Public Functions

void AddKey (HPS.Key in_key)

Adds a key to be associated with this Component. This will additionally ensure this key can be used to find this Component via CADModel.GetComponentFromKey on the owning CADModel. In general, this will either be a SegmentKey or a GeometryKey (or a subclass thereof), but it may also be an IncludeKey, which is necessary for an instanced Component. If an IncludeKey is associated with this Component, the underlying target of the include will be associated with this Component, though the include will be stored as well to determine things like the associated KeyPath correctly.

Param in_key

The key to associate with this Component.

void AddOwner (HPS.Component in_owner)

Adds an owner to this Component. This is intended to facilitate adding additional owners to an instanced Component, and allows specifying the associated IncludeKey for the additional owner. It is possible to add an owner without adding an IncludeKey, and, if desired, add the IncludeKey separately via AddKey.

Param in_owner

The Component to act as an additional owner for this Component.

void AddOwner (HPS.Component in_owner, HPS.IncludeKey in_include)

Adds an owner to this Component. This is intended to facilitate adding additional owners to an instanced Component, and allows specifying the associated IncludeKey for the additional owner. It is possible to add an owner without adding an IncludeKey, and, if desired, add the IncludeKey separately via AddKey.

Param in_owner

The Component to act as an additional owner for this Component.

Param in_include

The IncludeKey for this Component for this new owner. This defaults to an uninitialized IncludeKey.

void AddReference (HPS.Component in_reference)

Adds a Component as a reference to this Component.

Param in_reference

The Component to add as a reference to this Component.

bool AddTransform (HPS.MatrixKit in_transform)

Appends a transform to the underlying PRC or Parasolid data associated with this component.

Warning

For Parasolid components, only transformations which are rigid motions can be applied. Calling SetTransform from a Parasolid component with a transform which is not a rigid motion, such as a shear, will cause the function to fail.

Warning

For Exchange components, only components of type ExchangeProductOccurrence, or components that have the type ExchangeRepresentationItemMask can have transforms applied to them. Additionally, SetTransform does not work on Exchange models which have a Drawing structure to them. This would include CATDrawing files and 2D DWG files loaded through Exchange. Any attempt to use this function on those models will produce a warning.

Param in_transform

The transform to apply to this component.

Return

true if transform was applied correctly, false otherwise.

void Assign (HPS.Component in_that)

Share the underlying smart-pointer of the Component source.

Param in_that

The Component source of the assignment.

Return

A reference to this Component.

Component ()

The default constructor creates an uninitialized Component object. The Type() function will return Type.None.

Component (HPS.Component in_that)

The copy constructor creates a Component object that shares the underlying smart-pointer of the source Component.

Param in_that

The source Component to copy.

HPS.Component CopyTo (HPS.Component in_new_owner)

Creates a deep copy of this component under another component. Please note how entity copying is handled for each type of entity:

  • Copying a RepresentationItem to a ProductOccurrence: The copy of the representation item will be inserted under the Part Definition under the target Product Occurrence

  • Copying a RepresentationItem to a PartDefinition: supported

  • Copying a RepresentationItem to a RepresentationItemSet: supported

  • Copying a PartDefinition to a ProductOccurrence: The function will create a new ProductOccurrence object, insert the copy into the children of this product occurrence and then insert this product occurrence under the target product occurrence. This is to avoid rewrite on the original PartDefinition of the target ProductOccurrence (if one exists)

  • Copying a ProductOccurrence to a ProductOccurrence: The newly created copy will be inserted under the target Product Occurrence. However we need to note that if the target ProductOccurrence already has a prototype, the prototype will not be visualized by HPS but only the newly created copy will be. In the case of ExternalData, both will be rendered by HPS.

  • Copying a ProductOccurrence to a Exchange ModelFile: The A3DAsmModelFile under the target component will be deleted, and a new one will be created. This new model is identical with the old model except that the copy of the source ProductOccurrence will be inserted under this new model. In this case, since we create a new CADModel, the reload process may take more time since we need to re-render the whole new model.

