Boolean Union of Solids - error in MicroStation Connect Edition SDK

Hi Jan,

Sorry, we are using:

MicroStation Connect Edition ver. 10.110036

and

MicroStation Connect Edition SDK ver. 10.130048

It seems like we are using an old version of MicroStation Connect Edition – and that is maybe the reason why we cant interactively unite the boxes – we have to update.

How do we set  parameter Merge parametric solid = off  in the SDK  BooleanUnion?

I have listed our code below.

Thanks for helping us!

BR,

Peder
 

Selected code lines: 

//       sew sheets together as smart solid
         bvector<ISolidKernelEntityPtr> sewn;
         bvector<ISolidKernelEntityPtr> unsewn;

         succes= SolidUtil::Modify::SewBodies (sewn, unsewn, &tool.front(), tool.size (), 2.5e1,10);
             x=succes;
             DUMPV8("solid2",&x,6);
             x=sewn.size();
             DUMPV8("sewn.size",&x,9);
         

         if (succes==0)   // get element descriptor for smartsolid
           {
            x=jfirst;
            DUMPV8("jfirst",&x,5);
            if (jlast-jfirst > 0 )
               {
                if (j == jfirst) uniontarget.push_back(sewn.front());
                if (j==jfirst) surfdegene[j*6+1]=-10;
                if (j > jfirst) uniontool.push_back(sewn.front());
               DUMPV8("solid3",&x,6);
                if (j == jfirst) kunion++;
                if (j > jfirst)
                {
                 succes=SolidUtil::Modify::BooleanUnion (uniontarget.front(), &uniontool.front (), uniontool.size ());
                 x=succes;
                 DUMPV8("solid4",&x,6);

                 if (succes==0) surfdegene[j*6+1]=-10;
                 if (succes == 0) kunion++;
                 if (succes!=0) jlastnew=j;
                 if (succes==0) kadd++;

                } 
               }                     
             else
              {
                uniontarget.push_back(sewn.front());
                kunion++;
              }

thanks for providing the details :-)

Accordingly to the best practices, may I ask you to:

• Change the topic subject to recommended format [MStn CE U13 C++] ...
• Edit the last post and to use Insert > Insert code (plus set language to C++) to share your code snippet?

Opps ... are aware how big fault it is, especially when you develop native code application?

One from the most important rule in MicroStation C++ development is to use the same version of MicroStation and MicroStation SDK!

I have no idea :-(

I guess somebody from Bentley (Brien Bastings?) can provide further details...
