class MakePipe from BRepOffsetAPI inherits MakeSweep from BRepPrimAPI

    	---Purpose: Describes functions to build pipes.
    	-- A pipe is built a basis shape (called the profile) along
    	-- a wire (called the spine) by sweeping.
    	-- The profile must not contain solids.
    	-- A MakePipe object provides a framework for:
    	-- - defining the construction of a pipe,
    	-- - implementing the construction algorithm, and
    	-- - consulting the result.
    	-- Warning
    	-- The MakePipe class implements pipe constructions
    	-- with G1 continuous spines only.
uses
    Pipe        from BRepFill,
    Wire        from TopoDS,
    Shape       from TopoDS,
    Edge        from TopoDS,
    ListOfShape from TopTools

is
 
    
    Create( Spine   : Wire  from TopoDS;
    	    Profile : Shape from TopoDS )
	---Purpose: Constructs a pipe by sweeping the shape Profile along
    	-- the wire Spine.The angle made by the spine with the profile is
    	-- maintained along the length of the pipe.
    	-- Warning
    	-- Spine must be G1 continuous; that is, on the connection
    	-- vertex of two edges of the wire, the tangent vectors on
    	-- the left and on the right must have the same direction,
    	-- though not necessarily the same magnitude.
        -- Exceptions
    	-- Standard_DomainError if the profile is a solid or a
    	-- composite solid.