In any case, if the function fails, it will return an empty Component, so checking if the type of the returned component is None or not can be considered a way to test if the function succeeded or failed. Additional notes about the deep copy process: The deep copy process for ProductOccurrence and RepresentationItem uses two functions of Exchange: A3DAsmProductOccurrenceDeepCopy and A3DRiRepresentationItemDeepCopy. These functions can make changes to the structure of the entity, so we may not have a copy that is an exact replica of the source entity. More on this can be found here: https://docs.techsoft3d.com/exchange/latest/build/group__a3d__productoccurrence.html#ga4923ada4d2d9d04466b6213c66a2d62c and https://docs.techsoft3d.com/exchange/latest/build/group__a3d__ricontent.html#gac1eb0015f2b9601689a03112a0db2004 For PartDefinition and RepresentationItemSet, which lack a deep copy function in Exchange, the PartDefinition is only shallow copied, so its children pointers are shared between the source and the target. The deep copy process copies all the attributes of the source entity, thus, if the modelling matrix of the source entity if relative to its parents, the location of the copied entity will also be relative to its new parents.

Note

This will currently only work for derived Exchange components.

Param in_new_owner

The component which will be the owner of the newly created component.

Return

The newly created component.

void Delete ()

The behavior of the Delete function varies according to the type of object it’s being called on. HPS:

Removes this component from memory and invalidates any component objects referring to it. All owners of this component will no longer have it as a subcomponent, all components that reference this component will no longer have it as a reference, and the keys underlying this component will be deleted. Any subcomponents of this component that have multiple owners will have this component removed as an owner. Any subcomponents of this component that have only this component as an owner will be recursively deleted via this function. Invoking this function on an instance of an object derived from Component will perform some additional cleanup relevant to the derived type. For example, performing a delete on a CADModel will delete the default capture associated with the CADModel, delete its associated Model, and delete the mapping information between keys and components, in addition to performing all the operations for a generic component. See below for the behavior of derived types in the integrations that create component trees. Lastly, note that it is not necessary to construct or cast a component to its specific type to ensure the appropriate delete logic is used. The appropriate logic will always be invoked even if using a base Component object handle to a derived type. Exchange:

Invoking delete on these types will not modify the associated Exchange data. It will remove the associated A3DEntity pointer and component from the mapping data accessible via Exchange.CADModel.GetComponentFromEntity, and then it will invoke the base Component delete logic. When invoking Delete on the last root HPS.Exchange.Component, the whole subtree is deleted, but a new root HPS.Exchange.Component will be associated to the CADModel in order to be consistent with HOOPS Exchange behavior. In this case, it has an empty product occurrence data structure with no child at the HPS.Exchange.Component level.

Invoking delete on an Exchange.CADModel will delete the underlying A3DAsmModelFile via A3DAsmModelFileDelete if Exchange.CADModel.GetEntityOwnership is true. It will additionally clean up the associated A3DRWParamsPrcReadHelper if one was created during import (see Exchange.ImportOptionsKit.SetPRCReadHelper). The mapping data between A3DEntity pointers and components will also be deleted, and lastly it will invoke the delete logic for the base CADModel. Parasolid:

Invoking delete on this type will invoke PK_ENTITY_delete on the underlying Parasolid entity if the entity has class PK_CLASS_assembly or PK_CLASS_body. It will remove this Parasolid entity and component from the mapping data accessible via Parasolid.CADModel.GetComponentFromEntity, and then it will invoke the base Component delete logic.

The mapping data between Parasolid entities and components will be deleted, and then it will invoke the base CADModel delete logic. DWG:

Invoking delete on these types will not modify the associated DWG database. It will simply invoke the base Component delete logic.

