UF_SETUP_ask_geom_null (view source)
 
Defined in: uf_setup.h
 
Overview
Each UF_SETUP has four views: Program, Geometry, Machine Tool and Machining
Method. Each of these views has a special Group known as the NULL Group. In
the Geometry view the NULL Group contains those operations for which no
geometry is currently assigned. This function returns the NULL Group of the
Geomtry view.

Defined in: uf_setup.h
 
Overview
This function creates a UF_SETUP object in the part specified by 'part_tag'.
It uses the part 'template_name' as its template. The setup, views, groups and
operations of 'template_name' become the setup of 'part_tag'. No geometry
is loaded and no attempt is made to map the geometry in 'template_name' to
the geometry in 'part_tag'.

UF_SETUP_generate_clsf (view source)
 
Defined in: uf_setup.h
 
Overview
This function generates the CLSF for all the operations contained in
the specified group of the specified setup. It will use the instructions
(i.e., the Definition File and Event Handler) specified by 'clsf_name'. It
will write the generated CLSF to a file with name 'output_filename'. If
'output_filename' exists it will be erased before writing new data to it.

See the Note in the File Description regarding the relationship between the
'clsf_name' and the CAM resource files.

UF_SETUP_generate_program (view source)
 
Defined in: uf_setup.h
 
Overview
This function generates the NC program for all the operations contained in
the specified group of the specified setup. It will use the Post (i.e., the
Definition File and Event Handler) specified by 'post_name'. It will write
the generated NC Program to a file with name 'output_filename'. If
'output_filename' exists the output will be appended to the existing file.
If the behavior wanted is to overwrite the exsiting file, then the user
has to delete the file before calling this function.

See the Note in the File Description regarding the relationship between the
'post_name' and the CAM resource files.
