I started programming C# RSA , I have difficulties to translate code from vb to c#. Please help me .

please write sample code

how to change:

1) tools / job preferences / materials / basic set / steel

how to change type of steel for example: put S355

RobotMaterialData Material;

2) how to

create a new section

standard

Database: Simple Catpro Family: HEA Section: HEA120 Section type Aluminum

3) on the http://www.robobat.com/n/ros/

There is a code In vb , I couldn’t translate all to c#, please correct me

It is original code:

Reading the basic geometry

Declare the main variable representing the Robot application and connect it to the currently running instance of Robot.

Dim robapp As IRobotApplication

Set robapp = New RobotApplication

Get the collection of all bars from the structure.

Set bar_col = robapp.Project.Structure.Bars.GetAll()

Iterate for consecutive bars from the collection.

For i = 1 To bar_col.Count

Get the object representing the following (i-th) bar in the collection.

Set bar = bar_col.Get(i)

Read required attributes of the i-th bar.

bar_num = bar.Number

start_node_num = bar.StartNode

end_node_num = bar.EndNode

Declare variables defining individual nodes.

Dim start_node As IRobotNode, end_node As IRobotNode

Get the node with start_node_num number from the server.

Set start_node = robapp.Project.Structure.Nodes.Get(start_node_num)

Read the values of coordinates x, y, z for the node with start_node_num number.

start_node_x = start_node.X

start_node_y = start_node.Y

start_node_z = start_node.Z

Get the node with end_node_num from the server and read its coordinates.

Set end_node = robapp.Project.Structure.Nodes.Get(end_node_num)

end_node_x = end_node.X

end_node_y = end_node.Y

end_node_z = end_node.Z

Free all declared variable references.

Set bar = Nothing

Set start_node = Nothing

Set end_node = Nothing

Repeat the operation of reading data for the next bar from the collection.

Set bar_col = Nothing

Set robapp = Nothing

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mine code:

IRobotApplication robApp;

robApp = new RobotApplicationClass();

IRobotCollection bar_col = robApp.Project.Structure.Bars.GetAll();

for (int i = 0; i <= Convert.ToInt32(bar_col.Count); i++)

{

// IRobotBar bar = bar_col.Get(i);

// this below is something wrong

IRobotBar bar = robApp.Project.Structure.Bars.Get(i);

}

Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type 'RobotOM.IRobotDataObject' to 'RobotOM.IRobotBar'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?) G:\nauka c# cad\Robot02\Robot02\Form1.cs

4) Remove selected load cases

Declare the main variable representing Robot aplication and its connection to the currently running program instance.

Dim robapp As IRobotApplication

Set robapp = New RobotApplication

Dim casesrv As IRobotCaseServer

Set casesrv = robapp.Project.Structure.Cases

Get the collection including all load cases.

Dim casecol As IRobotCaseCollection

Set casecol = robapp.Project.Structure.Cases.GetAll()

Iterate for consecutive cases from the collection.

For i = 1 To casecol.Count

Get i-th case

Dim c As IRobotCase

Set c = casecol.Get(i)

Remove the case from the server if the analysis type is different from the linear static analysis.

If c.AnalizeType <> I_CAT_STATIC_LINEAR Then casesrv.Delete c.Number

Free variable representing a case

Set c = Nothing

Repeat the iteration for the following case.

IRobotApplication robApp;

robApp = new RobotApplicationClass();

IRobotCaseServer casesrv;

casesrv = robApp.Project.Structure.Cases;

IRobotCaseCollection casecol;

casecol = robApp.Project.Structure.Cases.GetAll();

for (int i = 0; i <= Convert.ToInt32(casecol.Count); i++)

{

IRobotCase c;

c = Convert.ToInt32(casecol.Get(i));

if (c.AnalizeType != IRobotCaseAnalizeType.I_CAT_STATIC_LINEAR)

// this below is something wrong

casesrv.Delete(c);

}

5)

IRobotStructure str;

str = robApp.Project.Structure;

// Generate new load case.

IRobotSimpleCase caseExp;

caseExp = robApp.Project.Structure.Cases.CreateSimple(str.Cases.FreeNumber, "caseExp",

IRobotCaseNature.I_CN_EXPLOATATION, IRobotCaseAnalizeType.I_CAT_STATIC_LINEAR);

// Define load record types.

caseExp.Records.New(IRobotLoadRecordType.I_LRT_NODE_FORCE);

IRobotLoadRecord LoadRecord; // rec

LoadRecord = (RobotLoadRecord)caseExp.Records.Get(1);

// this below is something wrong

LoadRecord.SetValue(IRobotBarUniformRecordValues.I_BURV_LOCAL, true);

6)

IRobotViewDisplayParams ParamsDisplay01;

ParamsDisplay01 = ? (how to declare )

ParamsDisplay01.Set(IRobotViewDisplayAttributes.I_VDA_STRUCTURE_NODE_NUMBERS, true);

