[Smtk-developers] smtk + netgen

[Maxim Torgonskiy]

Hi T.J.,

Thank you for your reply.  Sorry, I think I didn't explain myself
well. I need the netgen mesher itself, not only import/export.
Here is an example of how meshkit does it with moab and netgen:
https://bitbucket.org/fathomteam/meshkit/src/d23e7dd46053e2fe6382f7bfe69efbecfc8893e8/example/example_ngtetmesher.cpp?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default
The test model is the following:
https://bitbucket.org/fathomteam/meshkit/src/d23e7dd46053e2fe6382f7bfe69efbecfc8893e8/data/threeholecube.stp?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default
Is there any possibility to bind netgen with smtk? I've found only a
remus::Worker class
(https://github.com/Kitware/Remus/tree/master/remus/worker) that can
mesh using a server-client architecture (which could be a  big
advantage for us in the future).

Thanks,
Maxim
