Detailed Description

Base class for reader modules. Reader modules access persistent data and pass them to the desired data structure by the means of a BaseImporter derivative. All reader modules must be derived from this class.

Member Function Documentation

virtual std::string OpenMesh::IO::BaseReader::get_extensions (  )  const [pure virtual]

Returns a string with the accepted file extensions separated by a whitespace and in small caps.

Implemented in OpenMesh::IO::_OBJReader_, OpenMesh::IO::_OFFReader_, OpenMesh::IO::_OMReader_, and OpenMesh::IO::_STLReader_.

virtual bool OpenMesh::IO::BaseReader::read ( const std::string &  _filename,
BaseImporter _bi,
Options _opt 
) [pure virtual]

Reads a mesh given by a filename. Usually this method opens a stream and passes it to stream read method. Acceptance checks by filename extension can be placed here.

Implemented in OpenMesh::IO::_OBJReader_, OpenMesh::IO::_OFFReader_, OpenMesh::IO::_OMReader_, and OpenMesh::IO::_STLReader_.
