DesignateConnections(Project,String,DesignateOverwrition,Boolean,Boolean,AvoidIdenticalDesignations,Visibility,Int32[],Int32[],Boolean[]) Method

In This Topic

Designate connections (wires) with connection definition point.

Syntax

C#
C++/CLI

public void DesignateConnections( 
   Project oProject,
   string strSchemaName,
   ConnectionService.DesignateOverwrition rOverwriteMode,
   bool bMarkAsManual,
   bool bRegenrateConnections,
   ConnectionService.AvoidIdenticalDesignations avoidIdenticalDesignationsKind,
   ConnectionService.Visibility visibilityKind,
   int[] nStartValues,
   int[] nIncrements,
   bool[] bGroup
)

public:
void DesignateConnections( 
   Project^ oProject,
   String^ strSchemaName,
   ConnectionService.DesignateOverwrition rOverwriteMode,
   bool bMarkAsManual,
   bool bRegenrateConnections,
   ConnectionService.AvoidIdenticalDesignations avoidIdenticalDesignationsKind,
   ConnectionService.Visibility visibilityKind,
   array<int>^ nStartValues,
   array<int>^ nIncrements,
   array<bool>^ bGroup
)

Parameters

oProject: Project in which the connections will be designated.
strSchemaName: Name of the scheme, which is used for the wire numbering.
rOverwriteMode: Mode to determine whether already existing connection designations will be overwritten. Valid values are\:0, 1, and See enum DESIGNATE_OVERWRITE_MODE.
bMarkAsManual: If this flag is set to true, the created connection designations will be marked as "manually set".
bRegenrateConnections: If set to true, connections in the project will be updated prior to running the connection designation.
avoidIdenticalDesignationsKind: Mode to avoid multiple designations(0 = None, 1 = In selection, 2 = In whole project, 3 = In each reset-range).
visibilityKind: Mode to change visibility of designations(0 = Do not change, 1 = All visible, 2 = Visible once per page and extent) .
nStartValues: Start-values for all defined counters and subcounters in scheme.
nIncrements: Step-values for all defined counters and subcounters in scheme.
bGroup: Group all defined counters and subcounters in scheme.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
ArgumentException	\Parameters contained invalid values.
ApplicationException	\Internal interface necessary for wire designation could not be created.
Eplan.EplApi.Base.BaseException	An error occurred during wire designation. Pleas read the exception message.
InvalidScheme	An error occurs when used scheme name doesn't exist

Remarks

If no scheme exists under the given scheme name (strSchemaName), an ArgumentException is thrown. If strSchemaName is set to an empty string, the last-used scheme will be used which is currently set in GUI. Unlike in the GUI, connections are not always generated, but only if bRegenrateConnections is set to true.
