I have read articles of pro-e about p-shell in pro-e community and i have found very interesting but not exaustive because . How I can learn p-shell programming?
Andrea
 
p-Shell was replaced by an even easier to use interface called NitroMation. NitroMaiton is the first and only Web Service interface to Pro/ENGINEER. It allows users to write applications in any programming/scripting language that supports the XMLRPC (Web Services) Protocol.


We use it exensivelyto integrate Pro/E with Excel, Oracle,Internal customers legacy applications any many other different systems.


You can learn more about it at: www.simplifiedlogic.com

Is Automation Gateway still supported? The only info I can find about it is from 2003... Who owns and supports it now? Does it work with WF3?



Dave
 
Yes, the latest version (4.4) supports all Wildfires including WF3 and both 32 and 64bit. You can find the contact mail at the bottom of the web page I have mentioned in my previous reply.

I see Nitro-cell and nitro-bom application in web and they are very good but I'm very interestin in learn programming in p-shell to customize interface for my application. If you can help me

Best regard

Yes - you can use the NitroMation-API to do that type of work. You have many options for doing it (e.g. .NET, Visual Basic, Java, C++/C# and even scripting languages like Tcl, Phtyon, php, etc., etc. etc. -- EVEN Flash!). You can even take existing applications and use NitroMation as the mechanism to do the Pro/E part (lots of customers do/take this approach).


Since the NitroMation uses XMLRPC (Web Services interface technology - the only one that does this in the industry) - you are pretty much open to use what ever you want to develop stuff.


The question is "What" are you trying to do? If you are looking to get the vertex of a surface - nitromation is *not* the tool for you. If you are looking for file management, pro/e session management, feature/dimension/parameter manipulations, etc. (e.g higher level view of the world - i.e. do this!) then Nitromation is likely a perfect fit.


e-mail me directly if you want to disucss your goals - no pressure just straight forward answers about what you are looking to accomplish.
