WBMFF: Blank instances are not filled with file names after loading Catia data into PDMLink using WBM.

WBMFF: Blank instances are not filled with file names after loading Catia data into PDMLink using WBM.

The property set.missing.instance.name controls the behavior of the Save to Workspace action in WGM. It is being set in wgmclient.ini which is not part of the WBM configuration.

The WBM process to extract the CAD metadata from CATIA files does not go over Save to Workspace functionality, since it is only using the .dll file (provided through cadAdapterDllPath in settings.txt) to read into the cad files and extract the attributes. Hence it will not take the property set.missing.instance.name into account.

Enhancement Request: WBMFF should update the CATIA files with the filenames where instance names are blank.

The csv file where I would expect the missing instance names is one of the following:

·        attributeDefinitions.csv (created after running getattributes command)

·        fileAttributes.csv (created after running the listfiles command)
