27 This is an implementation of Parasolid interface to be used as plugin for
28 SALOME Geometry module. It provides a functions to import CAD models
29 stored in Parasolid format (*.x_t, *.xt files) into SALOME study.
35 See the INSTALL file for more information.
41 1. Set environment (DO NOT FORGET to correct path)
43 * Set XTPLUGIN_ROOT_DIR variable that should point to the XT plugin
44 installation directory. It is required for SALOME Geometry module to
45 automatically detect a plugin (see APPENDIX below). For example:
49 % setenv XTPLUGIN_ROOT_DIR /path/to/the/XTPLUGIN
53 % export XTPLUGIN_ROOT_DIR=/path/to/the/XTPLUGIN
55 * Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to point to the OCCT Parasolid XDE product
56 libraries, for example:
60 % setenv XT_ROOT_DIR /path/to/the/XT-6.9.0
61 % setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${XT_ROOT_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
65 % export XT_ROOT_DIR=/path/to/the/XT-6.9.0
66 % export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${XT_ROOT_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
68 * OCCT Parasolid XDE product requires also an OCCT license library.
69 Normally OCCT license library is distributed with OCCT Parasolid XDE
70 product, but it can also be distributed separately. In latter
71 case you might need to set-up environment to point to the OCCT
72 license library, as follows:
76 % setenv OCCLICENSE_ROOT_DIR /path/to/the/OCCLicense-6.9.0
77 % setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${OCCLICENSE_ROOT_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
81 % export OCCLICENSE_ROOT_DIR=/path/to/the/OCCLicense-6.9.0
82 % export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${OCCLICENSE_ROOT_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
86 * Run SALOME and activate Geometry module.
88 * Import the Parasolid file:
92 In the "Import" dialog box choose file type: Parasolid Files ( *.x_t *.xt ).
93 Browse and select the file and click "Open" button. New object (shape)
94 will appears in the SALOME object browser.

106 Since SALOME version 7.4.0, Geometry module implements a mechanism to
107 automatically detect plugins. To set-up the plug-in to SALOME Geometry
108 module, it is just necessary to set XTPLUGIN_ROOT_DIR environment
109 variable to point to the installation directory of XT plugin as described
110 in paragraph "Usage" above.
112 In earlier versions of SALOME there is no such mechanism. To use XT
113 plugin within SALOME Geometry module, it is necessary to specify
114 GEOM_ENGINE_RESOURCES_DIR environment variable to point to the XT
115 plugin's resources directory, for example:
119 % setenv GEOM_ENGINE_RESOURCES_DIR ${XTPLUGIN_ROOT_DIR}/share/salome/resources/xtplugin
123 % export GEOM_ENGINE_RESOURCES_DIR=${XTPLUGIN_ROOT_DIR}/share/salome/resources/xtplugin
