Invokes the EDMp21Handler to produce a STEP Physical File representation of the population of an edmModel in the remote EDMdatabase specified by the given server context. The STEP Physical File format is defined in ISO 10303-21: Clear text encoding of the exchange structures. A STEP Physical File is also referred to as a Part 21 file. STEP Physical File is one of the implementation forms of ISO 10303, and can be used to exchange data between two EDMdatabase s or between one EDMdatabase and any ISO 10303-21 conformant application. The STEP Physical File can also be used for long-term archiving of the data. The Header Section part of the STEP Physical file can be produced from an existing header model in the EDMdatabase or a default Header Section can be produced when no header model is specified as input argument to this function. A header model is a model of the HEADER_SECTION_SCHEMA defined in ISO 10303-21. The default Header Section can be configured by setting the EDM system variable EDM_STEP_FILE_AUTHOR.
Arguments
| Type | Name | Comment |
| SdaiUnsignedInt | serverContextId | Context identification, from edmiDefineServerContext |
| SdaiString | remoteModelRepositoryName | The name of the edmRepository in the remote EDMdatabase that contains the edmModel. Repository names are case sensitive. |
| SdaiString | remoteModelName | The name of the edmModel. Model names are case sensitive. |
| SdaiString | remoteHeaderModelRepositoryName | The name of the edmRepository in the remote EDMdatabase that contains the STEP Header Model. Repository names are case sensitive. |
| SdaiString | remoteHeaderModelName | The name of the STEP Header Model that will be mapped to the Header Section in the resulting STEP Physical file. Model names are case sensitive. All instances in the STEP Header Model will be mapped to as is to the STEP Physical file Header Section, except for the attribute FILE_DESCRIPTION.IMPLEMENTATION_LEVEL which will be set according to the mapping method specified by one of the options CONFORMANCE_CLASS_1, CONFORMANCE_CLASS_2 and EDM_PRIVATE_FORMAT. The attribute FILE_NAME.TIME_STAMP will be set to current date and time. When the NO_HEADER_CHANGE option is set, the specified STEP header model will be mapped as is, i.e., also the attribute values described above will be mapped from the specified STEP header model to the STEP Physical file. When this argument is left blank, a default STEP Header Section is generated. The default header section can be configured by setting the EDM system variable EDM_STEP_FILE_AUTHOR. |
| SdaiString | stepFile | The name of the STEP Physical File to create on the local disk. The default file extension is .stp |
| SdaiString | diaFileName | The name of an optional file that will receive the diagnostic information resulting from the generating of the STEP Physical File. If this argument is NULL, the diagnostics will be written to the EDMinterface current output device. The current output device can be defined by the edmiDefineOutputFunction operation. |
| SdaiString | shortNamesFile | The name of the file containing the mapping matrix between the full entity names and their corresponding unique short names. |
| SdaiInteger | options | See list of available options below. |
| SdaiInteger | realPrecision | Denotes the number of significant digits after the decimal point for REAL numbers in the resulting STEP Physical file. When <realPrecision> is set to zero, a system dependent default value is used. |
| SdaiInteger | nbWarnings | Variable that will receive the number of warnings resulting from exporting the STEP Physical file. |
| SdaiInteger | nbErrors | Variable that will receive the number of errors resulting from exporting the STEP Physical file. |
| EdmiError | sdaiError | Variable that will receive any error code resulting from exporting the data in the STEP Physical file it self. System errors in general will not be returned in this variable. |
| SdaiInvocationId | edmiInvocationId | Currently not used. |
Return Value
Options
| Option | Comment |
NO_STRING_ENCODING | Specifies that no encoding will take place when mapping a STRING data type to the STEP Physical file. The ISO 10303-21 specifies that all characters in a string with an ASCII value less than 32 or greater than 126 should be encoded in a STEP Physical file. |
NO_LINE_BREAKS | The exported instances will not be separated with new-line characters in the STEP Physical file. |
NO_HEADER_CHANGE | The header model specified by the <headerModelName> argument will be mapped to the actual STEP Physical file without any changes. Normally the mapping method, time stamp, and schema name will be provided by the EDMstepHandler function, but not when this option is set. This argument is only effective when a header model is specified in the <headerModelName> argument. |
SHORT_NAMES | The short names specified in the <shortNamesFile> argument will be used for entity names in the resulting STEP Physical file. |
KEPT_STEP_IDENTIFIERS | The instanceIds of the edmModel population will be mapped to the corresponding stepIDs in the STEP Identifier model before they are exported to a STEP file. |
EDM_IDENTIFIERS | Specifies that the instanceID will be used as instance identifiers in the STEP Physical File. This makes it easier to find the correlation between a stepIds in the STEP Physical file and their corresponding instanceIds in the EDMdatabase |
ZIPPED_FILE | The resulting exported STEP Physical file will be in a compressed file format. |
CONFORMANCE_CLASS_1 | The STEP Physical file will be exported according to ISO 10303-21:1994/TC1 CC1. The mapping format will be written to the header section of the STEP file. CONFORMANCE_CLASS_1 is the default mapping method. The options CONFORMANCE_CLASS_1, CONFORMANCE_CLASS_2, and EDM_PRIVATE_FORMAT are mutually exclusive. |
UTF8_ENCODED_FILE_NAMES | Use UTF-8 encoding for file names |
ONE_FILE_STEP_FILE_PACKAGE | Must be used with STEP_FILE_PACKAGE . Will create one STEP file that contains the model and all the associated data files. |
STEP_FILE_PACKAGE | Will allow the STEP file to have EDM types FILE and BLOG. Each data file within the model will be created as a separate file. |
NUMBER_OF_SUBTYPE_INSTANCES_STATISTICS | write the "number of subtype instances statistics" as comment on the STEP file. |
NO_COMMENT_SECTION | The created STEP file will no have the Header comment section. The header comment section includes information on: The EXPRESS Data Manager Version, Module, Step file Creation date, EDM Host, Database path, Database version, Database creation date, Schema name, Model name, Model creation date, EDMuser, EDMgroup, License ID and type, EDMstepFileFactory options |
ONLY_USER_DEFINED_ENTITIES | only instances of type USER_DEFINED_ENTITY will be written to the STEP file |
USE_MODEL_STRING_ENCODING | use the same string encoding (Code Page) on the sTEP file as in the actual EDMmodel |
EXCLUDE_USER_DEFINED_ENTITIES | no instances of type USER_DEFINED_ENTITY will be written to the STEP file |
NUMBER_OF_INSTANCES_STATISTICS | write the "number of instances statistics" as comment on the STEP file. |
HEADER_MODEL_ONLY | Only create header model |
CONFORMANCE_CLASS_2 | Enforce the file to be exported according to ISO 10303-21:1994/TC1 conformance class 2 format. Identification of the format is written to the Header Section of the resulting STEP file. For import it overrules the mapping method given in the Header Section of the actual STEP file such that the STEP file will be interpret according to ISO 10303-21:1994/TC1 CC2. |
