Get global coordinates of entry-port coordinate system with toolkit

I am using the toolkit to get entry-port parameters from an assembly model. Right now I am able to read the name of the entry-port coordinate systems of an given component. Now I would like to get the global coordinates of these entry-port.

 

Is there a way to read the global coordinates from the name of an entry-ports via toolkit? I didn't even find that information in Creo directly.

 

Thanks a lot

    Thanks, that worked out.

    Here my example code if anyone needs it:

     

    ProMatrix matrix;
    ProAsmcomppath comp_path;
    ProSelection* p_sel3;
    ProPoint3d p3d;
    ProPoint3d t_point;
    int n_sel3;

    ProError status;

    status = ProSelect("csys", 1, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, &p_sel3, &n_sel3); // select Entry-Port
    status = ProSelectionPoint3dGet(p_sel3[0], p3d); // get local coordinates
    status = ProSelectionAsmcomppathGet(p_sel3[0], &comp_path); // get ID-Table
    status = ProAsmcomppathTrfGet(&comp_path, PRO_B_TRUE, matrix); // get matrix for transformation
    status = ProPntTrfEval(p3d, matrix, t_point); // transform to global coordinates
