) 

Parameters

BodyIn

Temporary body that replaces the base feature body

ApplyUserIds

True applies user-defined face IDs, false does not

Return Value

True if the original body was successfully replaced, false if not

You must create the replacement body as an imported body using IBody2::CreateBodyFromSurfaces or IBody2::CreateTempBodyFromSurfaces, as a copy of an imported body generated by these methods, or using translation from IGES in, STEP in, and so on.

If this feature is not the base feature or the body is not an imported body, then the method returns false.

This method replaces the base body or ref-surface body if you created either of these features from imported geometry. If child features exist, then you can use IFace2::GetFaceId to set the face IDs to both the old body and the replacement body before calling IFeature::SetBody2. For example, if you are expecting a child feature on a face of the old body to be mapped to a face on the replacement body, you need to set the same ID (integer) to these two faces. This mechanism enables child features to re-attach themselves to the replacement body because IFeature::ISetBody3 cannot do this automatically.
