Member Function Documentation

virtual NXOpen::INXObject* NXOpen::CAE::FEElement::FindObject ( const NXString & journalIdentifier )

virtual

Finds the NXOpen::NXObject with the given identifier as recorded in a journal.

An object may not return the same value as its JournalIdentifier in different versions of the software. However newer versions of the software should find the same object when FindObject is passed older versions of its journal identifier. In general, this method should not be used in handwritten code and exists to support record and playback of journals.

An exception will be thrown if no object can be found with the given journal identifier.

Returns: Created in NX3.0.0.

License requirements : None

Parameters

journalIdentifier Journal identifier of the object

Implements NXOpen::INXObject.

virtual NXOpen::INXObject* NXOpen::CAE::FEElement::FindObject ( const char * journalIdentifier )

virtual

Finds the NXOpen::NXObject with the given identifier as recorded in a journal.

An object may not return the same value as its JournalIdentifier in different versions of the software. However newer versions of the software should find the same object when FindObject is passed older versions of its journal identifier. In general, this method should not be used in handwritten code and exists to support record and playback of journals.

An exception will be thrown if no object can be found with the given journal identifier.

Returns: Created in NX3.0.0.

License requirements : None

Parameters

journalIdentifier Journal identifier of the object

Implements NXOpen::INXObject.

Returns: Created in NX11.0.0.

License requirements : None

Parameters

faceIndex face index

NXOpen::CAE::FENode* NXOpen::CAE::FEElement::GetMidNodeOnEdge ( int edgeIndex )

Returns the mid node for this element edge, if the element order CAE::FEElement::Order is CAE::ElementTypes::OrderMixed or an order that does not support mid nodes, then the node returned may be NULL.

Returns: Created in NX11.0.0.

License requirements : None

Parameters

edgeIndex edge index

std::vector<NXOpen::CAE::FENode *> NXOpen::CAE::FEElement::GetMidNodesOnFace ( int faceIndex )

If the Element Order does not support mid nodes nothing will be returned.

Returns: Created in NX11.0.0.

License requirements : None

Parameters
