Pro / Toolkit X JLink

hi<BR closure_uid_tw5dsk="1070">What is the difference between Pro / Toolkit and JLink?<BR closure_uid_tw5dsk="1071">When can each be used?<BR closure_uid_tw5dsk="1072">Handcuffs have examples of applications?<BR closure_uid_tw5dsk="1427"><BR closure_uid_tw5dsk="1073">grateful
 
Pro/TOOLKIT license is expensive, but you've much more capabilities than in JLink.
Pro/TOOLKIT is programming in C/C++, JLink is programming in Java.

That depends on the processes in your company!
 
I would like examples in manufaruta, so you can identify optimizations.<BR Rc="null" closure_uid_opt2qq="957">Using autoDrilling for example.
 
The main difference betwee Pro/TOOLKIT and the other Pro/ENGINEER APIs is the ability to create features. Only Pro/TOOLKIT can do this. Therefore if you want to create custom Pro/NC sequences you should take a look at what Pro/TOOLKIT has to offer in this area. I have created a few programs that create auxiliary and custom NC sequences for our router machines on the shop floor so Pro/TOOLKIT was sufficient for my purposes. If I am not mistaken it also has functionality for drilling sequences. Hope it helps...

To access this kind of information you will need Pro/TOOLKIT because it can access the feature element tree. That is where this data will reside. Look at feature element trees in the API Wizard.
 
We license the ToolKit My interest in this subject, it is only to identify possible optimizations in the manufacturing environment. We are evaluating other CAM software for possible subtitui
 
spinta,


There is not an Advanced license for Pro/TOOLKIT access to Pro/NC. I'm not sure why you linked that particular help document page... There are only Advanced licenses for Mechanica and 3D Drawings at this time.
 
I am sorry but if you look at the documentaiton of Pro/TOOLKIT for Pro WildFire 5.0, some functions regarding manufacturing like ProMfgprocitemElemtreeGet need the Pro/TOOLKIT for Advanced NC license.


That's all
 
spinta!


You are correct! I didn't know that license was available. The documentation page you linked doesn't document that license. I stand corrected. That license enables the programmatic access to Manufacturing Process Plan features a.k.a MPMLink so I don't think this would apply to ilson's inquiry. Am I mistaken ilson?


I have Creo/Elements Pro 5.0 M070 loaded. Does your version have that option documented?
