[vtkusers] IGES Writer

[Goodwin Lawlor]

The recent post (from Congjin Chen) was looking for an IGES reader... Anner,
below, is looking for an IGES writer.

Christophe Attanasio suggested the app occvtk_viewer which used occ (
www.opencascade.org ) to read the IGES file and VTK to visualize it...
occvtk-viewer can read in STL and IGES but it can't save out IGES (or any
file format). Somebody could write a similar app using occ to do that though
(or extend occvtk). Or maybe someone could have a look at the occ source and
write a vtkIGESWriter class- that would be nice. At the moment we use
AutoCad to read in STL (written out by vtkSTLWriter) and write out IGES,
just for polygonal surfaces though.
