NXopen and Versions of NX Query

[KS1971]

Hi,

I've got a query regarding NXopen and versions of NX, I'm hoping somebody code clarify for me:

If you write an NXopen dll that let's say offsets a surface and you have referenced NXopen.dll from version 7.5 and called it MyOffsetSurface.dll. If you then run your dll in say NX8 but are still referencing the NX7.5 NXopen.dll does the offset command adopt the functionality of NX8 or does it retain the functionality of NX7.5? I'm guessing that the NXopen.dll (and the accompanying UF/UI dlls) are just a way of activating a command within the version of NX that you are running?

I ask as if you upgrade your version of NX, if the NXopen syntax has not changed do you need to upgrade your own dll's to reap the (hopeful) benefit of the later version of NX?

Thanks in advance

For any major NX release, you will want to examine your code for any necessary changes and recompile with the new dll files. For more info, see the NX help file, programming tools -> NX Open -> NX Open Programmer's Guide -> Release Upgrades.
