I've constructed a surface by revolving some curves (by making edges, wires etc) then fused the shapes together (BRepAlgoAPI_Fuse). Is there some way to get a Geom_Surface from the resulting TopoDS_Shape?

Is that a "new" feature? I don't have such a function in my BRep_Tools. I'm using version 4.0.

It is a very old function.
check in BRep_Tool and not in BRepTools
