AP 203 -- Configuration Controlled Design

Sample Programs

GEOMETRY

Create a product with the common STEP structure needed to get started with geometry.

AP203E2_CC1

Create a product with all configuration data required by AP203 Conformance Class One.

ACTIVITY

Create AP203 design activity information with design releases and change requests for a fictional product.

ASSEMBLY

Construct an assembly relation between two products, relating the product structure and geometry.

WALK ASSEMBLY

NEW in v15! Analyze the products, shapes, and relations in a file to identify the assembly structure. Walk assembly and print key objects.

Other Files

config_control_design.ws: An example working set description containing recommended complex instance combinations (AND/ORs). Use this if you want to generate your own C++ classes with the EXPRESS compiler.
