Import IFC -> carve::triangulate::incorporateHolesIntoPolygon failed

[schoeller]

Dear all,

thanks for this OSS product. I downloaded and compiled from Source. When importing an IFC geometry file from an alternative ACAD vendor I receive errors when opening the file in SimpleViewerExample as follows:

Detected IFC version: IFC4
Warning: createTriangulated3DFace, carve::triangulate::incorporateHolesIntoPolygon failed , IFC entity: #9436=IfcFace
Warning: createTriangulated3DFace, carve::triangulate::incorporateHolesIntoPolygon failed , IFC entity: #9441=IfcFace

File loaded: 17581 entities in 184.95 sec.

The visuals are as follows

Similar behaviour is reproducible for IFC 2x3. The drawing file has been attached.

Kind regards

This is a visual artifact because this model has coordinates too far of the origin (e.g. x=3472627.73 y=5546741.47 z=110.72), probably because is a terrain related model expressed in UTM coordinates. The problem is that OpenGL use float precision (about 7 or 8 significative digits) for the coordinates and the big numbers are expending all precision in the offset. If the model is translated near the 0,0,0 it is drawn as expected.
