Synopsis
PDX_MSGT picr_Fin(long option, int model, MDA_PTR orig_db_ptr, int tag, int identifier, MDA_PTR curve, int curve_sense, MDA_PTR edge, int edge_sense, int fin_type, MDA_PTR *fin_ptr)
Purpose
Create the PINT model Fin entity.
Description
This function creates a PINT Fin entity for the given input data. The data provided must result in a valid definition. The orig_db_ptr argument should contain the database pointer of the entity that the new entity was created from (usually this should be obtained by the calling routine via mda_GetOrigDbptr) or MDA_NULL_PTR. See the mda_intro man page for more information about predecessor entities.
Input
option
PICR_VALIDATE
Validate the entity fields
PICR_NOVALIDATE
Do not validate the entity fields
model
PINT model for entity creation
identifier
Parasolid's identifier
orig_db_ptr
The original entities orig_db_ptr as obtained from the mda_GetOrigDbptr call, or MDA_NULL_PTR
tag
Parasolid tag for this entity
curve
MDA_PTR of curve for this fin
curve_sense
PINT_TRUE
The direction of the curve agrees with the fin
PINT_FALSE
The direction of the curve does not agree with the fin
edge
MDA_PTR of edge for this fin
edge_sense
PINT_TRUE
The direction of the edge agrees with the fin
PINT_FALSE
The direction of the edge does not agree with the fin
fin_type
PINT_FIN_WIRE
The fin has a sibling fin from parent edge in same loop
PINT_FIN_BIWIRE
The fin has a sibling fin in another loop
PINT_FIN_NORMAL
The fin is owned by one edge
Output
fin_ptr
