Universal path for wtpub in config.pro

Universal path for wtpub in config.pro

Today, all paths defined in the config.pro and targeting the Windchill commonspace are defined like:

PRO_FORMAT_DIR wtpub://<server_name>/<Localized_Context_type>/CAD_Standard/FORMATS

Where:

<server_name> =  Server name defined by the user in the Creo server settings

<Localized_Context_Type> = Products or Libraries, depending on the Creo language. Can be Libraries (en) Bibliothèques (fr) Bibliotheken (de) etc.

E.g. with language fr

PRO_FORMAT_DIR wtpub://SERVER/Bibliothèques/CAD_Standard/FORMATS

Due to this, in an international group with different languages and many users, it is not possible to standardize the Creo configuration config.pro (or config.sup)

And we have a lot of hotline calls due to non consistent settings: server_name different between Creo setting and config.pro, context_type in confiig.pro not in same language than the Creo installation

Idea is to have a universal path, not depending on Creo language and on user creativity for server name

This idea is also duplicated in Homogeneous CAD-Templates
