Public Member Functions

virtual ~BaseReader ()
 Destructor.

virtual std::string get_description () const=0
 Returns a brief description of the file type that can be parsed.

virtual std::string get_extensions () const=0
 Returns a string with the accepted file extensions separated by a whitespace and in small caps.

virtual std::string get_magic () const
 Return magic bits used to determine file format.

virtual bool read (const std::string &_filename, BaseImporter &_bi, Options &_opt)=0
 Reads a mesh given by a filename.

virtual bool can_u_read (const std::string &_filename) const
 Returns true if reader can parse _filename (checks extension).


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 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_.
