This documentation covers the entire HOOPS 3D Product Suite, which consists of three distinct HOOPS products that may be used independently or as a tightly integrated bundle. The sub-elements of the HOOPS 3D Product Suite include:
HOOPS 3D Application Framework (HOOPS/3dAF), sub-components include:
HOOPS Stream Toolkit (HOOPS/Stream), included with a license to HOOPS/3dAF but it may be licensed seperately and used independently from other HOOPS components. This documentation includes the complete HSF specification.
HOOPS Net Server (HOOPS/Net) which may be licensed seperately and used as an integrated component along with HOOPS/3dAF and/or HOOPS/Stream - or licensed and used as an entirely independent component.

TS3D also releases a number of Part Viewers which showcase the capabilities of the HOOPS technology including most of the file I/O capabilities available in the framework. Via these viewers you can publish your data to HTML, 2D/3D PDF and 2D/3D DWF. Additionally, some of the viewers are integrated with the Parasolid and ACIS modelling kernels and can be used by end-users to view, mark-up and web-publish their CAD data. The readable source code to these applications is included on the HOOPS/3dAF media which allows developers to easily incorporate Part Viewer functionality into their applications.

The navigation menu to the left will help you get the most from your use of any or all of the HOOPS 3D Product Suite components. You will find reference materials, coding examples, and reference application source code - all hyperlinked and easy to navigate.
Providing developers with advanced components for graphics, streaming and collaboration remains our focus at TS3D. This release includes many new features that continue to make the HOOPS 3D Product Suite a leader in 3D Graphics.

 

We are confident the HOOPS 3D Product Suite will continue to enable you to
 

Build Better Software. Faster.
