CimProjectData (object)

Overview The CimProjectData object provides the ability to search and return specific pieces of a project's configuration. The underlying APIs used by the CimProjectData object are the same as those used to browse point configuration on a remote project. In general, this object provides a convenient way to retrieve a set of attributes based on specified filter criteria. This object provides a read-only capability. To write configuration, please see the help file for the CIMPLICITY Configuration Object Model.
Example (CimBasic) 
Sub Main()
   ' This example retrieves all points beginning with A for Device MY_PLC
   ' in project MY_PROJECT and displays the point id and resource id of
   ' each matching item.
   Dim d as new CimProjectData
   d.Project = "MY_PROJECT"
   d.Entity = "POINT"
   d.Filters = "POINT_ID=A*,DEVICE_ID=MY_PLC"
   d.Attributes = "POINT_ID,RESOURCE_ID"
   Dim p as string
   Dim r as String
 top:
   if d.GetNext(p,r) = TRUE then
      MsgBox "Point Id = " & p & " Resource Id = " & r
      goto top
   End if
end sub

      cpd.Filters = "POINT_ID=PGM*";
      
      String[] vals = new String[2]; // returned attributes matching the filters
      Cimplicity.Trace("Get project points with IDs starting with \"PGM\"");
      
      int count = 0;
      
      while (cpd.Next(vals) == Cimplicity.COR_SUCCESS)

        count++;
      }
