class Ifc2x3::IfcLine : public Ifc2x3::IfcCurve

Definition from ISO/CD 10303-42:1992: A line is an unbounded curve with constant tangent direction. A line is defined by a point and a direction. The positive direction of the line is in the direction of the Dir vector. The line is parameterized as follows:

P = Pnt V = Dir λ(u) = P + uV

and the parametric range is:

∞ < u < ∞

NOTE Corresponding ISO 10303 entity: line. Please refer to ISO/IS 10303-42:1994, p.37 for the final definition of the formal standard. The derived attribute Dim has been added at this level and was therefore demoted from the geometric_representation_item.
