Overview
AP214 is STEP Part 214: Application Protocol for Core Data for Automotive Mechanical Design Processes. The standard was first published in 2001, replaced by a second edition in 2003, and a third edition published in 2010 as ISO 10303-214:2010(E). The third edition was withdrawn once AP242 was published in 2014.
Programming Notes
The AP214 schema is the same for all versions and is identified by
the
StplibSchemaType stplib_schema_ap214
enum.
RoseDesign * d; // schema "AUTOMOTIVE_DESIGN" stplib_put_schema (d, stplib_schema_ap214); switch (stplib_get_schema(d)) { case stplib_schema_ap214: // ap214 all editions }
When writing new files as AP214, we append the third edition ASN/1 version identifier to the schema name. You can examine the original schema name string found in the STEP Part 21 file with stplib_get_schema_name() or change it with stplib_put_schema_name()
{ 1 0 10303 214 1 1 1 } ASN/1 for first edition { 1 0 10303 214 2 1 1 } ASN/1 for second edition { 1 0 10303 214 3 1 1 } ASN/1 for third edition
The following schema names have also been seen in data and are
recognized as the stplib_schema_ap214
enum, but should
not be used for new data.
"AUTOMOTIVE_DESIGN_CC2"
- Seen in some old Pro-Engineer data from 1997. Probably something that escaped from CAXIF testing.
