Hello,

In my CHook project, when i use child classes of TlToolMill (TlToolEndmill/TlToolReamer) i have some compilation error:

>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual __thiscall TlToolEndmill::~TlToolEndmill(void)" (??1TlToolEndmill@@UAE@XZ)

1>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall TlToolEndmill::TlToolEndmill(void)" (??0TlToolEndmill@@QAE@XZ)

I'm just declaring a TlToolEndmill variable:

TlToolEndmill endmTool;

I dont have problem when i use the TlToolMill class.

Which library had to be referenced in my project?

I've referenced all the .lib that i could find in the sdk/debug directory with no effect:

mastercam.lib

mccore.lib

UICtrls.lib

MCMachineDef.lib

MCMill.lib

MCCE.lib

MCControl.lib

MCGeomSld.lib

MCIk.lib

MCKernel.lib

MCLathe.lib

McMatss.lib

MCMSurf.lib

MCMultiax.lib

MCPost.lib

MCPrvVerFile.lib

MCRouter.lib

MCRtClasses.lib

MCUI5Ax.lib

MCVerify.lib

MCWire.lib

Did i miss something?

Thanks for your help.

Ok thanks for your quick reponse.

Hello,

I have to develop an interface between MasterCAM and our Tool Database System.

So i need to transfert Tool and Holder descriptions from our software to MasterCam.

By using the NetHook API i've seen that the tool creation is easy (EndMillFlatTool, etc...) but i can't find how to manage the Tool Holder:

-the default holder parameters ( Holder Length and diameter) displayed in the "Define Tool" window

-the holder stored in a holder library

is it possible to do that with the NetHook API or do i have to use the CHook API?

Thanks for your help.

PS: I'm using the X5 MU1 version.

Thank You

Hi,

I need to build an user interface with the list of the solids.

So i would like to know, how to get the name of all the solids which are present in a MasterCam Project.

I don't know if the NetHook permit this (i don't think) or if i need to call a CHook.

But i don't know where i should search, if somebody can't help me !

Thank You,

Best Regards

Finaly,

Create a CHook,which is managed by a NETHook it's the best way to get more information about the MasterCam's object.

Thanks to Roger Martin for his help.

I try to create a CHook wich retrieve this specific information and pass it back to my NETHook as well.

It's may be easier.

thanks !

Thanks Roger,

In fact i would like to get the infos in the struct "group_pg3"

which is in "op_group_info",

which is in "op_group",

And in the MCCore.dll i found the function :

op_group* TpGrpList::GroupByName(char *Name)

With the EntryPoint =

"?GroupByName@TpGrpList@@QAEPAU_op_group@@PAD@Z".

So i try that in my C# code :

[DllImport("MCCore.dll", EntryPoint ="?GroupByName@TpGrpList@@QAEPAU_op_group@@PAD@Z")]

I'M NOT SURE OF THE PARAMATER(ref string Name) AND THE RETURN(IntPtr) //////////////

private int GetStockInfo(string NameMachine)

But finally i get the three messages box :

DMU_50_EVOLUTION //It's my Machine : OK

DMU_50_EVOLUTION //It's my Machine : OK

0 //Null Pointer (i don't understand)

Can you please give more informations about my problems ?

Does the EntryPoint change with the version of the dll ?

And to get the infos in group_pg3 with the "Pointer" ?

do i must define the structure like this :

[structLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]

AND

AND ETC... ?

Thanks for your answers!
