Detailed Description

Iterates over subshapes in a shape.

Iterator supports two usage scenario:

• iteration over direct children;
• iteration over subshapes of a specified type.

Exploration of Direct Children

To retrive direct children of a shape, ModelData_Shape::Iterator should be used as follows:

ModelData_Wire aWire = ...;
ModelData_Shape::Iterator i (aWire);
while (i.HasNext()) {
    const ModelData_Shape& aChild = i.Next(); //edge
    ModelData_Type aType = aChild.Type();
    assert (aType == ModelData_ST_Edge);
}

Exploration of particular types

To retrive children of a particular type, ModelData_Shape::Iterator should be used by specifying a type of interest as follows:

ModelData_Solid aSolid = ...;
ModelData_Shape::Iterator i (aSolid, ModelData_ST_Edge); //iterate over edges in the solid
while (i.HasNext()) {
    ModelData_Shape aChild = i.Next();
    const ModelData_Edge& anEdge = static_cast<const ModelData_Edge&> (aChild); //edge
    ...
}

When using the latter approach exploration is done traversing the graph of subshapes in a depth-first manner. Each subshape will be found as many times as it is registered in the parent subshape. For instance, a seam-edge will be encountered twice, with forward and reversed orientations.

The order of returned subshapes is deterministic and corresponds to the order in which the subshapes were added during construction.
