CONNECT WorkSet in -WU role

Miroslav Mandl
Offline

Hi,

This question came from the development of our (3rd party) product, but is completely development unrelated.

We used to start MicroStation (V8i) with the -WU<our product>(.cfg) which MicroStation took in account and our application had everything configured via our configuration file.
In CONNECT there no such an option.

I now explored the options that the -WK<WorkSpace> and -WW<WorkSet> switches bring to me and even after going through quite a lot of the articles and discussions here, I wasn’t able to solve the main requests:

  1. Start our product with its own configuration and not interfere with configuration(s) when MicroStation is started standalone, and
  2. Having myProductWorkSet set, being able to open any DGN without MicroStation trying to associate the DGN with the current workset.

Is there perhaps a variable that would tell MicroStation to stop insisting on the DGN file association?

Or is there another way how to achieve the above described requirements?

In case there is already an answer to my question, please redirect me to that, I wasn’t able to find it.

Thank you in advance,
Miroslav Mandl
