Question

OnAfterWindowChange

Hello all,


Does anyone have any experince with theOnAfterWindowChange event?


I have done some preliminary testing and found that it doesn't fire in all cases:



  • Shell: If proe file from windows explorer (by dobbleclick) it fires correct

  • If I open a sub-component from the tree it fires correctly

  • If drag'n'drop a file from windows explorer is does NOT fire

  • If open from proe file dialog it does NOT fire

Why isn't the event triggered in the 2 last cases? It doesn't matter if I have a window with a model shown already, in which case it creates a new window. I can kindof understand that it doesn't trigger if i only have an empty window.


I'm trying to update the model, when the user somehow opens a new "topmodel". I could do it on the retrieve event, but that will not trigger in the second case, since the sub-component is already in memory.


Have I missed some event?


thanks,


\Bjarne

The Pro/TOOLKIT notification type PRO_WINDOW_OCCUPY_POST reacts on all actions that Bjarne has tested with PRO_WINDOW_CHANGE_POST (OnAfterWindowChange in JLink):



  • Open a sub-component from the tree > OK

  • Drag'n'drop a file from windows explorer > OK

  • Open from proe file dialog > OK

  • Creating new model/drawing > OK

  • Open model from drawing tree > OK

The notification type PRO_WINDOW_OCCUPY_POST is available in Wildfire 5 or newer.

OnAfterWindowChange is inSessionActionListener, an interface in the com.ptc.pfc.pfcSession package.

Bjarne,


a solution from Wildfire 5 on might be this procedure:


1. Pro/E's config.pro has a protkdat option that starts a Toolkit app


2. The toolkit app starts and registers a jlink app


3. The toolkit app implements the listener/notification for OnWindowOccupy and this calls a jlink function from the jlink app started in step 2 (toolkit can do this).


I think it is not possible to execute a jlink function from a jlink app that's already running.Toolkit must start the jlink app to have a "jlink app handle" for later function calls.


Andreas
