I want to create a WTPart object using the Info Engine Task Editor.

It is asking me to pass an object as a parameter.

Please tell me how to pass an object in the objects field shown in the below snapshot.

I have invoked it from Info*Engine task. Check the following.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<%@page access="http"%>
<%@taglib uri="http://www.ptc.com/infoengine/taglib/core" prefix="ie"%>
<%@page import="com.infoengine.object.factory.Att"%>
<%@page import="com.infoengine.object.factory.Element"%>
<%@page import="com.infoengine.object.factory.Group"%>

<%
try{

Task task = new Task();

task.setTaskURI("com/ptc/windchill/ws/create.xml");
task.addParam("INSTANCE", "com.ptc.Windchill");
task.addParam("supporting-adapter", "com.ptc.Windchill");

Element element = new Element();
element.setFti("wt.part.WTPart");
Att att1 = new Att("name");
att1.setValue("Part_created_from_InfoEngine12333");

Att att2 = new Att("number");
att2.setValue("IS100012333");
element.addAtt(att1);
element.addAtt(att2);

Group grp = new Group("objects");
grp.addElement(element);

task.addGroup(grp);

task.invoke();
}catch (IEException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

System.out.println("End");

Your IE task seems incomplete to create an object. Check following webject example and modify for your requirement. "file" is a parameter needed for document name.

<ie:webject name="Query-Objects" type="OBJ">

<ie:param name="INSTANCE" data="$(@FORM[]supporting-adapter[*])" delim="!" valueSeparator="!" default="<%=com.infoengine.au.NamingService.getVMName()%>"/>

<ie:param name="GROUP_OUT" data="container"/>

<ie:param name="TYPE" data="wt.inf.container.WTContainer"/>

<ie:param name="WHERE" data="name=GOLF_CART"/>

<ie:param name="SESSION_ID" data="$(session[]session_id[])"/>

<ie:param name="BLOB_COUNT" data="0"/>

<ie:param name="ATTRIBUTE" data="*"/>

</ie:webject>

<ie:webject name="Create-Objects" type="ACT">

<ie:param name="INSTANCE" data="$(@FORM[]supporting-adapter[*])" delim="!" valueSeparator="!" default="<%=com.infoengine.au.NamingService.getVMName()%>"/>

<ie:param name="ATTRIBUTE" data="name"/>

<ie:param name="ATTRIBUTE" data=""/>

<ie:param name="TYPE" data="wt.doc.WTDocument"/>

<ie:param name="SESSION_ID" data="$(session[]session_id[])"/>

<ie:param name="BLOB_COUNT" data="0"/>

<ie:param name="CONTAINER_REF" data="$(container[]obid[])"/>

<ie:param name="FIELD" data="name=$(@FORM[]file[])"/>

<ie:param name="GROUP_OUT" data="document"/>

</ie:webject>

Ajay,

The IE task that you are using is meant to be invoked as a web service. Either invoke it as a web service or from another IE task. It may not be possible to pass object as input while using IE Task editor.

Hi Ismail,

I want to invoke the IE task through java code.

So, I want to pass that object via Java code.

The code snippet is as followed:

Task task = new Task();

System.out.println("Start");

task.setTaskURI("com/ptc/windchill/ws/create.xml");

task.addParam("INSTANCE", "com.cts.wccoe.Windchill");

task.addParam("supporting-adapter", "com.cts.wccoe.Windchill");

task.addParam("FIELD","name='C-3102'");

task.addParam("FIELD","number='3102'");

task.addParam("FIELD","containerReference='OR:wt.pdmlink.PDMLinkProduct:116778'");

task.addParam("FIELD","typeIdentifier='wt.part.WTPart'");

task.addParam("TYPE","wt.part.WTPart");

System.out.println("End");

task.invoke();

Ajay,

Try the following code.

------------------------------

try{

Task task = new Task();

task.setTaskURI("com/ptc/windchill/ws/create.xml");
task.addParam("INSTANCE", "com.cts.wccoe.Windchill");
task.addParam("supporting-adapter", "com.cts.wccoe.Windchill");

Element element = new Element();
element.setFti("wt.part.WTPart");
Att att1 = new Att("name");
att1.setValue("Part_created_from_InfoEngine");

Att att2 = new Att("number");
att2.setValue("IS100012333");
element.addAtt(att1);
element.addAtt(att2);

Group grp = new Group("objects");
grp.addElement(element);

task.addGroup(grp);

task.invoke();
}catch (IEException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
