Retrieve constraint of component by toolkit

[Manjunath]

Hi All,

Kindly suggest how to retrieve constraint of a component in assembly by toolkit

regards,

MS

You should consider to start here:

ProAsmcompConstraintsGet (ProAsmcomp *component,ProAsmcompconstraint **pp_constraints );

Read ProAsmcomp.h

Have fun 🤔

Hi RPN,

I used the following code 

	ProError err;
	ProMdl mdl;
	ProSelection* sel;
	int count;
	ProAsmcomp* cmp;
	ProAsmcompconstraint* constr;
	
	err = ProMdlCurrentGet(&mdl);
	err = ProSelect("membfeat",1,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,&sel,&count);
	err = ProSelectionModelitemGet(sel[0],(ProModelitem *)cmp);
	err = ProAsmcompConstraintsGet(cmp,&constr);
	return err;

but I could not retrieve the constraints

Sorry, I’m not at my desk, but As far I remember the selection option is invalid. Because  you will get a PRO_FEATURE and not a PRO_PART or PRO_ASSEMBLY

Input Arguments:

     component       - The assembly component

Component Feature	membfeat	PRO_FEATURE
Assemble component model	component	PRO_PART, PRO_ASSEMBLY

Try this

err = ProSelect("component",1,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,&sel,&count);

Component and Feature ID are the same, you can also set the model item type to PRO_PART or PRO_ASSEMBLY manually in your code, after you have selected the feature, and extracted the model item. But this is the purpose of the „component“ option.

Hi, 

When i use option "component" I couldn't select a part from sub assembly.

Is there any other way to proceed with this

Ok, use prt_or_asm, this should work.
