Other Resources—Creo TOOLKIT Documentation
Creo TOOLKIT is the C-language customization toolkit for Creo Parametric. It enables customers and third parties to expand Creo Parametric capabilities by writing C-language code and seamlessly integrating the resulting application into Creo Parametric. Creo TOOLKIT provides an extensive library of C functions that enables the external application to access the Creo Parametric database and user interface in a controlled and safe manner.
 |
Creo TOOLKIT is supported only for Creo Parametric. It is not supported for the other Creo applications.
|
The toolkit documentation includes an online source known as the APIWizard, and the User’s Guide in PDF format.
The APIWizard contains information about the function’s syntax in Creo TOOLKIT and descriptions from the User’s Guide.
In addition to the C language-based toolkit, Creo also provides a suite of toolkits for other languages such as Object-oriented languages like C++, JAVA, HTML, JavaScript, and Visual Basic.
