17class FindPlane from BRepBuilderAPI
18
19 ---Purpose: Describes functions to find the plane in which the edges
20 -- of a given shape are located.
21 -- A FindPlane object provides a framework for:
22 -- - extracting the edges of a given shape,
23 -- - implementing the construction algorithm, and
24 -- - consulting the result.

37 Create
38 returns FindPlane from BRepBuilderAPI;
39 ---Purpose: Initializes an empty algorithm. The function Init is then used to define the shape.

41 Create (S : Shape from TopoDS;
42 Tol : Real from Standard = -1)
43 returns FindPlane from BRepBuilderAPI;
44 ---Purpose: Constructs the plane containing the edges of the shape S.
45 -- A plane is built only if all the edges are within a distance
46 -- of less than or equal to tolerance from a planar surface.
47 -- This tolerance value is equal to the larger of the following two values:
48 -- - Tol, where the default value is negative, or
49 -- - the largest of the tolerance values assigned to the individual edges of S.
50 -- Use the function Found to verify that a plane is built.
51 -- The resulting plane is then retrieved using the function Plane.

56 ---Purpose: Constructs the plane containing the edges of the shape S.
57 -- A plane is built only if all the edges are within a distance
58 -- of less than or equal to tolerance from a planar surface.
59 -- This tolerance value is equal to the larger of the following two values:
60 -- - Tol, where the default value is negative, or
61 -- - the largest of the tolerance values assigned to the individual edges of S.
62 -- Use the function Found to verify that a plane is built.
63 -- The resulting plane is then retrieved using the function Plane.

65 Found(me)
66 returns Boolean from Standard;
67 ---Purpose: Returns true if a plane containing the edges of the
68 -- shape is found and built. Use the function Plane to consult the result.
69 Plane(me)
70 returns mutable Plane from Geom;
71 ---Purpose: Returns the plane containing the edges of the shape.
72 -- Warning
73 -- Use the function Found to verify that the plane is built. If
74 -- a plane is not found, Plane returns a null handle.
