0008578: integrate IGES / STEP / BREP reader in ParaView using OpenCascade library
The idea is to implement additional readers to import in ParaView geometries defined in IGES, STEP or BREP formats, maybe based on the OCC library.

It would be interesting to be able to process geometries defined in CAD with ParaView existing filters, or user defined ones.
Open Cascade is an open source library written in C++, and aiming at offering tools to handle CAD data.

It most notably provide readers for IGES and STEP formats, as well as BREP (its own data format)

It is to be noticed that part of the work has already been done (reader built on OCC):
