An appropriate message appears if the installed SOLIDWORKS
version is not compatible with the current version of the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform.
Benefits:
You
are informed to install the supported version so that you can continue working in
compatible environments.
Depending on the installed SOLIDWORKS version and its
compatibility with the
3DEXPERIENCE Platform, you can either continue
using SOLIDWORKS or
get
blocked.
For a given 3DEXPERIENCE Platform release X, one of the following situations might occur:
- The last 3 SOLIDWORKS versions are supported: X, X-1, and X-2.
- A warning is displayed if the SOLIDWORKS version is X-3. Here, the
message suggests you upgrade to a higher version that is compatible with the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform. You can continue using SOLIDWORKS,
but
the version will be deprecated in the subsequent
releases.
- An error message is displayed if the SOLIDWORKS version is X-4. In
this case, you can proceed only when you install a higher version.
