If you have the Shell/Faces already in the Compound and you want to take them out, use TopExp_Explorer.

I have sewed faces - the topology type of the result is Compound.
Using TopExp_Explore 'to find' SHELL' it fails.
Do I need to build a SHELL when sewing, in order to get back my SHELL using Explorer.
thanks in advance
