FromHoudiniSopConverter loosing edge connectivity

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
when exporting a mesh from houdini through the cortex writer, the edge 
connectivity information seems to get lost (visible when showing the object 
again in gl)
prior export to obj and then conversion does not show the issue.

you can load attached file into the current geo1 using 
a = hou.node("/obj/geo1")
a.loadChildrenFromFile("/tmp/sopConvertFail.cpio")

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

This geometry appears to be a single mesh hull (the grid sop primitive type is 
set to 'mesh') and the exporter only supports polygon primitives currently. If 
you set the grid type back to 'polygon' does that fix the problem?

yep, it does -  sorry should have checked that!
would be good if the converter would throw a warning or error rather than 
produce invalid geometry, but i guess these issues will be addressed in the 
upcoming updates
