function save

Saves a geometry to an STL format stream.

auto STL::save (
    const Geometry & geom,
    std::ostream & out
) 

Parameters:

• geom The geometry to save
• out The output stream

Exception:

• std::runtime_error If the geometry is invalid or unsupported

---

function save

Saves a geometry to an STL file.

auto STL::save (
    const Geometry & geom,
    const std::string & filename
) 

Parameters:

• geom The geometry to save
• filename The name of the file to save to

Exception:

• std::runtime_error If the file cannot be opened or the geometry is invalid

---

function saveToBuffer

Saves a geometry to an STL format buffer (C API).

auto STL::saveToBuffer (
    const Geometry & geom,
    char * buffer,
    size_t * size
) 

Parameters:

• geom The geometry to save
• buffer The buffer to write to
• size On input, the size of the buffer. On output, the number of bytes written (or required if buffer is null)

Exception:

• std::runtime_error If the geometry is invalid or unsupported

---

function saveToString

Saves a geometry to an STL format string.

auto STL::saveToString (
    const Geometry & geom
) 

Parameters:

• geom The geometry to save
