LogicalAttributes.xml
A LogicalAttributes.xml file, located in <Windchill>/codebase/LogicalAttributes.xml, is used to configure modeled attribute mappings from a "logical form" to its "external form". A mapping is required for all modeled attributes that represent an association from one object to another. For example some of the entries defined for the WTPart to WTPartMaster reference are:
<Class name="wt.part.WTPart">
<Property>
<LogicalForm>defaultUnit</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartMaster~MBA|defaultUnit</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>masterReference</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartMaster</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>name</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartMaster~MBA|name</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>number</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartMaster~MBA|number</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>organizationReference</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartMaster~MBA|organizationReference^WCTYPE|
wt.org.WTOrganization</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>organizationName</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartMaster~MBA|organizationReference^WCTYPE|
wt.org.WTOrganization~MBA|name</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>usedLineNumber</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartMaster~MBA|uses@WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartUsageLink~MBA|
lineNumber.value</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>usedLink</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartMaster~MBA|uses@WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartUsageLink</ExternalForm>
</Property>
</Class>
Using the example that "ext.cust.CustPart" extends wt.part.WTPart, and "ext.cust.SubPartMaster" extends wt.part.WTPartMaster, the following should be added to the site-specific file called <Windchill>/codebase/LogicalAttributesSite.xml:
<Class name="ext.cust.CustPart">
<Property>
<LogicalForm>defaultUnit</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
ext.cust.SubPartMaster~MBA|defaultUnit</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>masterReference</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
ext.cust.SubPartMaster</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>name</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
ext.cust.SubPartMaster~MBA|name</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>number</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
ext.cust.SubPartMaster~MBA|number</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>organizationReference</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
ext.cust.SubPartMaster~MBA|organizationReference^WCTYPE|
wt.org.WTOrganization</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>organizationName</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
ext.cust.SubPartMaster~MBA|organizationReference^WCTYPE|
wt.org.WTOrganization~MBA|name</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<LogicalForm>usedLineNumber</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
ext.cust.SubPartMaster~MBA|uses@WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartUsageLink~MBA|
lineNumber.value</ExternalForm>
</Property>
<Property>
<LogicalForm>usedLink</LogicalForm>
<ExternalForm>MBA|masterReference^WCTYPE|
ext.cust.SubPartMaster~MBA|uses@WCTYPE|
wt.part.WTPartUsageLink</ExternalForm>
</Property>
</Class>
