I a beginner in OpenCascade.
I have a pipe with two end faces without seam edge causing problem in my program. I used ShapeFix_face but in vain. I want to get a method to check whether a face has a seam edge or not? Can you help me.

Hi Anand,

To check whether a face contains a seamed edge, you can use API BRep_Tool::IsClosed(edge, face). That means if one edge has two pcuves in same face, that's a seamed edge. If you think the face should contain seamed edge but it's not, you can use stitch method to fix this problem. Stitch API is BRepOffsetAPI_Sewing.
