SCM Postprocessor suddenly not working anymore --> Any Changes in Fusion?

blue983 — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 13:01:06 GMT

Hey all together,

I've got a strange problem:

Since months I'm working with a SCM Postprocessor (got it from here), see at the end of this call. It was doing fine all the time. Since today I've got the situation, that the postprocessing doesn't do like it should. Is there anyone else with this problem? Can someone help me, please?

Thanks a lot,

Steven

I work for NexGenCam . We're and Autodesk Advanced Partner, and we offer Advanced support. We can diagnose, tune or create post processors for hundreds of machines.

Email me. Robert@nexgencam.com. (paid for service) I'll send you a return email with what we need from you to fix the problem, along with an up front Quote, and coverage going forward. When you compare what it cost in frustration, down time, producing potential bad parts, or inaccurate information, our advanced support pays for itself in short order.

@blue983

Attach your model file here which is causing the issue,It seems like working fine here,

Kindly do not copy paste the code here it will make the post unreadable,

.zip the file and attach it here.

File>Export>.F3d
save the file and reattach the file to this thread.

Hello @blue983

there is an error inside the post processor.

In the function onTerminate, somebody used a variable called "arguments".

BUT "arguments" is a reserved keyword for the ECMAScript language.

A better solution would have been to name the variable args for example, or something totally different.

A lot of things had been disabled in this function, you can in fact replace the whole onTerminate function by this one :

function onTerminate() {
}

Or even eventually delete the function entirely.

Have a nice day.

Cheers.
