PolyfaceVisitor Interface

A PolyfaceVisitor manages data while walking through facets.

  • The polyface visitor holds data for one facet at a time.
  • The caller can request the position in the addressed polyfaceData as a "readIndex".
  • The readIndex values (as numbers) are not promised to be sequential (i.e., it might be a simple facet count or might have "gaps" at the whim of the particular PolyfaceVisitor implementation).
