ConnectiveGeometry Class

A class for geometry formed of several geometry sections. Geometry is initialized with polygon geometry and then can be extended by calling one of AddLeg methods using BentPlateGeometrySolver class. In the case of success, two polygon geometries will be connected by cylindrical surface geometry possibly with help of additional polygon geometries. Resulted geometry, then, can be set to bent plate.

Methods

	Name	Description
	GetConnection	Returns 2 connecting line segments between geometrySection1 and geometrySection2 sections, if sections are connected, otherwise returns empty list.
	GetGeometryEnumerator	Gets a new geometry sections enumerator for enumerating through the geometry sections.
	GetGeometryLegSections	Gets geometry end GeometrySections which are possible to remove.
	GetNeighborSections	Gets neighbor sections of the geometrySection inside this ConnectiveGeometry.
	IsEmpty	Checks whether the geometry is degenerate
