Pro/TOOLKIT: Activate foating modules via toolkit

[LarsZiegler]

Hello!

Is there a possibility to activate a foating network module via Pro/TOOLKIT?

In my application I need the NC-COMPLETE_SET for a short time. After the use I want to free the license.

Can anybody help me?

Many thanks!

Lars

Lars,
That would be a great piece of functionality but sadly it does not exist. Here is a macro that I execute within my Pro/TOOLKIT application to acquire a floating module.

ProError MfgRegenJob::AcquireNCOption()
{
char *funcName = "AcquireNCOption";
ProError pro_error = PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;
ProBoolean pro_haveNcAdvanced = PRO_B_FALSE;
ProMacro pro_macro;

//Check if I already have the Pro/NC-ADVANCED option
pro_error = ProOptionOrderedVerify("Pro/NC-ADVANCED", &pro_haveNcAdvanced);
PROUTIL_CALL_REPORT("ProOptionOrderedVerify()", funcName, pro_error, pro_error!=PRO_TK_NO_ERROR);

if(pro_haveNcAdvanced == PRO_B_FALSE)
{
//Add the Pro/NC-ADVANCED option
ProStringToWstring(pro_macro, "~ Select `main_dlg_cur` `MenuBar1`1 `Utilities`;"
"~ Close `main_dlg_cur` `MenuBar1`;"
"~ Activate `main_dlg_cur` `Utilities.psh_util_flt_mod`;"
"~ Activate `check_list` `ck.NC-ADVANCED`1 ;"
"~ Activate `check_list` `OkBtn`;");

//Execute the macro
pro_error = ProMacroLoad(pro_macro);
PROUTIL_CALL_REPORT("ProMacroLoad()", funcName, pro_error, pro_error!=PRO_TK_NO_ERROR);

//Check that the option was successfully added
pro_error = ProOptionOrderedVerify("Pro/NC-ADVANCED", &pro_haveNcAdvanced);
PROUTIL_CALL_REPORT("ProOptionOrderedVerify()", funcName, pro_error, pro_error!=PRO_TK_NO_ERROR);

if(pro_haveNcAdvanced == PRO_B_FALSE)
return PRO_TK_GENERAL_ERROR;
}

return PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;
}
