Is It Possible To Access Part Save Log Without Opening The Part
Is It Possible To Access Part Save Log Without Opening The Part
(OP)
Hi All:
probably wishful thinking, but is there a way to access a part's "save history", without actually opening the part fully. Basically I need to see dates and time for when the part was saved. Some of this parts are huge taking 20 min to open up. Just wondering if there's a faster way to do this.
Thanks

If you are opening assemblies then maybe switch your load option to structure only so the component parts won't load.

As cowski says, ug_inspect will return the information you're looking for.
If you're working in Teamcenter though, you'll need to find the .prt file in Teamcenter's Volumes.
Open a NX Command Shell
Type, ug_inspect -help for a full list of valid arguments. You can choose to use NO ARGUMENTS in this case though to give a verbose listing.
ug_inspect <filename.prt>
Good Luck

As of NX4.0.4 there is NXOpen API support for querying the NX history records in an NX part file.
UF_PART_ask_part_history
UF_PART_ask_num_histories
UF_PART_ask_nth_history
The routines require only a gateway license and are supported in both the internal (interactive - dll) and external (command line - exe) usage for both unmanaged (native) mode and managed (Teamcenter) mode.
There is sample code available at http://gtac.industrysoftware.automation.siemens.co...
that will use a list of part files (native or database managed) as input and report the NX part history information for each part.
This would avoid having to find the parts in the TC volumes (which is very likely impossible except for system admins on the database volume server(s)) for use with ug_inspect.exe. (or having to parse the ug_inspect.exe output to get only the history information)
HTH,
