File Based Series : The series or seed is undefined

File Based Series : The series or seed is undefined

Hi All,

I had created a new file based series for a sub type of WTDocument in Windchill_10.1\Windchill\loadFiles\pdmlink\custom_series.xml

Step 1.)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<scheme>

  <series name="name1">

  <value>V1</value>

  <value>V2</value>

  <value>V3</value>

</series>

   <series name="name2">

  <value>V_1</value>

  <value>V_2</value>

  <value>V_3</value>

</series>

</scheme>

Step 2.)

After creating this series I had loaded this into Windchill from shell thereby running the command

windchill wt.series.LoadFileBasedSeries custom_series -load

This loaded successfully


Step 3.)

Upon Loading I had saved the current file or lists thereby running the below command in Windchill Shell

windchill wt.series.LoadFileBasedSeries custom_series -read

This was also loaded successfully and then I restarted Windchill.

Step 4.)

After that I went to OIR and downloaded the composite rule of the sub type of WTDocument that I created and edited the file to add the custom series.

<AttrValue

    id="MBA|versionInfo"

    algorithm="com.ptc.core.foundation.vc.server.impl.VersionInfoGenerator"

    <Arg>wt.series.HarvardSeries.custom_series</Arg>

  </AttrValue>

And then I uploaded my OIR file back to that sub type.

Step 5.)

And then I started creating a sub type of WTDocument

It says the series or seed is undefined and I am not able to create the document of that type

Can you please let me know where I had gone wrong ? Or is there any other step which is missing.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks and Regards,

Aditya Achanta

Aditya,

You should only give one series in OIR i.e. <Arg>wt.series.HarvardSeries.name1</Arg>. 'name1' series should have two seeds under it. Refer the below screenshot and update your file to call V_1.

My first guess would be you have an problem in Step 4 where you have "wt.series.HarvardSeries.custom_series" because in step 1 you are naming your series "name1" and "name2".

Hi Jones,

So in that case I had given in the OIR as

    <Arg>wt.series.HarvardSeries.name1</Arg>

    <Arg>wt.series.HarvardSeries.name2</Arg>

But after revising it for 4 times like after V4.1 I am not able to revise it once again.

When will V_1 series be called ? Can you please let me know ?

Thanks and Regards,

You should only give one series in OIR i.e. <Arg>wt.series.HarvardSeries.name1</Arg>. 'name1' series should have two seeds under it. Refer the below screenshot and update your file to call V_1.

Aditya: Bhagirath is correct. You need to redo the syntax of your xml file like his example. Then step 4 would look like this:

<AttrValue

    id="MBA|versionInfo"

    algorithm="com.ptc.core.foundation.vc.server.impl.VersionInfoGenerator"

    <Arg>wt.series.HarvardSeries.name1</Arg>

  </AttrValue>

and in your LifeCycle for the WTDocument you would select NUMERIC or MILSTD as appropriate for the different states as shown in the screenshot:
