Catia CAA automation and RADE APIs together

[loganhill]

I am working on a software project using the CAA RADE API for Catia V5. I need to be able to use some functionality that the automation API has that the RADE API doesn't have. Does anyone know, in general, how to use the CAA automation API form within a CAA RADE application?

Refer to article about exposing CAA interfaces to Automation in CAA Encyclopedia.

In general, you declare Automation interface in IDL and implement it via TIE, as well as CATIVBExtension interface.

As a result you should be able to access your extension via .GetIten or .GetCustomerFactory methods.
