapes.

    Create(S: Shape from TopoDS; copyGeom: Boolean = Standard_True)
	---Purpose: Constructs a copy framework and copies the shape S.
    	-- Use the function Shape to access the result.
    	-- If copyGeom is False, only topological objects will be copied, while 
    	-- geometry will be shared with original shape.
    	-- Note: the constructed framework can be reused to copy
    	-- other shapes: just specify them with the function Perform.
