Generating a model with Java OTK_model tree

Hello!

 

I created a part window using the code:

      Model tryModel = curSession.CreatePart ("Testing1");
      tryModel.Display ();

Here's what happened:

Then to create the tree elements I need to access the model in the current session:

=========================================================================

Session session = pfcSession.GetCurrentSession ();

Model currModel = session.GetCurrentModel();

MessageDialogOptions msgOpts = pfcUI.MessageDialogOptions_Create();
MessageButtons buttons = MessageButtons.create();
buttons.append(MessageButton.MESSAGE_BUTTON_OK);
msgOpts.SetButtons(buttons);
msgOpts.SetMessageDialogType(MessageDialogType.MESSAGE_WARNING);
msgOpts.SetDialogLabel("OTK Sweep Feature Create ERROR");

if(currModel == null)
       {
              session.UIShowMessageDialog("Model must be in current Session",msgOpts);
              throw new Exception("Method: pfcSession::GetCurrentModel \nMsg: otkSweepCreate");
       }

=========================================================================

The condition is not met and a warning appears:

How to create a model in a tree?
Has anyone built models using OTK Java?
Help me please.

 

Best Regards!

I found a mistake.
Everything works now.
My code is:

public Extrude()
	{
	}
public void OnCommand() throws jxthrowable
	{
	Session session = pfcSession.GetCurrentSession ();
	Model currModel = session.GetCurrentModel();
	if(currModel == null)
		createPart();
	else
		modelBuild();
	} 
public void createPart() throws jxthrowable {
 	try
	{
	Session curSession = pfcSession.GetCurrentSessionWithCompatibility(CreoCompatibility.C4Compatible);
	String modelLocation = "......";
	String model_name = ".......";
	ModelDescriptor desc = null;
	curSession.GetCurrentWindow().Activate();
	desc = pfcModel.ModelDescriptor_CreateFromFileName(model_name);
	desc.SetPath (modelLocation);
	Model template = curSession.RetrieveModelWithOpts(desc, pfcSession.RetrieveModelOptions_Create());
	Model newPart = template.CopyAndRetrieve("Test", null);
	Window newWindow = curSession.CreateModelWindow(newPart); 
	newPart.Display(); 
	curSession.SetCurrentWindow(newWindow); 
	newWindow.Activate();
	template.Erase();
	} catch (Exception e)
	{
	System.out.println("1: " + e);
	Session session = pfcSession.GetCurrentSessionWithCompatibility(CreoCompatibility.C4Compatible);
	Model currModel = session.GetModel("......", ModelType.MDL_PART);
	currModel.Erase();
	}	
	}
public void modelBuild() throws jxthrowable {
	try {
	int quan;

			name = ((Feature)items.get(j)).GetName();
			quan = ((Feature)items.get(j)).ListSubItems(ModelItemType.ITEM_SURFACE).getarraysize();
			allname = allname + name + ": " + quan + "\n";

Hello!
I have advanced a bit. Instead of creating a model from scratch, I copied the template and then deleted the template from the session:

 

desc = pfcModel.ModelDescriptor_CreateFromFileName(model_name);
desc.SetPath (modelLocation);
Model template = curSession.RetrieveModelWithOpts(desc, pfcSession.RetrieveModelOptions_Create());
Model newPart = template.CopyAndRetrieve("Test", null);
template.Erase();

 

After that, two problems arise:
1) (First problem) I run the example "otkCreateSweep.java" immediately after creation, but the code throws the same error "Model must be in current Session". But if I first create a model with one code and run an example with the second, then everything works. I understand that the model appears in the session only after the execution of the code ends, so it is impossible to do everything right away.
So I had to do this:

 

static int i = 1;
public Create_Part()
{
}
@Override
public void OnCommand()
{
	if (i == 1)
		{createPart();
		i++;}
	else
		addCreateSweep();
	}

 

But it does not look like a good solution.

2) (Second problem) I am now dealing with how to make a simple extrusion in the created model. I found the code in the PTC knowledge base that allows you to unload the tree of model in XML, it seemed to me that this would be useful, but the code could not be launched.
Knowledge Base Code:

 

try {
 Log.write("===============================================");
 Log.write("=== OnAfterFeatureCreate was called =======");
 Log.write("===============================================");
 Session session = pfcSession.GetCurrentSession ();
 wSolid = (WSolid)(session.GetCurrentModel());
 if ((currModel.GetType() == ModelType.MDL_ASSEMBLY) || (currModel.GetType() == ModelType.MDL_PART)) {
 try {
 //wSolid = (WSolid) sld;
 //cast exception com.ptc.wfc.Implementation.pfcPart$Part cannot be cast to com.ptc.wfc.wfcSolid.WSolid
 wSolid = (WSolid) currModel;
 wfeat = (WFeature) feat;
 } catch (Throwable e) {
 Log.write(" cast exceptoon : " + e);
 }
 ModelItem item = (ModelItem) feat;
 if (item.GetType() == ModelItemType.ITEM_FEATURE) {
 Log.write("GetType = ITEM_FEATURE");
 Log.write("featName=" + feat.GetName());
 if (wfeat != null) {
 ElementTree elementtree = wfeat.GetElementTree(null,
 FeatureElemTreeExtractOptions.FEAT_EXTRACT_NO_OPTS);
 if (elementtree != null) {
 Log.write("elementtree is not null print to XML file");
 elementtree .WriteElementTreeToFile(ElementTreeFormat.ELEMTREE_XML, "feat.xml");
 }
 } else
 { Log.write("wfeat is null");} 
 }
 } else
 Log.write("current model is not part or assem");
 } catch (Throwable e) {
 System.out.println("Exception caught finial : " + e);
 e.printStackTrace();
 Log.write("Exception caught in Body : " + e);
 }

 

Therefore, now I understand the documentation for Creo® Parametric TOOLKIT, it says about the element tree, but everything looks pretty confusing.

I will be grateful if someone will help me with these problems, if you have experience.
Thanks in advance.


Best Regards!

Hello!

 

Try to pass new model as argument to addCreateSweep (Model currModel)

Model newPart = template.CopyAndRetrieve("Test", null);
addCreateSweep(newPart);

And comment/delete a line Model currModel = session.GetCurrentModel(); in addCreateSweep ()

    Thanks!

    True, now the model does not produce errors, but the code still does not run 😞
