Yes.
:If so ... does it take care about all Inventor information as hierarchy,
:materials, lights, textures, etc ... ?
No. It represents the best loader I could write in a single afternoon -- and
I'm not that fast. The right thing to do is to parse the grammar, but there
was no handy YACC grammar, and since a new "IRIS Open Inventor" product will
soon be announced with a somewhat different file format, I did not feel that
it was worth the investment of time to generate one.
It does read the fifty or so models that come with the current version of
IRIS Inventor -- the aircar, pear, space station, and so on. I'd be happy
to post it here, but it would do you little good since it relies on several
of the new database loader utility functions that you don't yet have.
