Repository Provider Customization (RepositoryProviderCustomization)

General Information

This opening ID is invoked during the import of VP5 objects into 3DEXPERIENCE.

The table below provides you with information related to the definition of the Opening ID.


PLM Opening ID:	`RepositoryProviderCustomization`
Customization intent:	Mapping
Execution context:	Client

Input Objects

Input objects must be of the type: SourceObject.

Context Object Parameters


Parameter Name	Type	Read/Write	Comments
`V_discipline`	`String`	Read	The V_discipline gives the discipline type of that particular type.
`Sharable String`	`String`	Write	The Sharable can be 3DPart or NonShared that determines the behavior of the object type being created in 3DEXPERIENCE.

Sample 1

The following Product Structure applies to all three CATRule samples.

The following is a CATRule file that applies to both the PV and CATPart and CATDrawing representations. As soon as we have such a CATRuleExit available in runtime, the specified CATRule file (VP5_Sample_Sharable in this example) will be read to understand the user-specified choice.

Let SourceObject(PLMEntity)
Let Sharable(String)
Sharable = "FALSE"
set SourceObject = Parameters->GetAttributeObject("SourceObject")
/* Sharable="3DPart" */
Sharable="NonShared"
Parameters->SetAttributeString("Sharable", Sharable)

  }

In the above CATRule file, you can specify the value of Sharable to either "NonShared" or "3DPart", as per the above CATRule file (Sharable=="NonShared"):

All representations (With CATPart or CATDrawing streams) should be imported as NonShared.
All references should be imported as simple references.

Results after import into 3DEXPERIENCE will be:

All Product1PRC, Product2, Part1 and Part2 references will be imported as simple references.
Part1Doc and Part2Doc will be imported as a NonShared representation (provided that these are not multi-instantiated EV5 Docs).
Drawing2Doc will be imported as a NonShared representation (provided that this rep is not a multi-instantiated rep).

Sample 2

The following is a CATRule file that has some customization behavior so that you force / specify that a CATDrawing representation is always imported as Shared.

Let SourceObject(PLMEntity)
Let Sharable(String)
Sharable = "FALSE"
set SourceObject = Parameters->GetAttributeObject("SourceObject")
Sharable="3DPart"
/*Sharable="NonShared"*/
Let srcObject_VDisc(String)
if(SourceObject->IsSupporting("VP5DocumentRepReference") == true  
or SourceObject->IsSupporting("VP5Drawing") == true ) 
{
  srcObject_VDisc = SourceObject->GetAttributeString("V_discipline") 
  if(srcObject_VDisc=="Drafting")
  {
	Sharable="FALSE"
  }

In the above CATRule file, you can specify the value of Sharable to be either "NonShared" or "3DPart", as per the above rule file (Sharable=="NonShared"). Later we have a condition (satisfied by a CATDrawing representation only) which sets Sharable to FALSE for this object:

All representations (with CATDrawing streams) should be imported as Shared.
All representations (with CATPart streams) should be imported as NonShared.
All references should be imported as simple references.

Results after import into 3DEXPERIENCE will be:

All reference Product1PRC, Product2, Part1 and Part2 will be imported as a simple References.
Part1Doc and Part2Doc will be imported as a NonShared representation (provided that these are not multi-instantiated EV5 Docs).
Drawing2Doc will be imported as a Shared representation.

Sample 3

The following is a CATRule file where user had specified value of Sharable as 3DPart, without testing V_discipline then it will be treated with the default behavior of drawing, Unshared.

Let SourceObject(PLMEntity)
Let Sharable(String)
Sharable = "FALSE"
set SourceObject = Parameters->GetAttributeObject("SourceObject")
 Sharable="3DPart" 
 /* Sharable="NonShared" */
Let srcObject_VDisc(String)
Parameters->SetAttributeString("Sharable", Sharable)

  }

In the above Rule file, you can specify the value of Sharable to be either "NonShared" or "3DPart". As per above Rule file (Sharable=="3DPart"). Later we didn’t add any condition (to be satisfied by a CATDrawing representation only) which can set Sharable to FALSE for this object:

All representations With CATDrawing streams should be imported as UnShared
All representations (With CATPart streams) should be imported as Shared
All references should be imported as Shared(Provided that these are not multi-instantiated EV5 Docs)

Results after import into 3DEXPERIENCE will be:

All Product1PRC, Product2 references will be imported as simple references.
Part1, Part2 will be imported as 3DPart references (provided that these are not multi-instantiated EV5 docs).
Part1Doc and Part2Doc will be imported as Unshared 3DPart representations (provided that these are not multi-instantiated EV5 docs).
Drawing2Doc will be imported as an Unshared representation.