Invoking delete on a DWG.CADModel will release the underlying AcDbDatabase via acdbReleaseHostDwg, and then it will invoke the base CADModel delete logic.

void Delete (HPS.Component.DeleteMode mode)

The behavior of the Delete function varies according to the type of object it’s being called on. HPS:

Removes this component from memory and invalidates any component objects referring to it. All owners of this component will no longer have it as a subcomponent, all components that reference this component will no longer have it as a reference, and the keys underlying this component will be deleted. Any subcomponents of this component that have multiple owners will have this component removed as an owner. Any subcomponents of this component that have only this component as an owner will be recursively deleted via this function. Invoking this function on an instance of an object derived from Component will perform some additional cleanup relevant to the derived type. For example, performing a delete on a CADModel will delete the default capture associated with the CADModel, delete its associated Model, and delete the mapping information between keys and components, in addition to performing all the operations for a generic component. See below for the behavior of derived types in the integrations that create component trees. Lastly, note that it is not necessary to construct or cast a component to its specific type to ensure the appropriate delete logic is used. The appropriate logic will always be invoked even if using a base Component object handle to a derived type. Exchange:

Invoking delete on these types will not modify the associated Exchange data. It will remove the associated A3DEntity pointer and component from the mapping data accessible via Exchange.CADModel.GetComponentFromEntity, and then it will invoke the base Component delete logic. When invoking Delete on the last root HPS.Exchange.Component, the whole subtree is deleted, but a new root HPS.Exchange.Component will be associated to the CADModel in order to be consistent with HOOPS Exchange behavior. In this case, it has an empty product occurrence data structure with no child at the HPS.Exchange.Component level.

Invoking delete on an Exchange.CADModel will delete the underlying A3DAsmModelFile via A3DAsmModelFileDelete if Exchange.CADModel.GetEntityOwnership is true. It will additionally clean up the associated A3DRWParamsPrcReadHelper if one was created during import (see Exchange.ImportOptionsKit.SetPRCReadHelper). The mapping data between A3DEntity pointers and components will also be deleted, and lastly it will invoke the delete logic for the base CADModel. Parasolid:

Invoking delete on this type will invoke PK_ENTITY_delete on the underlying Parasolid entity if the entity has class PK_CLASS_assembly or PK_CLASS_body. It will remove this Parasolid entity and component from the mapping data accessible via Parasolid.CADModel.GetComponentFromEntity, and then it will invoke the base Component delete logic.

The mapping data between Parasolid entities and components will be deleted, and then it will invoke the base CADModel delete logic. DWG:

Invoking delete on these types will not modify the associated DWG database. It will simply invoke the base Component delete logic.

Invoking delete on a DWG.CADModel will release the underlying AcDbDatabase via acdbReleaseHostDwg, and then it will invoke the base CADModel delete logic.

Param mode

The DeleteMode that we will use.

override void Dispose ()
bool Equals (HPS.Component in_that)

Check if the source Component points to the same underlying impl as this Component.

Param in_that

The source Component to compare to this Component.

Return

true if the objects reference the same impl, false otherwise.

override bool Equals (Object obj)
void Flush ()

Removes all references to the underlying subcomponents, but leaves this Component around. If a subcomponent of the component being flushed has multiple owners, the flush will simply remove the reference to that subcomponent. If a subcomponent of the component being flushed has only one owner (the component being flushed), that subcomponent will be deleted. Any handles to the deleted components will become invalid.

Get all Metadata objects associated with this Component.

Return

All Metadata objects associated with this Component.

HPS.Component[] GetAllSubcomponents (HPS.Component.ComponentType in_type)

Param in_name

UTF8-encoded name of the Metadata object to find on this Component.

Return

The single Metadata object with the given name associated with this Component (if present).

string GetName ()

Gets the name for this Component. This is a convenience function equivalent to getting the “Name” metadata for this Component. If a Component does not have a name, an empty UTF8 object will be returned.

Return

The name (if any) for this Component.

HPS.Component[] GetOwners ()

Get the Component objects (if any) which “own” this Component. Generally this will be a single element or no elements for a root component. It is possible for there to be multiple owners of a Component if it is instanced (i.e., it may have both a prototype and a containing Component).

