License requirements: nx_masterfem (“Finite Element Modeling”) OR nx_design_sim (“NX Design Simulation”)

SetResultReference

AlternateFemRepresentationSourceBuilder.SetResultReference

Sets the result reference

Signature SetResultReference(pResultRef)

Parameters:pResultRef (NXOpen.CAE.SimResultReference) – Result Reference associated to the Fem Data Set.

Validate

AlternateFemRepresentationSourceBuilder.Validate

Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called.

If the component is not in a state to commit then an exception is thrown. For example, if the component requires you to set some property, this method will throw an exception if you haven’t set it. This method throws a not-yet-implemented NXException for some components.

Signature Validate()

Returns:Was self validation successful
Return type:bool
