How do i get WTPart top level part type and all its subtypes through API.

I've used this but its been deprecated:

TypeAdminHelper.service.getTypeNodeRoots(TypeManager.getDefaultLocale());

That gets you the roots, top levels. It returns an array of TypeDefinitionNodeView and from there you can use this to get its children:

children = TypeAdminHelper.service.getTypeNodeChildren(node, TypeManager.getDefaultLocale());

which also returns and array at TypeDefinitionNodeView.

You will need to recurse until you get to the end.

What is the end game, meaning what are you going to do with the code once you have all WTPart subtypes, just curious.

That asked, I know how to do this, but are you looking to simple get the String values you show in your post or the actual type objects?

Seems to work.

Running code in Windchill shell.

Code return HashMap with key the full path to the type and value is type objects.

Print out is <full path> <object type internal name>

This is what is have done to get the info.

List<String> listType = new ArrayList<String>();
listType.add("wt.part.WTPart");
ClassAttribute caType = new ClassAttribute(WTTypeDefinitionMaster.class, WTTypeDefinitionMaster.INT_HID);
ConstantExpression ceType = new ConstantExpression("wt.part.WTPart|%");
//ceType.setUseEscape(true);
SearchCondition searchConditionType = new SearchCondition(caType, SearchCondition.LIKE, ceType);
QuerySpec groupQuery = new QuerySpec(com.ptc.core.meta.type.mgmt.server.impl.WTTypeDefinitionMaster.class);
groupQuery.appendWhere(searchConditionType, new int[] { 0, 1 });
QueryResult results = PersistenceHelper.manager.find(groupQuery);

while (results.hasMoreElements()) {
WTTypeDefinitionMaster grp = (com.ptc.core.meta.type.mgmt.server.impl.WTTypeDefinitionMaster) results
.nextElement();
//System.out.println(">>>"+grp.getIntHid());
listType.add(grp.getIntHid());
}
System.out.println(listType);

Thanks for the help.
