New errors when using makePipeShell

[jblugagne]

Hi all,

I have a script that used to work before I updated to the latest version available on the Fedora repos. This script generates a rather complex part, and I run into errors when trying to use the makePipeShell function (I didn't have those problems before).
Below is the type of error I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/jeanbaptiste/bu/Senior Design Project/JB_proto/test.py", line 13, in <module>
wedge = W.makePipeShell([triangle],True,True)
Part.OCCError: BRep_Tool:: TopoDS_Vertex hasn't gp_Pnt

The following script is enough to re-create this error:

Code: Select all

from FreeCAD import Base
from FreeCAD import Vector as vec
import Part

trpts = [vec(0,0,0),vec(20.0,0,0),vec(0,0,10.0), vec(0,0,0)]
triangle= Part.makePolygon(trpts)

line = [Part.Line(vec(0,0,0), vec(0,30.0,0))]
S = Part.Shape(line)
W = Part.Wire(S.Edges)
wedge = W.makePipeShell([triangle],True,True)

Has there been a change in the makePipe / makePipeShell functions? (both return the same errors)
The new auto-generated documentation doesn't give a lot of useful information:

Is this pretty old code? Perhaps even 0.16 or older? Then you should try Part.LineSegment instead of Part.Line.

Thank you, that solved my issue!

Yeah the code was pretty old and I hadn't updated FreeCAD in a while.
