SYNTAX:
 
xpxWriteStepFileEx (repositoryName, modelName                 : STRING;                    headerRepositoryName, headerModelName     : STRING;                    STEPfile, diagFile, shortNamesFile        : STRING;                     options, realPrecisision                  : INTEGER;                       VAR nWarnings, VAR nErrors, VAR sdaiError : INTEGER)                     status                                    : INTEGER;
 
The xpxWriteStepFileEx function can be used to produce a STEP Physical File (Part 21 file) of specified model.
The arguments in the xpxWriteStepFileEx have the following meaning:

Argument:

Description:

repositoryName

Specifies the name of the data repository that holds the model to make a P21 representation of. Repository names are case sensitive

modelName

The name of the sdai model within the repository <repositoryName> that will be mapped to the actual STEP Physical File. A sdai model is uniquely identified by the <repositoryName> and <modelName> arguments

headerRepositoryName

Specifies the name of the data repository that holds the header model. Repository names are case sensitive

headerModelName

Name of a sdai model of the STEP Physical File Header Section that should be mapped to the Header Section of the actual STEP Physical File. The actual sdai model of the Header Section must be located in the repository specified by the <repositoryName> argument. This argument can be specified as an empty string or as indeterminate (question) meaning that the Header Section of the actual STEP Physical File will be produced according to a standard procedure

STEPfile

Fully qualified name of the file that will receive the actual STEP Physical File.

diagFile

Diagnostic file. The xpxWriteStepFileEx function will record all diagnostics found during mapping of the actual sdai model to the actual STEP Physical File on this <diagFile>. When the <diagFile> argument is set to an empty string or to indeterminate (question), then no diagnostic recording will be produced.

shortNamesFile

Short Entity Names file. When the xpxShortNames option is set, the xpxWriteStepFile will use the short entity names found on the specified shortNamesFile argument instead of the entity names found in the underlying schema of the actual sdai model mapped to the STEP file.
For information on the format of the file in argument <shortNamesFile>, see Short names in the EDMsupervisor User Guide.

options

The options are equivalent to the options used in the EDMinterface function edmiWriteStepFileEx.

realPrecisision

Specifies the precision of the REAL data type on the STEP file. Default value is used when <realPrecision> argument is set to zero.

nWarnings

This argument will receive the number of warnings detected during the xpxWriteStepFileEx operation.

nErrors

This argument will receive the number of errors detected during the xpxWriteStepFileEx operation.

sdaiError

If the xpxWriteStepFileEx operation is terminated due to errors in accessing the database, the argument <sdaiError> will receive the actual sdaiErrorCode causing the termination of the xpxWriteStepFileEx operation.

 
This function is equivalent to the EDMinterface function edmiWriteStepFileEx.
