Petru Conduraru 1b57803d82 ifcgeom: fall back to unsliced representation when layerset slicing fails #6607
--enable-layerset-slicing aborted the entire IfcConvert run (0 objects) on the
first element whose layerset could not be resolved. get_layerset_information
can throw (e.g. a wall Axis representation that is not castable to a curve ->
"Unexpected topology"), and apply_layerset / apply_folded_layerset resolve to
the AbstractKernel stubs that throw not_implemented on the OpenCascade kernel.
That exception was uncaught at the call site, so it propagated out and dropped
every element, not just the one that failed.

Wrap the layerset block in a try/catch: on failure, log GEO 260 and keep the
element's already-built unsliced body representation instead of letting the
exception abort the conversion. Elements that slice successfully are untouched
(the previous return values were already ignored).

Verified with a local OpenCascade build (OCC 7.9.2) on the reporter's
Cassiopae sample: --enable-layerset-slicing before the fix exits 1 with 0
objects (GEO060 Unexpected topology); after the fix it emits all 215 objects
(90 GEO260 fallback warnings), and default (no-slicing) output is byte-identical
before and after. Note: geometric slicing itself is not implemented on the
OpenCascade kernel on this line, so the recovered elements are emitted unsliced;
this change only stops the flag from silently dropping them.

IfcOpenShell

IfcOpenShell is an open source (LGPL) software library for working with Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). Complete parsing support is provided for IFC2x3 TC1, IFC4 Add2 TC1, IFC4x1, IFC4x2, and IFC4x3 Add2. Extensive geometric support is implemented for the IFC releases IFC2x3 TC1 and IFC4 Add2 TC1. Extending with support for arbitrary IFC schemas is possible at compile-time when using C++ and at run-time when using Python.

In addition to a C++ and Python API, IfcOpenShell comes with an ecosystem of tools, notably including IfcConvert (an application to convert IFC models to other formats), Bonsai (an add-on to Blender providing a graphical IFC authoring platform), and many other libraries, CLI apps, and more. Support is also provided for auxiliary standards such as BCF and IDS.
