Dim instance As IBody2

System.object GetIntersectionEdges2( 
   System.object ToolBodyIn,
   System.bool AddFaceIds
)

System.Object^ GetIntersectionEdges2( 
&   System.Object^ ToolBodyIn,
&   System.bool AddFaceIds
) 

Parameters

ToolBodyIn

Temporary tool body used to perform the intersection with this body (see Remarks)

AddFaceIds

True to create IDs for any new faces, false to not (see Remarks)

Return Value

This method imprints a set of edges on both of the bodies and returns the edges in an unordered list as shown below. The total number of edges in the returned array is twice the value returned by IBody2::IGetIntersectionEdgeCount.

[ Edge1imprintedOnTarget, Edge1imprintedOnTool, Edge2imprintedOnTarget, Edge2imprintedOnTool ]

where Target is this IBody2 object, and Tool is the IBody2 object passed into this method as ToolBodyIn.

If the two bodies are in an assembly, then this method generates a list of the intersection edges between the two bodies. Before calling this method, the two bodies must be aligned. To align the two bodies, calculate the transformation from the first body to the second body and then apply the transform to the second body using IBody2::ApplyTransform.

In the case of a tangency condition (for example, a planar face contacting the cylindrical face of a cylinder), this method returns a single edge along the tangency.

You might also find that IBody2::Operations2 provides an adequate solution when intersecting a sheet body with a target body.

AddFaceIds allows you to add IDs to any newly created faces. This may be useful if ToolBodyIn later becomes a permanent body, which can occur in macro features.
