Example file "cube-advanced-brep" is not working

The file is here. Current version crashes.

As of today, still not working

The following table shows in the left part a subset of ifc-types which are used in the cube-advanced-brep.ifc. The inheritance structure according to the ifc-documentation is shown in the middle part. The corresponding functions and their converter class in open-infra-plattform are shown in the right part.

The ❌ means that there is no converter function (or at least I wasn't able to found it). The ❓ means that there is something, but the code probably will not do the necessary job for this example file. Ifc-classes in italic and in parentheses are just informational.

I made this table to get a personal overview on which converter functions will be involved for this example file - there is no claim for completeness and correctness. Furthermore, for making this example file workable, it shows the pending work, As well, the table identifies the connection-points / -functions between the pending work and the existing code. See this table just as nice piece of information, maybe someone has more experience to estimate the needed effort.
