Exclude instances of pattern using OTK Java + Feature Element Tree

Hello everyone!

 

I created a pattern using OTK Java and FET. Now I need to exclude some of the elements of the pattern (just as is done with Creo).
Please tell me how to do this.
Thanks in advance.

 

Respectfully!

Thank you for performing the tests.
This is exactly what i would have done.


This test shows that JOTK and broadling speaking FET do not handle membership in feature pattern.

not exactly sure i understand your requirement but here is a comprehensive article about how to use Element Tree:

This was written with Creo Toolkit (C) in mind but you can still extrapolate.

    Thanks for the answer!

    I apologize for the incomprehensible wording.

    I will try to explain what I need more clearly.

    For example, I have the pattern created using Java OTK and FET:

    Since I created this element using FET, I know that it has a certain structure, the elements of which perform certain functions.
    But I could not find the element that is responsible for the functionality I need.
    This is what I need:

    1) disabling pattern elements.

    2) the result that I need:

    That is, I need to programmatically disable some of the pattern elements.

    Thanks in advance!
    Regards!

    thank you for clarifying.

     

    You may  try and extract the tree information and compare the pattern with versus without the excluded member.
