In order to set the classes to be used during the Bulk Loading operation, you should add/modify dedicated SmarTeam options using the SmarTeam System Configurator tool.
The syntax of the key is Bulk_Loading_CATIAFileType. The value of the key is the class to use for Bulk Loading in batch mode save. Ex:Bulk_Loading_CATPart="Standard CATIA Part" entry in SmTeam32 will set the default class for CATPart documents to Standard CATIA Part class.
To activate this development, the following environment variable:
CATIA_TEAM_PDM_FORCED_CLASS_NAMES_BULK_LOADING
should be set to 1.
This functionality is useful when saving a large amount of documents of one given file type. When saving lots of documents of various CATIA file types, the rule to save the objects will follow the SmTeam32 information. It is up to the user to check that the targetted class is consistent. When saving Drawing and a Part (Drawing>Part), the part may be saved to Standard CATIA Part. Thus, errors may appear in some cases.
