HD58543: SYNCHRONIZE OF A CCP LINK DOES NOT WORK, BUT STATUS IS FLAGED AS OK

APAR status

• Closed as Permanent restriction.

Error description

• Synchronize of a CCP Link does not work, but
  status is flaged  as OK
  .
  Problem: Between the two CATParts a CCP Link
  was builed. After a modification of the reference
  the Copy was not synchronized, but the status of
  the external reference was still flaged as OK.
  .
  Scenario:
  1. Start CATIA V5
  2. Load the both attached CATParts (File-Open).
  .
  Result... You find in the CATPart
  called "05_001__Kasten_unten__1234567__A__1__
  A.CATPart" a Solid called Solid.84. As you see in
  Edits/links, this solid is connected with a CCP link
  to the body "Tragwangen_GT01_Anguss_Id58452"
  of "Ref_Tragwangen_Id58452.CATPart".
  Note, that the Symbol (in the specification tree) is
  shown as synchronized and no Update is required.
  .
  3. Make again an additonal CCP Link of the
  Body "Tragwangen_GT01_Anguss_Id58452"
  (thtough the publication) of the
  CATPart "Ref_Tragwangen_Id58452.CATPart".
  .
  Result... You see, that the new copy has a different
  position. The position of the new copy is right.
  .

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM IS PERMANENT RESTRICTION IN
  CATIA
  .
  Incident Diagnosis
  CCP Link (which is a link created after a
  Copy/Paste as result with link) is OK whereas
  geometry (here the position in the 3D space) is not
  the same between 2 parts.
  .
  Restriction Explanation
  R&D can not fix the root cause because they need
  a scenario (provided by the user) that could
  explain the way data has been corrupted.
  .
  By-Pass
  The bypass is to sham a modification in the
  reference Part to force the synchronisation of the
  link. To do so :
  0. Open the two CATParts
  1. In tools/options/Part infrastructure/general tab,
  set the update to manual mode (that will let you
  see which modification impacts the 3D position of
  the reference part)
  2. Go on reference part
  3. Edit one of its Part feature or GSD feature (e.g.
  the first feature of the first geometrical set)
  4. In definiton pannel, change one of its parameter
  5. Come back to the former value
  6. Click OK
  7. An update is required in reference part, then
  update the part
  8. Go to the destination part
  9. An update is also required. The link becomes
  correctly synchronised after the update. The
  position in 3D space is now right.
