initialize_cdb_export_params

FileIO.initialize_cdb_export_params(params, major_version, minor_version)

Initialize specific CDB export parameters based on the given version.

This function sets the use_compact_format, export_fasteners_as_swgen and export_rigid_bodies_as_rbgen parameters of the provided ExportMapdlCdbParams object based on the given major and minor version numbers. Other parameters remain unchanged.

• Parameters:

  params : The CDB export parameters object to be modified.

  major_version : The major version number.

  minor_version : The minor version number.

• Returns:

  ExportMapdlCdbParams : The modified CDB export parameters object.

• Return type:

  ExportMapdlCdbParams

Notes

This is a beta API. The behavior and implementation may change in future.

The version is formed as “<major_version>r<minor_version>”, e.g., “24r1”, “25r2”. If the version is greater than or equal to “25r1”, the use_compact_format, export_fasteners_as_swgen and export_rigid_bodies_as_rbgen parameters are set to True. Otherwise, they are set to False.

Examples

>>> file_io = prime.FileIO(model=model)
>>> params = prime.ExportMapdlCdbParams()
>>> params = file_io.initialize_cdb_export_params(params, 24, 1)
>>> params.use_compact_format
False
>>> params.export_fasteners_as_swgen
False
>>> params.export_rigid_bodies_as_swgen
False

>>> file_io = prime.FileIO(model=model)
>>> params = prime.ExportMapdlCdbParams()
>>> params = file_io.initialize_cdb_export_params(params, 25, 2)
>>> params.use_compact_format
True
>>> params.export_fasteners_as_swgen
True
>>> params.export_rigid_bodies_as_swgen
True
