iLogic linked files

Hi,

 

I'm looking for some alternative suggestions to my current workflow with iLogic. Using Vault, I copy design a master file (i.e. M00001.iam) and place a job unique prefix before it and all it's sub-parts (i.e. X0001-M00001.iam).

 

To create different configurations I use the iLogic Component.Replace command many times, so for this to work I need a way of including all possible design files in the copy design. So far I have achieved this by linking these files to my top level model through its parameters.

This causes a few issues. (Some may not appear too problematic but make our standard work practices difficult)

  • All linked files check in and out (not just the ones being used in the model).
  • Errors appear through the design doctor on files that are linked but not in model.
  • Linked files appear in the 'Where Used' Vault tab when not in the model/BOM.

If anyone can suggest alternatives to the linked files route I'd be grateful.

 

Thanks,

Craig
