RevolvedSurface.IsValidProfileCurve

Description:
Checks if the input profile curve is valid to create a surface of revolution in the given frame of reference.
Remarks:
The validity is defined as follows:
  • The profile curve is bounded and non-degenerate.
  • It is co-planar with the axis of revolution.
  • It lies on the xz plane of the frame.
  • It lies on the right side of the axis.
  • Only the end points of the profile curve can touch the axis.
Overloads (2):

IsValidProfileCurve(Frame,Curve)
IsValidProfileCurve(XYZ,XYZ,Curve) 
public static bool IsValidProfileCurve(
	Frame frameOfReference,
	Curve profileCurve
)
  • Frame
    frameOfReference
    frameOfReference is an orthonormal frame that defines a local coordinate system for the surface of revolution.
    • The frame can be "right-handed" or "left-handed".
    • The origin of the frame is the base of point of the axis of revolution.
    • The BasisZ of the frame is the direction of the axis.
  • Curve
    profileCurve
    The profile curve.
Return Value Boolean True if the profile curve is valid; False otherwise.
