.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function SetCurrentProfile( _
   ByVal Standard As System.String, _
   ByVal ProfileType As System.String, _
   ByVal ProfileSize As System.String _
) As System.Boolean
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ICostAnalysisStructural
Dim Standard As System.String
Dim ProfileType As System.String
Dim ProfileSize As System.String
Dim value As System.Boolean
 
value = instance.SetCurrentProfile(Standard, ProfileType, ProfileSize)
C# 
System.bool SetCurrentProfile(

True if the profile is set, false if not (see Remarks)

Remarks

A valid string for... Corresponds to name of the...
Standard Weldment profile folder, typically located in C:\Program Files\SolidWorks Corp\SOLIDWORKS\lang\lang\weldment profiles
ProfileType Profile types folder, typically located in C:\Program Files\SolidWorks Corp\SOLIDWORKS\lang\lang\weldment profiles\profile standard
ProfileSize Profile size file, excluding the filename extension, typically located in C:\Program Files\SolidWorks Corp\SOLIDWORKS\lang\lang\weldment profiles\profile standard\profile type

This method:

  • does not change the underlying geometry of the structural member; instead, this method only uses the specified profile to cost the body.
  • fails if the specified Standard, ProfileType, or ProfileSize values are invalid or incompatible with each other.
  • could invalidate the cost method.
