Error description

• Problem
  Performance in extracting and exporting wire
  information from Catia to Saber is unacceptable.
  .
  Scenario
  Note that the SaberHarness / Catia V5 Interface
  (CatiaR16Ext_win_x86) developed by Synopsys
  must be installed prior to test.
  .
  Step by step for exporting the wires to Saber:
  1. Open harness 82051346 from attached zip-file,
  Export wires.zip
  2. Switch into design mode
  3. Make sure that you are in the Electrical wire
  routing workbench
  4. Select the filtering criteria defintion button and
  read the xml_info
  file
  5. Choose Tools - Export to SaberHarness- Export
  wires
  .
  Step by step for exporting the bundles to Saber:
  1. Open harness 82051346 from attached zip-file ,
  Export wires.zip
  2. Switch into design mode
  3. Make sure that you are in the Electrical wire
  routing workbench
  4. Select the filtering criteria defintion button and
  read the xml_info
  file
  5. Choose Tools - Export to SaberHarness- Export
  bundles

Comments

• Dear customer,
  .
  The way used to retrieve wire information in HTML
  export is not the same. In HTML export, all children
  of the session are listed (with
  CATIProduct::GetAllChildren) and filtered on
  CATIElecAttrAccess interface, then filtered by wire
  type using CATIElecAttrAccess::GetElecType. This
  is a N scan where N = # of products in session.
  .
  In the Saber export scan, you are using
  CATIEwrRouteSegment to retrieve all route
  segments and then using ListConductors you are
  retrieveing all the wires for each segment. This is a
   N  scan (N for route segments * N for wires
  retrieval of each route).
  .
  The N scan will always be faster than the N  scan
  no matter any performance improvement is done
  on the used methods.
  .
  Best regards,
  CAA support team.
