 Example of a Hand-Decoded Parasolid XT File (of a sphere from Autodesk Inventor) |
On this page we have hand decoded a Parasolid XT file exported from Autodesk Inventor (of a BREP solids sphere object). We could
not find any similar decoded example on the Internet and hence chose to provide one ourselves for educational and learning purposes.
The original file listing
can be reviewed here and the highly simplified hierarchical listing
can be reviewed here.
- The number in round brackets is the Parasolid entity number (which matches the definition in the schema file).
- The 'Index' number uniquely identifies each entity node in the file.
- The numbers in the sub-lists make reference to other entity nodes by way of their unique Index numbers (they are essentially pointers).
