The
working set captures and stores transaction history of the CATIA files
and is updated every time you checkin or checkout, lock or unlock, or
perform any other file operations using the ENOVIA integration in your
CATIA tool, or the X-CAD Design Management menus.
X-CAD Design Management updates the working set when the checkin,
checkout, or other file operation completes. If the operation does not
fully complete, the working set is not updated. Whenever operations such
as checkin, checkout, lock, unlock, or attribute synchronization is done,
X-CAD Design Management reads your working set and allows you to continue
only if the information about your file matches the information stored
in the working set. If it detects a discrepancy, it displays an error
message.
If you use your computer to copy, move, delete files, or overwrite
one iteration over other, X-CAD Design Management loses track of the files.
You should always use the ENOVIA system (from your CATIA tool or from
the ENOVIA application) to work with files.
When you check in a file that already exists in the ENOVIA,
X-CAD Design Management determines the iteration of the file being checked
in by reading your working set.
You can only store a single iteration of a CATIA file in a directory
on your local computer. If you need to maintain multiple iterations, you
need to keep each iteration in a different directory. Integration keeps
track of the files a user works with. This helps the integration to locate
the exact business object in ENOVIA when a user selects Lock/Unlock,
Attribute Synch and iterations.
