The [[Geometry Service Project Main|Geometry Service Project]] aims to restructure the geometry management services within BRL-CAD and provide a new user interface.
 
As part of these efforts [[BRL-CAD's core C++ interface]] should become a self-contained object-oriented interface to BRL-CAD's geometry kernel, hence the Geometry Engine.
 
As part of these efforts [[BRL-CAD's core C++ interface]] should become a self-contained object-oriented interface to BRL-CAD's geometry kernel, hence the Geometry Engine.
With that, the C++ interface would be a canonical API for external applications, interfaces to other programming languages, etc..
 
That's why it is included in the brlcad.dll (and its SDK): Easy distribution of BRL-CAD functionality to MS Windows programs.
 
 
The C++ interface already provides access to the 3 database types read-only, write-on-change and in-memory.
 
The last one provides the usual "load -> change -> save" behavior for applications.
 
Additionally objects for most of the simple primitives and combinations are included too.