IRobotApplication robApp;

robApp = new RobotApplicationClass();

   IRobotCollection bar_col = robApp.Project.Structure.Bars.GetAll();

           for (int i = 0; i <= Convert.ToInt32(bar_col.Count); i++)

           {

           //   IRobotBar bar = bar_col.Get(i);



// this below is something wrong

                IRobotBar bar = robApp.Project.Structure.Bars.Get(i);

           }

Should be:
            IRobotApplication robApp = new RobotApplication();
            IRobotCollection bar_col = robApp.Project.Structure.Bars.GetAll();
            for (int i = 0; i < bar_col.Count; i++)
            {
                   IRobotBar bar = bar_col.Get(i+1);

                // or
               // IRobotBar bar = (IRobotBar)robApp.Project.Structure.Bars.Get(i+1);

            }

            IRobotStructure str;

            str = robApp.Project.Structure;

            // Generate new load case.

            IRobotSimpleCase caseExp;

            caseExp = robApp.Project.Structure.Cases.CreateSimple(str.Cases.FreeNumber, "caseExp",

                IRobotCaseNature.I_CN_EXPLOATATION, IRobotCaseAnalizeType.I_CAT_STATIC_LINEAR);

            //      Define load record types.

            caseExp.Records.New(IRobotLoadRecordType.I_LRT_NODE_FORCE);

IRobotLoadRecord LoadRecord; // rec

LoadRecord = (RobotLoadRecord)caseExp.Records.Get(1);

// this below is something wrong

LoadRecord.SetValue(IRobotBarUniformRecordValues.I_BURV_LOCAL, true);

I assume you want to add nodal force:
            IRobotStructure str = robApp.Project.Structure;
 
            // Generate new load case.
            IRobotSimpleCase caseExp;
            caseExp = robApp.Project.Structure.Cases.CreateSimple(str.Cases.FreeNumber, "caseExp",
                IRobotCaseNature.I_CN_EXPLOATATION, IRobotCaseAnalizeType.I_CAT_STATIC_LINEAR);
            //      Define load record types.
            caseExp.Records.New(IRobotLoadRecordType.I_LRT_NODE_FORCE);
 
  IRobotLoadRecord LoadRecord = caseExp.Records.Get(caseExp.Records.Count);
 
            
LoadRecord.SetValue((short)RobotOM.IRobotNodeForceRecordValues.I_NFRV_FZ,-10);
            LoadRecord.Objects.FromText ("1") ;

IRobotViewDisplayParams ParamsDisplay01;

ParamsDisplay01 = ? (how to declare )

ParamsDisplay01.Set(IRobotViewDisplayAttributes.I_VDA_STRUCTURE_NODE_NUMBERS, true);

Should be

            IRobotView robotview = robApp.Project.ViewMngr.GetView(1);
            robotview.ParamsDisplay.Set(IRobotViewDisplayAttributes.I_VDA_STRUCTURE_NODE_NUMBERS, true);

Thank You

Your solution for these points is proper.

If You don't mind please writethe 1) and 2)

1) tools / job preferences / materials / basic set / steel

how to change type of steel for example: put S355

RobotMaterialData Material;

2) how to create a new section

New profile

standard Database: Simple Catpro

Family: HEA Section: HEA120 Section type Aluminum

I tried myself but it is not what I would like to achieve:

            IRobotProjectPreferences ProjectPrefs;
            ProjectPrefs = robApp.Project.Preferences;
            ProjectPrefs.SetActiveCode(IRobotCodeType.I_CT_RC_THEORETICAL_REINF, "BAEL91");

            IRobotMaterialDatabase material;
            material = ProjectPrefs.Materials;
           // material.Name = IRobotMaterialDatabase

            RobotMaterialData Material;
            Material = (RobotMaterialData)label.Data;
            Material.Type = IRobotMaterialType.I_MT_CONCRETE;

I hope you meant this:
            robApp.Project.Preferences.Materials.Load("Eurocode");
            RobotBar Bar = (RobotBar)robApp.Project.Structure.Bars.Get(bar_number);
            Bar.SetLabel(IRobotLabelType.I_LT_MATERIAL, "S355");

2) how to   create a new section

New profile

  standard   Database: Simple Catpro

Family: HEA Section: HEA120

robApp.Project.Preferences.SetCurrentDatabase(IRobotDatabaseType.I_DT_SECTIONS, "SIMPL");
IRobotLabel Section = robApp.Project.Structure.Labels.Create(IRobotLabelType.I_LT_BAR_SECTION,"HEA 120");
IRobotBarSectionData SData = Section.Data;
SData.LoadFromDBase("HEA 120");
robApp.Project.Structure.Labels.Store(Section);

RobotBar Bar = (RobotBar)robApp.Project.Structure.Bars.Get(bar_number);

Bar.SetLabel(IRobotLabelType.I_LT_BAR_SECTION, "HEA 120");
