DataExchangeBaseRepsItf Interface CATIExchangeProductInstance

Usage: you can freely reimplement this interface.

interface CATIExchangeProductInstance

Interface to exchange product instances.
Role: This interface describes an instance of product. An instance is a space location in the context of a tree of a reference; the reference is either a product, or a part, both cases are handled thru a document. If available, presentation properties (color, layer, etc.) can be retrieved on the object using interface (use QueryInterface on the CATIExchangeProductInstance pointer).
Available from CATIA V5R10.

Method Index

o GetGeometricProperties(double[],double&,double&,double&): Retrieves the instance's geometric properties.
o GetInstanceAttributes(CATUnicodeString&,CATUnicodeString&): Retrieves the attributes of the instance.
o GetReferenceProduct(CATIExchangeProduct_var&): Retrieves the reference of this instance.
o GetTransformation(double[3][3],double[3]): Retrieves the spatial transformation of the instance.
o GetUID(CATLONG32&): Retrieves the UID associated to the instance.

Methods

o GetGeometricProperties

public virtual GetGeometricProperties(		`oCentroid`,
		`oVolume`,
		`oWetArea`,
		`oTolerance`)

Retrieves the instance's geometric properties.

Parameters:

oCentroid: Get the instance's centroid.
oVolume: Get the instance's volume.
oWetArea: Get the instance's wet area.
oTolerance: Get the tolerance used to compute wet area in the instance.

o GetInstanceAttributes

public virtual GetInstanceAttributes(		`oName`,
		`oDescription`)

Retrieves the attributes of the instance.

Parameters:

oName: Get the instance's name.
oDescription: Get the instance's description.

o GetReferenceProduct

public virtual GetReferenceProduct( oProduct)

Retrieves the reference of this instance. It's always a product.

Parameters:

oProduct: Get the product reference.

o GetTransformation

public virtual GetTransformation(		`oRot`,
		`oTrans`)

Retrieves the spatial transformation of the instance. The matrix must be isometric in case of conversion in V5 or V6. Includes mirroring, scaling, etc.

Parameters:

oRot: Get the rotation parameters.
oTrans: Get the translation parameters.

o GetUID

public virtual GetUID( oInstanceUID)

Retrieves the UID associated to the instance. The UID is used as an identifier of the instance; it is a non persistent ID, which lifecycle is mapped on the document lifecycle.

Parameters:

oInstanceUID: Get the instance's UID.
