iLogic Error

[Anonymous]

I have an assembly which is driven by ilogic and uses iparts.

Occasionally I start getting errors and I'm not entirely sure why. It can be working fine one minute, and the next I will recieve the pictured error.

Anyone have any idea why this happens?

@Anonymous,

Just guessing that some iparts may be belongs to library folder. If that is case, refer suggestion in the below link.

Can you please provide non confidential data and steps to test the behavior?

Thanks and regards,

Hi Chandra,

Thanks for getting back to me. The iParts are actually not in the library. Often deleting my working directory and getting the files again from vault fixes the issue.

But it can be tedious to do this every few uses of the main assembly.

Do you have any idea what the problem could be?

How is the deletion of working directory happening? Is it automatic or manually deleted?

It's a manual process

@Anonymous,

If the folder is deleted manually, error persists to continue.

Why does that have an effect?

@Anonymous ,

Due to non existence of iPart in working folder, error is throwing from iLogic.

That error shows up when the iparts are in the woking directory, I usually fix it by deleting and re-downloading.

Do you have any idea why it would show that error even when the files are in my working directory?

Have you tried to define or add the filepath from the parts to the code?

The iPart is driven by the row change code within ilogic.

How would I incorporate the path into that?

Thanks,

Each configuration in an iPart has his own file.

Usually the iPart files will be in a folder wich u can usually find in the folder where you saved the iPart.

The code is currently as pictured.

The assembly drives the ipart row to change, depending on a parameter selection.

Is this not the correct way to do it?

It'll work a few times, and then there are times where I have to delete all the files and get them again because it throws an error.

It should be a correct way to do it but I don't use iParts often becouse it doesn't create adjustable parts easy.

Also I have a little guide for how to update parts and safe them with unique names based on parameters maybe this will help you out with an drop down inputbox.
