Re: [Update REQ 5236]: [Q] Converters to generate OOGL files : BUG!

["Stuart Levy" <slevy>]

Oh, sorry.  The line
1	5

is a bug; it should have been a 4-vertex face.  Somehow this and related
examples behaved correctly when run on my Next.  Anyway, it's fixed now,
and a new version is in ftp://geom.umn.edu/priv/slevy/ucdtooff.tar.Z.

Don't worry about the "ignoring unknown type stress" message; it's just
reporting that there's no way to represent that information in the (purely
geometric) OOGL formats.

I don't understand why Cyberview complained, though.  Even though ucdtooff
didn't correctly convert the input, its output was still a valid OOGL file.

A possible problem: if you gave input to Cyberview by pasting it into a
text-input field in a WWW browser, is it possible that separate lines were
joined together in the process?  Line breaks are significant in OFF objects;
if the entire file were represented as a single line, it would fail.
