[CRASH] - component.flatPattern.bendLinesBody on component with no bends

[gvisca44]

Was in the process of writing add-in that processes sheet metal components.

Found that component.flatPattern.bendLinesBody and component.flatPattern.extentLinesBody against a component with no bends causes crash.  Seems like component.flatPattern.bodies also causes a crash.

Crash report 336849264 sent.

A crash is never good, and even when you do something wrong, the API should fail and never crash. However, I created a very simple test case where I made a new design that contained a sheet metal part, inserted it into a new design, and then used the API to call the bendLinesBody property. I'm not seeing a crash, and it returns the body, so there must be something else that's causing it to crash. Can you post a test case and the code that reproduces the crash?

Will do @BrianEkins.

Just to be clear - because I mis-interpreted the symptoms initially.

The crash appears on sheet metal components that dont have bends (where initially I thought it was on linked components).  Just happened that my original tests included linked components that didnt have bends.

As requested.  The embedded image (which I have also included as attachment just in case) shows the progression of the script to the point of crash.

Thank you for providing the f3z + image, I was able to reproduce this and identify the issue. Will get this fixed!

Thanks John.

Is there somewhere I can track the fix ? Or will I receive notification ?

Unfortunately we don't have any public facing bug fix tracking, this specific fix should be out within the next month or so though.

In the meantime one workaround I can suggest is to compare the flatPattern.flatBody.faces.count (shouldn't crash) to the component.bRepBodies[0].faces.count - the counts are equal, then that means there are no bends in the flatpattern.
