Same problem on 3.1.... any ideas some one ?

Hi !

I installed Open Cascade 3.1 to see if that would help but I still have the same problem, I create a BRepPrimAPI_Box shape and then I explore the faces, I get a Geom_Surface from the face and try to use D0() to evaluate a point but I only get crap so if some one could point out what I am doing wrong I would be most grateful.

In the example below the variables contain: u1=-2.0e+100 u2=2.0e+100 v1=-2.0e+100 v2=2.0e+100, these values look a bit odd to me, but if I triangulate the box it is correct.

When I use D0( u1, v1, pt), I get pt.x=0.0 pt.y=-2.0e+100 pt.z=2.0e+100, x is correct by y and z is way wrong.

When I use D0( 0´, 0), I get the correct result pt.x.y.z=0.0.

If I change the shape from a box to a sphere everything works fine....

I get the same result with 3.0 and 3.1 so I guess I am doing something wrong but what ?

 shape = BRepPrimAPI_MakeBox( 1, 1, 1);

TopExp_Explorer ex; TopTools_MapOfShape map;

for( ex.Init( shape, TopAbs_FACE); ex.More(); ex.Next()) // Iterate over all faces {

const TopoDS_Shape& shp = ex.Current();

TopLoc_Location loc;

assert( shp.ShapeType() == TopAbs_FACE);

TopoDS_Face face = TopoDS::Face( shp);

if( map.Add( face))

{

const Handle(Geom_Surface)& surf = BRep_Tool::Surface( face);

double u1, u2, v1, v2;

surf->Bounds( u1, u2, v1, v2);

gp_Pnt px;

surf->D0( u1, v1, px); // 0,-2e100,2e100

surf->D0( 0.0, 0.0, px); // 0,0,0 ok!

} }
