Hi Jaroslav,
We kept the CATIA loader out of the betas mainly because of build issues.
You see CATIA is o32 but we didn't want to ship o32 anymore so we
statically liked in all of the required Performer libraries into the catia
loader. Doing that proved to be a little tedious and is why we didn't have
it in the betas. It's there now and when 3.1 ships you can find the binary
in /usr/sbin/cat2pfb and yes, it will load the CATIA reps as higher level
objects (mainly pfPlaneSurface, pfPieceWisePolySurface and trim curves as
pfPieceWisePolyCurve2d elements.)
Hope this answers your questions,
Alex.
