Cant find sample code

[rfink]

Where can I get the below indicated sample code. It is in the Inventor Help Utility, but I cant find it in the suggested directory.

A sample VBA macro to access iLogic can be found at the following location:

• Windows 7 and Windows 8

  Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor [version]\Samples\ iLogic Samples\API\iLogicAutoTest.ivb

In the sample code, the GetiLogicAddin function demonstrates how to access the iLogic Automation object in VBA or VB.

Here you go:

Public Sub RunMyRule()
   ' Run an external rule
   RuniLogicExt "C:\MyPath\MyRule.iLogicVb"
   ' Run an internal rule
   RuniLogicInt "MyRule"
End Sub

Private Sub RuniLogicInt(ByVal RuleName As String)
   Dim iLogicAuto As Object
   Dim oDoc As Document
   Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
   If oDoc Is Nothing Then
      MsgBox "Missing Inventor Document"
      Exit Sub
   End If
   Set iLogicAuto = GetiLogicAddin(ThisApplication)
   If (iLogicAuto Is Nothing) Then Exit Sub
   iLogicAuto.RunRule oDoc, RuleName
End Sub

Private Sub RuniLogicExt(ByVal RuleName As String)
   Dim iLogicAuto As Object
   Dim oDoc As Document
   Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
   If oDoc Is Nothing Then
      MsgBox "Missing Inventor Document"
      Exit Sub
   End If
   Set iLogicAuto = GetiLogicAddin(ThisApplication)
   If (iLogicAuto Is Nothing) Then Exit Sub
   iLogicAuto.RunExternalRule oDoc, RuleName
End Sub

Function GetiLogicAddin(oApplication As Inventor.Application) As Object
   Set addIns = oApplication.ApplicationAddIns
   Dim addIn As ApplicationAddIn
   On Error GoTo NotFound
   Set addIn = oApplication.ApplicationAddIns.ItemById("{3bdd8d79-2179-4b11-8a5a-257b1c0263ac}")
   If (addIn Is Nothing) Then Exit Function
   addIn.Activate
   Set GetiLogicAddin = addIn.Automation
   Exit Function
NotFound:
End Function

Mike,

Thanks, this is what I was looking for.

Do you know if there is any reference material (objects, methods, properties, ect) regarding the iLogic Add In.

Regards,

Ross
