Description:
|
Appends the second curve to the end of the first, constructing a new combined curve (though destroying the originals). If two curves are input, the first curve is modified to be the combined curve and returned; the second curve is deleted. If one curve is
NULL, the other curve is returned as the combined curve.

Limitations:
|
This routine does not check for compatibility. It is commonly used after
bs3_curve_split(), where the curves were originally the same curve. Compatible means that the splines have the same degree and rationality, and the end of the first is coincident with the start of the second. Note that this is not what is provided by
bs3_curve_compat(). That routine results in two curves that are compatible side-by-side, e.g. that could be used as two curves of the same surface, in the same direction.
