Invoking WGM client customization from external application (not authoring tool)

Dear PTC Support,

We were trying to find a way to invoke WGM customeizer from 3rd party application (batch).

But came to know that it's a limitation as per WGM toolkit documentation:

Workaround:

Note that at start up, WGM-client loads custom-DLL & calls initialize method (wwgmtkClientCustomizer::initialize())) where we can write code to do the job & terminate the WGM-client process.

But as per our requirement, we need to have a batch application which will process several requests and it won't be a good idea to launch WGM-client process for each request!! and terminate it.

So I think it is better to have someway to invoke custemizer from external application to manage properly.

I hope it will be possible with future release.

Let me know if you require more details.

Thanks,

Nathaniel
