PLM XML Schema The 'id' attribute is used for references between elements. It should not be use to encode other information. sdkname=IdObject plm:anyURIType is used in place of xsd:anyURI, since we want to allow filenames as well as genuine URIs. The ApplicationRef element is meant to relate the parent element (Product, Representation, etc) back to the owning entity in the sending application. Attributes: application: the context in which the contents of the label and version attributes make sense. Whether this field includes an application version number is up to the application, as long as it starts with something identifiable to the sending application. label: the string which identifies the application entity - the value of this field is only meaningful to the sending/authoring application. The receiving application can compare the contents of the attribute to test if two entities are the 'same' entity. But the actual value is meaningless to the receiving application. version: the optional string attribute which identifies the version of the application entity. This attribute can only be used to test if the versions of an entity are the same (i.e. the test is only meaningful if the label attribute values are the same). No version ordering can be deduced from the value. Similar to the label attribute, the version attribute contents are meaningless to the receiving application. sdkname=DescriptionObject The DescriptionBase type is an abstract base type for PLM XML types which have optional description and ApplicationRef. Attributes: name: descriptive or display name nameRef: References a multiple language version of name.

Sub-elements: Bound: If type is compound, the Bound sub-elements represent the sub-bounds, which may be simple or compound. This is a Zone defined by the intersection of a number of halfspaces. Each Halfspace is defined as the area of space behind a Plane (i.e. away from the Plane normal). If there is only one Plane, the Zone is a halfspace. Elements: Plane: Plane defining a halfspace createClass=true createClass=true createClass=true createClass=true createClass=true createClass=true createClass=true output=ignore output=ignore output=ignore output=ignore The Attribute element is an abstract element. Useful attributes (ones that include fields) must be derived from the Attribute element defined within this schema. The derived attributes will define their data elements to represent data fields. The derived attributes also need to be set as 'equivalent' to the Attribute element. This enables the new derived attribute to be inserted into documents wherever the Attribute element is allowed.

Attributes: path: The search path recursive: True if the subdirectories of the search directory must also be searched Enumeration to determine where where to find the files to load. local: From the directory of the parent assembly. specified: By using the explicit filenames stored in the loaded files (for example a CAD file for an assembly may contain explicit filenames for the CAD files of the sub-assemblies). This element defines an ordered list of search. Elements: SearchPath: One element per search path. (At least one). Attributes: location: This is an enum with values: local: From the directory of the parent assembly. specified: By using the explicit filenames stored in the loaded files (for example a CAD file for an assembly may contain explicit filenames for the CAD files of the sub-assemblies). The purpose of this element is to specify global options or parameters which control the precise way in which an application loads a Product Structure.

Elements: Representation: see representationRefs. The Part element is only provided for legacy compatibility. Use the ProductRevisionView element in its place. output=ignore This is a 'view' (e.g. 'design', 'manufacturing', 'maintenance'). Referenced by a ProductRevisionView.

