I/O Methods on Surface_Build

 

   tex2html_wrap44880    tex2html_wrap44882
SURFACE_BUILD * sfbuild
char * path
"read-data" reads in the Surface_Build description file path/name.bd -- all Surface_Build description files should have the extension *.bd returned by "get-extension" -- where name is the name of the sfbuild instance. Depending on the point and patch data read from the file some rulers might be created and added to the option menu of the manager. The default method for the rulers is "parameter-changed" (see 7.4.1.5) therefore changing a ruler will recompute sfbuild for the new data.

   GRAPE(sfbuild, "xdr")(xdrp)
SURFACE_BUILD * sfbuild
XDR * xdrp
Read the sfbuild instance from or write it to the XDR stream xdrp. This method should not be called directly, refer to 5.7 (especially 5.7.3) for details.
