Hi Andrew,
What I am suggesting is that you only call methods like GetEdges once, save the
result into a local variable and then use the local variable in the inner loops
instead.
e.g. You should only call to GetEdges (and many other mesh methods) once in
your code.
CEdgeRefArray edges = curMesh.GetEdges();
for...
for...
do_something(edges.GetItem(i));
Whenever you see a long sting on repeated calls (a().b().c()...) you should ask
yourself whether you can save the intermediate results in a local variable and
use that instead.

Subject: Re: EdgeRing ALG for n-gons
Can you tell a bit more about optimisation and efficient calls pls.
I have lots of question about XSI objects and classes best practices.
If i understand your suggestion right i should alwayse preffer XSI reference
containers (EdgeRefArray etc) to value containers like CLongArray, CValueArray
etc. Or not ?
I also often use curMesh.GetEdges().GetItem() aproach to get one specific
component instance with known index.
I suppose this way also is slow. What should i do in this situation ?