Attributes: type: type of the Reference. occurrenceRef: reference to an Occurrence or InstancePath. pathRefs: a list of Instance elements defining a path through the Structure. pathRefs and occurrenceRef should not both be present. targetRef: reference to a RepresentationEntity. Sub-elements: EntityRef: (deprecated) reference to an Entity in a Representation. This must be a Representation of the 'bottom Structure' of the Occurrence or InstancePath. The GDE element represents an internal constituent of a Structure object, such as a Design Feature, Port, Annotation, etc. The Structure instances the GDE by means of a GDEInstance. Attributes: gdeInstanceRefs: a list of references to associated GDEInstances or GDEInstanceGroups. This is to allow the GDE to have internal structure. propertyRefs: reference to properties Elements: PropertyGroup A type of GDE which represents a non-revisionable connection between InstancePaths in an assembly. A Connection is a structured object which represents a connection between a number of InstancePaths in an assembly. This is a revision of a Connection. This is a 'view' (e.g. 'design', 'manufacturing', 'maintenance') of a revision of a Connection. This abstract datatype describes a single feature within the feature tree hierarchy. The feature description contains basic information such as name and type, as well as information to link the feature to the originating application. Parameter descriptions can also be included in the feature description. Attributes: nextFeature - (optional) the XML id of the next feature in the feature hierarchy. targetFeature - (optional) the XML id of the target feature that this feature relies on. The target feature defines which feature forms the resultant entity. toolFeature - (optional) the XML id of the tool feature that this feature relies on. suppressed - (default=false) TRUE if the feature is suppressed in the feature tree. editable - (default=false)) TRUE if any parameters of the feature may be edited. Elements: Type - (1) element describing the type of feature. This is an application specific type. The receiving application is not meant to deduce or interpret the type but could use it to classify or group the feature. Parameter - (0 or many) elements to describe the parameters associated with the feature. It is up to the application to decide what parameters to exchange or describe within the feature description. EntityRef - (0 or many) references to entities on another representation (e.g. a BRep) expressed as PLMXML references. validate=skipName validate=skipName validate=skipName Generic feature element which can be used to enumerate 'any' parameterised feature. No semantic or specialised information is exchanged via this schema. This datatype describes a feature hierarchy for feature based modelling system. The feature hierarchy is represented via a single linked list of set of feature elements that reference the next feature in the hieratchy. The linked list hierachy must describe the features in 'replay' order (ie. first operation first in the hierachy). There is scope to describe 'tree-like' dependencies via additional 'dependentFeatures' reference attributes. The feature tree is represented within PLMXML as an 'Internal Representation' - the FeatureTreeType is based on InternalRepBase and the element FeatureTree is a substitution class for InternalRep. Attributes: firstFeature - (optional) the XML id of the first feature in the feature hierarchy. editable - (optional) TRUE if any features of the feature tree may be edited. Elements: Type - (1) element describing the type of feature tree. This is an application specific type. The receiving application is not meant to deduce or interpret the type but could use it to classify feature tree. Feature - (0 or many) the list of features thaat make up the feature tree. validate=skipName A base type for a usage relation between Structure, StructureRevision and StructureRevisionView elements. Attributes: instancedRef Reference to the 'used' element. This should be derived from StructureRevisionView, StructureRevision, StructureView, or Structure, or GDE. In the latter cases some other context must determine which view or revision is intended. partRef: This attribute is retained for compatibility reasons and should only be used for Product Structure, not general Structures. transformRef: optional Transform which positions the 'used' element in the coordinates of the using one. materialRef: reference to a Material element to use when displaying the 'used' element. propertyRefs: reference to properties representationRefs: an optional collection of Representations of the 'used' element. designRequired: true if the 'used' element must have at least one corresponding element in the Design Structure. Elements: Transform: see transformRef. (This should not be used in conjunction with transformRef). Representation: see representationRefs VariantCondition:An optional VariantCondition Reference Elements referenced by the StructureUsage. This enables the representation of such relationships as "connected to", and "implemented by". PropertyGroup a group of Properties of the StructureUsage EntityPropertyGroup: used to specify Properties of logical entities in the referenced StructureRevisionView, in the context of the StructureUsage. An AttributeContext element specifies the source for an overridden Occurrence attribute or property (e.g. quantity, Transform). An Occurrence attribute or property can be overridden in various ways, for example in the context of a higher-level Occurrence. The AttributeContext is not intended to describe the override mechanism - it simply indicates the context object which was responsible for the override. Attributes: attributeName: The name of the (xml) attribute being overridden, if appropriate. targetRef: The element which carries the attribute being overridden. contextRef: The context element, for example a higher-level Occurrence. changeRef: A reference to an element representing a Change which caused this attribute to be overridden. Occurrence. An Occurrence specifies a usage of a Structure, StructureRevision, or StructureRevisionView in an Assembly. The usage is defined by specifying a chain of Instances which lead from the Assembly down to the Structure, or by a chain of Instances and other Occurrences, which when joined together define an Instance chain. It is also possible for an Occurrence to reference a ProductView at the end of its Instance chain, rather than a Structure. The Assembly, which is the parent of the first Instance in the Instance chain, is called the 'top Structure' of the Occurrence. The Structure, which is instanced by the last Instance in the Instance chain, is called the 'bottom Structure' of the Occurrence. Note that the following inherited attributes on an Occurrence override the attributes of the same name on the last Instance of the Instance chain: materialRef instancedRef partRef representationRefs In addition, the 'transformRef' attribute overrides the transform obtained by accumulating the transforms in the Instance chain. Attributes: instanceRefs: chain of Instances which define the Occurrence. (May end in a GDEInstanceGroup). pathRefs: chain of Instances and Occurrences which, when joined together, define an Instance chain. Only one of instanceRefs and pathRefs should be present. geometryRefs: optional geometry associated with this Occurrence. occurrenceRefs: an Occurrence may have a number of 'child' Occurrences, which this attribute specifies. A child Occurrence