How to get Edge generated from Chamfer using toolkit

Question

Hello
 
We can extract feature element tree and find out which edges would have been used for generation of chamfer feature.
 
As we all know, it is possible to have two different sets of edges for chamfer creation. Through element tree, we are able to get edges used into definition of chamfer feature.
 
Chamfer creates additional edges and we can identify all edges due to chamfer feature using feature geom item visit.
 
We would like to map how to map two edges one which was used in edge definition with edge generated due to chamfer.
 
Feel free to ask for clarification if something is not clear.

Ketan, in a simplistic case of linear edges - chamfer edges would be parallel to the parent edge and would have approximately the same length. Chamfer edges regardless of their geometry will share one of the neighboring surfaces of the parent edge.