See

GetReferrers()

Return

The Component objects (if any) which “own” this Component.

HPS.Component[] GetReferences ()

Get the Component objects (if any) which are referenced by this Component. These are Component objects which are associated with this Component, but not “owned” by this Component, and would not be deleted if this Component is deleted (though the reference relationship will be removed).

Return

The Component objects (if any) which are referenced by this Component.

HPS.Component[] GetReferrers ()

Gets the Component objects which refer to this Component (if any). These relationships are defined in the original CAD file and can be arbitrarily assigned between Components.

For the Exchange implementation of the Component hierarchy, Referrers will typically indicate which PMI elements refer to the Component being inspected.

See

GetOwners()

Return

The Component objects which refer to this Component.

HPS.Component[] GetSubcomponents ()

Get the subcomponent objects (if any) owned or referenced by this Component. These Component objects would be deleted if this Component is deleted.

Return

true if this Component has the given ComponentType mask, false otherwise.

override HPS.Type ObjectType ()

This function returns the type the object, as declared (if the object is derived, this does not give the true type of the derived object).

Return

The declared type of the object in question, which may differ from the true, underlying type.

bool SetName (string in_new_name)

Sets the name for this component.

Note

This will currently only work for derived Exchange components.

Return

true if the name was set successfully, false otherwise.

bool SetTransform (HPS.MatrixKit in_transform)

Applies a transform to the underlying PRC or Parasolid data associated with this component, replacing any transforms currently set on it.

Warning

For Parasolid components, only transformations which are rigid motions can be applied. Calling SetTransform from a Parasolid component with a transform which is not a rigid motion, such as a shear, will cause the function to fail.

Warning

For Exchange components, only components of type ExchangeProductOccurrence, or components that have the type ExchangeRepresentationItemMask can have transforms applied to them. Additionally, SetTransform does not work on Exchange models which have a Drawing structure to them. This would include CATDrawing files and 2D DWG files loaded through Exchange. Any attempt to use this function on those models will produce a warning.

Param in_transform

The transform to apply to this component.

Return

true if transform was applied correctly, false otherwise.

Public Static Functions

HPS.KeyPath[] GetKeyPath (HPS.Component in_component)

Gets the list of KeyPath objects that correspond to the given Component. There will be at least one KeyPath, and possibly more than one if a particular Component is instanced, e.g., if the Component corresponds to the wheel of a car, a KeyPath would be returned for each wheel (driver side front and rear, and passenger side front and rear). Each KeyPath in the list will also include the portion of the path above the Model (associated with the root CADModel) for each View, Layout layer, and Canvas permutation which includes the Model. This function will not take into account any includes or paths which do not come from the Component hierarchy or the View, Layout, and Canvas permutations which include the Model.

See

HighlightControl

Param in_component

The Component for which to compute the corresponding KeyPath objects.

Return

A list of all KeyPath objects which refer to the given Component.

HPS.KeyPath[] GetKeyPath (HPS.Component[] in_components)

Gets the list of KeyPath objects that correspond to the given ComponentPath. This function can be used to get the KeyPath for a particular instance of an instanced Component. For a non-instanced Component, since the ComponentPath can be determined unambiguously, the KeyPath returned will be the same as if only the leaf non-instanced Component was given to this function. There will be at least one KeyPath returned, and possibly more than one for each View, Layout layer, and Canvas which include the Model associated with the root CADModel. This function will not take into account any includes or paths which do not come from the Component hierarchy or the View, Layout, and Canvas permutations which include the Model.

See

HighlightControl

Param in_components

The ComponentPath for which to compute the corresponding KeyPath objects. The path should be defined such that the first element is the leaf Component, and the last element is the root CADModel. Each element in the path should be an owner of the preceding Component, otherwise an exception will be thrown.

Return

A list of all KeyPath objects which refer to the given Component.

bool operator!= (HPS.Component a, HPS.Component b)
bool operator== (HPS.Component a, HPS.Component b)
