Teamcenter 9 and GRIP routines

[toniechang]

We have a bunch of old GRIP routine that perform various tasks (attributes settings, master model drawing cration ...) in NX4
Now, the company wants to use Teamcenter 9 and I'm wondering : does anything has to be updated in our GRIP files to allow them to work with Teamcenter ?

Yes...the list includes, but is not limited to, the following:
1)Anytime you access a part file name, you have to encode and/or decode the partname/revision via UGMVRE and UGMVRD respectively
2)Retrieving the latest revision data can be tricky, as I always ran into that pesky character limit restriction when cycling thru the db
3)Depending on if/how/where you deal with a 'standard library' of dwg formats, pattern data, UDF's, pallets, etc.... will impact the amount of code tweaking you do.
YMMV.

CAD should pay for itself, shouldn't it?

Hum, we are in the implementation process (3 months) ... and that question will be analysed next Monday !
I'll keep you informed, for sure.
