Issue 4486: Surface.nurbs_approximation should  'tolerance' argument declared as inout                                                                                                                              (cad-ftf)

Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: Surface.nurbs_approximation should have 'tolerance' argument declared as 
   'inout' instead of 'in'.
   
   CAD Services specification indicates that 'If nurbs representation is 
   exact, tolerance will be returned as a negative'.  By the way, the 'NURBS' 
   acronym should be capitalized in the spec and IDL when used in this 
   context.
Resolution: see above
Revised Text: IDL modified on page 2-39 with supporting documentation on page 2-41.
Actions taken:
August 6, 2001: received issue
July 5, 2002: closed issue
Discussion: 
This correction resulted in a minor modification of the IDL and supporting documentation
