Anil,


Maybe you can be more specific in whatyour problem. Posting some code would be very helpful as well. Otherwise, we may not be able to help you.

 

[_TL_]

Yes, what do you mean by open ProE session? You can connect to session by Pro/Toolkit, but as williaps said, it will be good to describe it more and provide problematic part of code.

Regards

Hi Williaps,


I have using dotnet 2003, and ProE version 3.0.I want to create a MFC Application with button when i click on that butoon it will invoke ProE session, It will connect with the existing ProE session Open. When I use system command it work fine. But when I use ProEngineerStart it is not working.


void CShaft1Dlg::OnBnClickedButton1()
{



//system ("D:\\EngApps\\ptc\\WF3\\bin\\proe1.bat");
if(ProEngineerStart ("D:\\EngApps\\ptc\\WF3\\bin\\proe.exe",NULL)
!= PRO_TK_NO_ERROR)
{
printf("Could not connect to, or start, Pro/ENGINEER\n");
return;
}
}


extern "C" int user_initialize ()
{
MessageBox(NULL, "Pro/Toolkit App", "proe", MB_OK);
return 0;
}


extern "C" void user_terminate()
{
return;
}

You need to define the PRO_COMM_MSG_EXE environment variable before you launch a session of Pro/ENGINEER. Here is some example code that launches a session of Pro/ENGINEER connected to a Pro/INTRALINK workspace.

extern "C" ProError SetupProEnvironment() {


char szTemp[_MAX_PATH];


ProError pro_error = PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;


ProName pro_wszWsName;





//Setup Pro/ENGINEER environment variables


sprintf_s(szTemp, _countof(szTemp), "PRO_COMM_MSG_EXE=\"%s\"", g_szProCommMsgExe);


_putenv(szTemp);


sprintf_s(szTemp, _countof(szTemp), "PDM_LDB_PATH=%s\\%s", g_szInstallDir, ds_szTaskId);


_putenv(szTemp);





//Start Pro/ENGINEER 


pro_error = ProEngineerStart(g_szProBatchFile, NULL);


//Connect to the workspace 


ProStringToWstring(pro_wszWsName, "Workspace"); 


pro_error = ProWorkspaceRegister(pro_wszWsName);


return PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;


}

Hi


I already set PRO_COMM_MSG_EXE environment variable and it is working fine for Asynchronous console application. Basically I have to import a model into ProE and display it. After that i have to change the parameter(Dimension) etc. with my MFC form interactively.


Thanks
