CCE has released updates of its Open Data eXchange (ODX) libraries.
"CCE's robust ODX libraries exist in order to read & write native CAD data, which is used by a number of leading MCAD software ISVs. The current release features important updates for supporting critical data attributes such as material properties," said Vinay Wagle, VP of Marketing & Sales.
The updated NX libraries feature a number of user requested enhancements:
- Attributes support has been enhanced for assembly files by providing the ability to read position overrides of an instance of its parent's context. Additionally, write instance properties (user-defined key-value parameters) in its parent's context have also been enhanced.
- Material support has been enhanced by supporting new materials definitions added to NX since version 6.0. With that being said, the reader can provide additional isotropic material properties including material strength, formability, & fatigue, as well.
- Writer functionality has been enhanced to support writing material data to part and assembly documents.
- Attributes support for bodies is enhanced by providing details of promoted bodies. In addition, multiple file processing has been improved by providing the ability to switch the processing between any of the already-opened documents.
