CATGSMUseItf Interface CATIGSMUseFactory

Usage: an implementation of this interface is supplied and you must use it as is. You should not reimplement it.

interface CATIGSMUseFactory

Factory of all geometrical elements of Generative Shape Design workshop.
Role: Creation of all Generative Shape Design feature.

All methods described here work on CATIMmiMechanicalFeature (for geometrical elements) and CATICkeParm (for data such as lengths, angles, ratios...). Note: If the creation fails, the methods return NULL_var.

Note: If the creation fails, the methods return NULL_var.

This factory never agregates the created feature. You need to agregate your object in a GSMTool feature to see it in 3D and Graph. GSMTool feature can be either HybridBody(Body), Geometrical Set (GS) or Ordered Geometrical Set (OGS).
You can use :

either the interface CATIMechanicalRootFactory to create the GSMTool and the interface CATIDescendants on GSMTool to agregate the GSM feature.
or in a more straigh forward way the method InsertInProceduralView method of CATIGSMUseProceduralView Interface. (recommended since V5R12)

Once aggregated the feature has to be updated.

If feature is inserted in Body or OGS, you have to call CATMmrLinearBodyServices::Insert() This method checks the linearity of the Parent/Children relationship and ,if needed, performed re-arrangement(Replace) to makes sure that created feature depends logically of just previouly created feature
