Thomas,
thanks for the information. I guess I should first have close look at
your project before anything else. I will follow your advice and have a
closer look at OpenCascade.
I do know Hoops fairly well, I have written an OpenGL based Hoops alike
toolkit at work. It implements about 50-60% of Hoops functionality.
Hoops being non-free is not really my thing and for anything with even
a commercial perspective it is out of the question.
Again, thanks for your thorough advice. I appreciate it.
Roland
