NX Open for .NET and Visual Basic .NET

NX Open for .NET and Visual Basic .NET

NX Open for .NET and Visual Basic .NET

(OP)
I am new to NX Open for .NET, and would like some help as to how I can set up my environment in order to debug NX Open programs through the VB.Net debugger.  Any ideas?

RE: NX Open for .NET and Visual Basic .NET

You can use .NET in NX? I thought only GRIPS and C+ were available to write code for UG/NX...

RE: NX Open for .NET and Visual Basic .NET

You can use .NET for NX4, for certain. (Just checked on the help pages).  You do need the .NET framework installed separately, though.

RE: NX Open for .NET and Visual Basic .NET

NX/Open was first introduced in NX3. It was not that thorough, but you could do the basics and get some of your UG/Open applications to start using some of the NX/Open classes.

I have a couple documents regarding building .net application in NX. First one is how to build a NX Open .net application at: http://www.plmexchange.net/1010200577. The next one is how to convert a C++ journal file into an application at: http://www.plmexchange.net/1205200591 and finally location where UGS provides sample applications located in the UGII_BASE_DIR at: http://www.plmexchange.net/01162006103.

RE: NX Open for .NET and Visual Basic .NET

Forgot to say that NX4 has a lot more coverage and NX5 hopefully will be 90% or greater coverage, so there should be no reason to use anything else as the foundation. Plus the ability to use Java, C++, .Net (C#, VB), Knowledge Fusion to do your development work is a great benefit. No longer will we need to learn a new tool to do what we have been doing for years in another language.

GRIP and C do not have an interface into this new NX/Open  layer, they will continue to be supported in the legacy UG/Open interface, which also means they will not be enhanced. So It's time to quit developing in GRIP and C.
