Reads and writes STL files for 3D Geometry.
Header only
Use one of the read functions in namespace tyti::stl.
Possible scalar values for the template float, double, default is float.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Reader Functions:
template<typename T, typename IterT>
inline bool read(basic_solid<T>& out, IterT begin, IterT end)
template<typename T, typename IterT>
inline std::pair< basic_solid<T>, bool > read(IterT begin, IterT end)
template<typename IterT>
inline std::pair< solid, bool > read(IterT begin, IterT end)
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Writer Functions: (streamT is an output stream type)
template<typename T, typename streamT>
void write(streamT& out, basic_solid<T>& s, bool binary)
template<typename T, typename streamT>
void write_binary(streamT& out, basic_solid<T>&s)
template<typename T, typename streamT>
void write_ascii(streamT& out, basic_solid<T>&s)
// Remark: the solid parameter is not constant to ensure the correct size of the containers.
// You may want to rewrite those functions corresponding on your error-checking presumptions
// The write functions were just written as a proof of concept and you may want to avoid them
