Data Structures
class	GeomAPI_ExtremaSurfaceSurface
	Describes functions for computing all the extrema between two surfaces. An ExtremaSurfaceSurface algorithm minimizes or maximizes the distance between a point on the first surface and a point on the second surface. Results are start and end points of perpendiculars common to the two surfaces. Solutions consist of pairs of points, and an extremum is considered to be a segment joining the two points of a solution. An ExtremaSurfaceSurface object provides a framework for: defining the construction of the extrema, implementing the construction algorithm, and consulting the results. Warning In some cases, the nearest points between the two surfaces do not correspond to one of the computed extrema. Instead, they may be given by: a point of a bounding curve of one surface and one of the following: its orthogonal projection on the other surface, a point of a bounding curve of the other surface; or any point on intersection curves between the two surfaces.
