Scott,
As there was no response for the last few days, let me step in.
This can likely be easily done with CAD Exchanger SDK. Please email me at Commenter-1 dot lygin at cadexchanger dot com for more details, if interested.
Thank you,

Need to Set Assemblies to Meshes
I am wanting to loop through the assemblies in a .stp file then get the meshes for those assemblies. I have successfully built and added the C# example to my project but this requires i put a the viewer on my page i am just needing the meshes then i can convert them. This way i can use webgl on my page. Is there any examples that would help with this.

Hi Roman,
Not sure if CAD Exchanger can be a good example for Scott, just because I believe that Scott needs a source code example, right? Or now you also provide your software in open source ;)?
Hi Scott,
For the source code examples for dealing with STEP assemblies, please, have a look to the implementation of a set of Draw commands to deal with XDE - eXtended Data Exchange, implemented in the file XDEDRAW_Shapes.cxx.
The command to read a STEP file into an XDE document is 'ReadStep' (see XDEDRAW_Common.cxx).
The command to mesh a shape is 'incmesh' (in MeshTest.cxx).
Hope this can help you.
Best regards,

I am looking for what i will turn the assemblies inside of a STEP file to a STL Export.
You may refer to the source code of the command 'writestl' for STL writing (see XSDRAWSTLVRML.cxx).
Hope this helps.
