NX Open - Get immidiate children

[NutAce]

Hello all,

I'm taking my first steps into NX Open using c# and have the following problem...

From an assembly I am able to produce a list of the child components...However it is returning a list of ALL the components in the Assembly.
I would like to see only the immidiate children (sub assemblies toplevels)...

What Ihave so far is;

                //get all parts in session and create List
                List<NXOpen.Part> newDisplayParts = new List<NXOpen.Part>();

                foreach (NXOpen.Part part in theSession.Parts)
                {
                    NXOpen.Assemblies.Component childComp = part.ComponentAssembly.RootComponent;
                    if (childComp != null)
                    {
                        foreach (NXOpen.Assemblies.Component comp in childComp.GetChildren())
                        {
                            //Checking if comp.protype is an actual NXOpen part is
                            if (comp.Prototype is NXOpen.Part)
                            {
                                theSession.ListingWindow.Open();
                                theSession.ListingWindow.WriteLine(comp.DisplayName);
                                NXOpen.Part prototype = (NXOpen.Part) comp.Prototype;
                                if (prototype == workPart)
                                {
                                    newDisplayParts.Add(part);
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }

How to proceed?

Don't loop through all the parts that are in the current NX session, only process the desired assembly part. In other words, eliminate this loop:

foreach (NXOpen.Part part in theSession.Parts)

Instead, get a reference to the assembly of interest and only process that one "part".
