| Description: | This API copies the given entity and all its associated ("connected") entities, if any, using each entity's copy and fix-up methods (e.g., copy_scan, copy_data, fix_pointers, etc.). This includes entities that are above and/or below the given entity in the topological hierarchy. For example, copying an edge copies the coedges, loops, faces, shells, etc., as well as all the associated curves, vertices, points, attributes, etc. If there are no associated entities, only the given entity is copied. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Errors: | The NULL pointer is given to entity. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Limitations: | Refer to description. | |||||||||||||||||||
