17class MakePolygon from BRepBuilderAPI inherits MakeShape from BRepBuilderAPI
18
19 ---Purpose: Describes functions to build polygonal wires. A
20 -- polygonal wire can be built from any number of points
21 -- or vertices, and consists of a sequence of connected
22 -- rectilinear edges.
23 -- When a point or vertex is added to the polygon if
24 -- it is identic to the previous point no edge is
25 -- built. The method added can be used to test it.
26 -- Construction of a Polygonal Wire
27 -- You can construct:
28 -- - a complete polygonal wire by defining all its points
29 -- or vertices (limited to four), or
30 -- - an empty polygonal wire and add its points or
31 -- vertices in sequence (unlimited number).
32 -- A MakePolygon object provides a framework for:
33 -- - initializing the construction of a polygonal wire,
34 -- - adding points or vertices to the polygonal wire under construction, and
35 -- - consulting the result.

48 Create
49 returns MakePolygon from BRepBuilderAPI;
50 ---Purpose: Initializes an empty polygonal wire, to which points or
51 -- vertices are added using the Add function.
52 -- As soon as the polygonal wire under construction
53 -- contains vertices, it can be consulted using the Wire function.

66 ---Level: Public
67 returns MakePolygon from BRepBuilderAPI;
68 ---Purpose: Constructs a polygonal wire from 2, 3 or 4 points. Vertices are
69 -- automatically created on the given points. The polygonal wire is
70 -- closed if Close is true; otherwise it is open. Further vertices can
71 -- be added using the Add function. The polygonal wire under
72 -- construction can be consulted at any time by using the Wire function.
73 -- Example
74 -- //an open polygon from four points
75 -- TopoDS_Wire W = BRepBuilderAPI_MakePolygon(P1,P2,P3,P4);
76 -- Warning: The process is equivalent to:
77 -- - initializing an empty polygonal wire,
78 -- - and adding the given points in sequence.
79 -- Consequently, be careful when using this function: if the
80 -- sequence of points p1 - p2 - p1 is found among the arguments of the
81 -- constructor, you will create a polygonal wire with two
82 -- consecutive coincident edges.

95 ---Level: Public
96 returns MakePolygon from BRepBuilderAPI;
97 ---Purpose: Constructs a polygonal wire from
98 -- 2, 3 or 4 vertices. The polygonal wire is closed if Close is true;
99 -- otherwise it is open (default value). Further vertices can be
100 -- added using the Add function. The polygonal wire under
101 -- construction can be consulted at any time by using the Wire function.
102 -- Example
103 -- //a closed triangle from three vertices
104 -- TopoDS_Wire W = BRepBuilderAPI_MakePolygon(V1,V2,V3,Standard_True);
105 -- Warning
106 -- The process is equivalent to:
107 -- - initializing an empty polygonal wire,
108 -- - then adding the given points in sequence.
109 -- So be careful, as when using this function, you could create a
110 -- polygonal wire with two consecutive coincident edges if
111 -- the sequence of vertices v1 - v2 - v1 is found among the
112 -- constructor's arguments.

118 Add(me : in out; V : Vertex from TopoDS)
119 ---Level: Public
120 is static;
121 --- Purpose:
122 -- Adds the point P or the vertex V at the end of the
123 -- polygonal wire under construction. A vertex is
124 -- automatically created on the point P.
125 -- Warning
126 -- - When P or V is coincident to the previous vertex,
127 -- no edge is built. The method Added can be used to
128 -- test for this. Neither P nor V is checked to verify
129 -- that it is coincident with another vertex than the last
130 -- one, of the polygonal wire under construction. It is
131 -- also possible to add vertices on a closed polygon
132 -- (built for example by using a constructor which
133 -- declares the polygon closed, or after the use of the Close function).
134 -- Consequently, be careful using this function: you might create:
135 -- - a polygonal wire with two consecutive coincident edges, or
136 -- - a non manifold polygonal wire.
137 -- - P or V is not checked to verify if it is
138 -- coincident with another vertex but the last one, of
139 -- the polygonal wire under construction. It is also
140 -- possible to add vertices on a closed polygon (built
141 -- for example by using a constructor which declares
142 -- the polygon closed, or after the use of the Close function).
143 -- Consequently, be careful when using this function: you might create:
144 -- - a polygonal wire with two consecutive coincident edges, or
145 -- - a non-manifold polygonal wire.

177 -- been chained together by this construction algorithm.
