Get Components in Each BOM Table Row Example (C#)

This example shows how to get the components in each row of a BOM table annotation.

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Open install_dir\samples\tutorial\assemblyvisualize\food_processor.sldasm.
// 2. Create a drawing from the assembly.
// 3. Select Insert > Tables > Bill of Materials.
// 4. Select BOM Type > Parts only.
// 5. Select Part Configuration Grouping >
//           Display configurations of the same part as separate items.
// 6. Click the green check mark to accept the settings.
// 7. Ensure the namespace matches the name of your C# project.
//
// Postconditions: Inspect the Immediate window.
//
// NOTE: Because the model is used elsewhere, do not save changes to it.
