Get and Set Connection Point Feature Data Example (VB.NET)
This example shows how to get and set data for connection point features.
'----------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Preconditions:
' 1. Ensure that the latest SOLIDWORKS Design
Library is loaded.
' 2.
Drag and drop design library > routing > electrical > db9 male.sldprt
'
into the main view.
' 3.
Observe CPoint1 in the FeatureManager design tree.
' 4. Run (F5) this macro.
'
' Postconditions:
' 1. Inspect the Immediate Window.
' 2.
CPoint1 is now MyCPoint in the FeatureManager design tree.
'
' NOTE: Because this is a Design Library part, close it without saving
changes.
