bool IsBackgroundProcessingCompleted( 
   string FilePath

bool IsBackgroundProcessingCompleted(

Parameters

FilePath

Fully qualified path and filename of the drawing document opened in a background process

Return Value

SolidWorks recommends that you only use this method with ISldWorks::EnableBackgroundProcessing when you can open a drawing document quickly via user interface, but that same drawing takes significantly more time to open when opened programmatically.

To more efficiently open a drawing document, that requires a lot of CPU time and no user input, programmatically:

1. Set ISldWorks::EnableBackgroundProcessing to true.
2. Open the drawing document by calling either ISldWorks::OpenDoc6 or ISldWorks::OpenDoc7.
3. Repeatedly request the status of the open operation by calling ISldWorks::IsBackgroundProcessingCompleted.
4. When the open operation is finished, set ISldWorks::EnableBackgroundProcessing to false.
