*clearallunresolvedids

Removes from the unresolved IDs database all entries for a specified entity type.

Syntax

*clearallunresolvedids entity_type

Type

HyperMesh Tcl Modify

Description

When importing a file that references entities that are in another file that is not imported at the same time, those entities are recorded and protected from overwrite so that the links will not be lost. This way, fragments of a larger model can be edited while keeping links to the other parts of the model intact.

If another fragment of the larger model containing some of the unresolved references is imported, HyperMesh will complete the links between the two model fragments and remove the protected entity IDs from the unresolved IDs database.

If you wish to discard all of those links for a certain entity type, this command will clear the unresolved IDs from the database for that entity type.

Normally, the feinput system handles everything automatically. Therefore, the need to use this command is very rare and is provided for situations that need to exactly target the creation of new entities to fulfill the unresolved links.

Inputs

entity_type: The type of entity to remove unresolved IDs for.

Examples

To remove all unresolved IDs for properties:

*clearallunresolvedids props

Errors

Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect errors, you can use the catch command:

if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
   # Handle error
}
