BimNvApp Sample Application

BimNvApp is a sample application for the Microsoft® Windows® platform that can view NWD and NWC files. It is based on ODA BimNv SDK and ODA Kernel SDK, and also uses MFC libraries for its graphical user interface.

The application is a simple viewer that can open and visualize NWD and NWC files. Click the visualization button to set the "current view point" as the current view. The following image shows the result of visualization.
