If you want to make a 3D modeling application using HOOPS Visualize with Siemens Parasolid, we recommend you to use the latest interface: HPS, rather than the legacy one: 3DF.

However, if you are an expert in 3DF and want to integrate Parasolid into your existing 3DF application or migrate an existing 3D kernel to Parasolid, this article will be a good reference for getting started and checking feasibilities.

Although HOOPS-Parasolid integration module project can be found in <HV-3DF SDK>\Dev_Tools\hp_bridge, there isn’t any integration sample in the latest SDK. (Parasolid Part Viewer is no longer provided after 3DF 24.00)

This is a step-by-step guide of how to integrate the hp_bridge to mfc_simple project.
