[cgma-dev] RefGroup question

[Paul Wilson]

Hi David,

I've never used this capability with OCC, so I don't know if there may 
be an issue there.  I think your simple example may be a good thing to 
test this with and possibly add to the test suite.

Starting at line 178, you will see that if the flag 'act_att' is set to true (it is initialized to true at line 136), then the attribute_manager is set to automatically read and apply the attributes upon reading a file.
