IronPython and FEMAP

[LaMachine44]

Hi,

I need some help. I'm a "rookie" with IronPython.
I need to communicate between Rhino/GrasHopper andFEMAP but I don't know how to connect to an instance of Femap. I just wrote a few line to add femap.dll into my Ironpython script.

Can you help me ???

import sys
import clr

clr.AddReferenceToFileAndPath('C:\\Program Files\\Siemens\\Femap 2019.1\\femap.dll')
import femap

Thanks

The solution :

' ---- IronPython with FEMAP  ---- '
 
from System.Runtime.InteropServices import Marshal
app = Marshal.GetActiveObject("femap.model")
app.feAppMessage(0,"Hello world !")  'Print a message on femap
