Hi @Gucio 

In the file csvmapfile you should find begin and end element for the object and between this elements there are added the IBA definitions.

 

Here is example for WTPart object (same way it should be for the Options)

Hi PetrH,

 

thx for replaing for my next issue - hope this time you will help me again 🙂

I've done some test, and for Options (Options and Variants modul)  sample xml file should looks as follow:

 

<?xml version="1.0" ?><!DOCTYPE NmLoader SYSTEM "standard12_1.dtd">
<NmLoader>
 <csvBeginOption handler="com.ptc.windchill.option.load.Loader.beginOption" >
 <csvtypedef>com.ptc.windchill.option.DesignOption</csvtypedef>
 <csvname>test_1</csvname>
 <csvdescription>description_1</csvdescription>
 <csvoptionDataType></csvoptionDataType>
 <csvQoMName></csvQoMName>
 <csvOverrideDisplayUnits></csvOverrideDisplayUnits>
 <csvoptionGroup></csvoptionGroup>
 <csvrequiredOption></csvrequiredOption>
 <csvsingleChoiceSelection></csvsingleChoiceSelection>
 <csvnumber></csvnumber>
 <csvautoCreateBooleanChoices></csvautoCreateBooleanChoices>
</csvBeginOption>

 <csvIBAValue handler="wt.iba.value.service.LoadValue.createIBAValue" >
 <csvdefinition>DESCRIPTION_PL</csvdefinition>
 <csvvalue1>myDescription</csvvalue1>
 <csvvalue2></csvvalue2>
 <csvdependency_id></csvdependency_id>
 </csvIBAValue>

 <csvEndOption handler="com.ptc.windchill.option.load.Loader.endOption" />

</NmLoader>

 but going deeper, customer wants to load group with custom IBA defined. So my file is

 

<?xml version="1.0" ?><!DOCTYPE NmLoader SYSTEM "standard12_1.dtd">
<NmLoader>
<csvOptionGroup handler="com.ptc.windchill.option.load.Loader.createGroup" >
 <csvname>Groupa 1</csvname>
 <csvoptionTypeDef>com.ptc.windchill.option.DesignOption</csvoptionTypeDef>
</csvOptionGroup>

<csvIBAValue handler="wt.iba.value.service.LoadValue.createIBAValue" >
 <csvdefinition>SP_GROUP_GROUP_DESCR_EN</csvdefinition>
 <csvvalue1>english group description</csvvalue1>
 <csvvalue2></csvvalue2>
 <csvdependency_id></csvdependency_id>
</csvIBAValue>

</NmLoader>

 

as a result

Question: what is wrong? How to debug to get more info?

 

Any idea??

Hi @Gucio

You need to place the IBA definition between begin and end elements for the optionsgroup so you need to find correct definition in the csvmapfile.txt for the option same as the csvBeginOption and csvEndOption 

 

but if the definition does not exists, it is not possible to set the IBA definition for the option group
