Converting Proe 3D Files to Parasolid

[apilikov]

Hi all.


I have a simple question. How to convert (export) proe part to Parasolid format programmatically? I have found function ProOutputFileWrite, but it cannot perform saving in parasolid.


Thank you.

apilikov,<br style="font-weight: normal;"><br style="font-weight: normal;">By programmatically, do you mean through toolkit? If so, I may be able to help you. Please provide more details of what you are trying to accomplish.

Yeah I really want to know what toolkit functions should I use to convert ussual proe part to parasolid file.

hi apilikov,


There is Pro/TOOLKIT function which can be used to export 3d data. ProIntf3DFileWrite(). Refer the Pro/TOOLKIT W.F 2.0 documentaion for its usage.

hi praveen_nasar


I know this functions but here is the problem. I need to use proe2001 and in its toolkit there are no function which can convert proe data to parasolid.

apilikov,

I would just try to use a MAPKEY function if you can not access toolkit functions.

 

[apilikov]

What is MAPKEY and why should I use it? I only want to know is there opportunity to convert from proe data to PARASOLID anyway... by toolkit or by anything else.

Pro/E 2001 and earlier do not support Parasolid functions.


The Parasolid kernel API's were introduced into Pro/E when Wildfire was released.

ok, but as I found in protoolkit documentation there are no Parasolid export functions in Proe WF too. These functions I have found only in WF2 and WF3 documentation.


So as I understood the answer to my question is as follows: There are no possibility to export proe data to parasolid in proe2001 and WF. It's available only in WF2 and highest versions.
