Hello everyone, According to you, we just make the importer of the ifc file for BRL-CAD by using STEPcode because BRL-CAD already uses STEPcode for STEP translator and also IFC standards is similar to STEP's part42. We just add the ifc prefix to all entity of STEP's part42 because geometry representation of STEP's part42 is similar to IFC standards. For the understanding, we just take a look of how OpenCasCade and STEP's translator are interlinked because we can do the similar thing in our project. Now what we can do for starting this project? -- Amritpal Singh Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, India http://www.amritpals.com/ https://github.com/amrit3701 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