must have an Instance chain which is the same as that of its parent, but with one more Instance added at the bottom end. An Occurrence is normally only rendered in a view if it has no child Occurrences. alternativeOfRef: It is possible for one ProductView to be defined by reference to another ProductView. In this case the first ProductView will contain some Occurrences which override Occurrences in the referenced ProductView. The 'alternativeOfRef' attribute is used to indicate the Occurrence which this Occurrence is overriding. If an Occurrence has an alternativeOfRef attribute, it should not also have an instanceRefs attribute, nor should it have an occurrenceRefs attribute. productViewRef: If an Occurrence has a productViewRef, then it is regarded as an Occurrence of that ProductView, not of its 'bottom Structure'. In this case, the 'top Structure' of the ProductView must be the same as the 'bottom Structure' of the Occurrence. visible: Flag to indicate the Occurrence is visible. If absent, visible is implied. An Occurrence which references another Occurrence via the alternativeOfRef attribute may override its visibility, i.e. make it visible if invisible or vice-versa. NB This is deprecated - use a Visibility Property instead. lastInstanceParentRef: This is the StructureRevisionView which is the parent of the last Instance in the chain. Although this is implied by the last Instance in the chain, it can be specified explicitly with this attribute, either for convenience, or in the case where instanceRefs is absent. sourceRef: A reference to the InstancePath to which this corresponds (which will have the same instance path as this Occurrence). linkedOccurrenceRef: In a Composition ProductView, this attribute references an Occurrence or ConfiguredOccurrenceGroup in a referenced ProductView. It indicates that this Occurrence should be treated as an Occurrence not of an entire ProductRevisionView, but only of the specified Occurrence(s). linkedGroupRef: A reference to a ConfiguredOccurrenceGroup. This corresponds to the group referenced by 'linkedOccurrenceRef', but contains Occurrences in the Composition ProductView. associatedAttachmentRefs: reference to any associated attachments. These are the direct attachments of this Occurrence - any sub-attachments will be referenced by those attachments. parentRef: This is an optional back-pointer reference to a parent Occurrence, which references this Occurrence through its 'occurrenceRefs' attribute. instanceNumber A number, or index. This is only relevant when the last Instance in the path is a GDEInstance. occurrenceId: ID for the Occurrence, unique in the context of the top-level Structure of the Occurrence. controlRefs: The OccurrenceControlRevision objects controlling this occurrence, if any symbolicRefs: the child SymbolicOccurrences Elements: Material: EntityMaterial: Allows the association of a Material with an entity; for example the Occurrence could specify the colour of a face of a body. The entity should be in a Representation specified by this Occurrence, or by the last Instance in the Instance chain, or by the 'bottom Structure' of the Occurrence. AssociatedAttachment AttributeContext: Used to specify the source of any overridden attributes or properties of this Occurrence. A base type for instancing relations between Structure, StructureRevision, StructureView and StructureRevisionView elements. (This is not an abstract type because the Instance element is retained for compatibility reasons). Attributes: quantity: Quantity of the element referenced. If absent, 1 is implied. If present, any contained or referenced Transform is ignored. unitRef: Units for the quantity attribute. If absent, 'each' is implied. An IDREF to a 'Unit' element. instanceType: A 'subtype' string for the instance. No specified semantics. sequenceNumber: Serves to identify the instance within its parent. If present, should be unique within the parent. instanceThreadRef: A reference to the InstanceThread which this Instance is included in, if any. instanceTypeRef: References a multiple language version of instanceType. If multiple language support is required, instanceTypeRef should be used in addition to instanceTypeRef. An Instance between Product, ProductRevision, or ProductRevisionView elements. Attributes: substituteForRef: A ProductInstance may be a 'substitute' for another, which means that it may be used instead, but only in the context of their common parent assembly. If this is a substitute for another ProductInstance, then this attribute references it. This is a base type for sub-types of Instance which need to reference an Occurrence. Attributes: occurrenceRef: the referenced Occurrence. No specific semantics at this level. An Instance of a GDE. Attributes: instanceNumber A number, or index, which identifies the GDEInstance within its parent. GDEInstanceGroup: derived from Managed. This global element is used to collect together a number of GDEInstance elements to simplify referencing. Attributes: propertyRefs Reference to Properties. Elements: GDEInstance Any number of GDEInstances. PropertyGroup A group of Properties applicable to all GDEInstances in the GDEInstanceGroup. An Instance of a Connection, ConnectionRevision, or ConnectionRevisionView. This element acts as a context for effectivities. An Effectivity can reference a ConfigurationContext element to indicate that the Effectivity is only applicable to that ConfigurationContext. Attributes: configId: Unique identifier. Effectivity Base class. contextRef: the Structure, StructureRevision, or ConfigurationContext in which this Effectivity applies. If absent, then the Effectivity is relevant for all Products and ProductRevisions which use the element to which the Effectivity is attached. Date Effectivity. Indicates that an element is effective between two specified dates. If the start is omitted, the effectivity is openEnded in that direction. If the end is omitted, the effectivity is openEnded, or stockOut, in that direction. Attributes: start: Start date and time. end: End date and time. endCondition: If the end dateTime is omitted, this attribute specifies whether the effectivity is stockOut or openEnded. OpenEnded means effective indefinitely after the start date; stockOut means only effective 'while stocks last'. Lot Effectivity. Indicates that an element is effective only for a certain 'lot' or batch. Attributes: lot: Lot identifier. Serial Number Effectivity. Indicates that an element is effective for a range of serial numbers. If the start is omitted, the effectivity is openEnded in that direction.

Attributes: start: Start serial number. end: End serial number. endCondition: If the end serial number is omitted, this attribute specifies whether the effectivity is stockOut or openEnded. OpenEnded means effective indefinitely after the start serialNumber; stockOut means only effective 'while stocks last'. Attributes: vRef: References a multiple language version of v. If multiple language support is required, vRef should be used in addition to v. Option. This element specifies the valid values for an Option, either as a set of allowed values (i.e. an enum), or as a range of values of a particular type. Attributes: scope: Option scope. type: Option type - enum, string, int, real or logical. Elements: Value: If the Option is of type enum, it should contain a sequence of Value sub-elements giving the allowed values.

If multiple language support is required, titleRef should be used in addition to title. This is a revision of a Drawing. Attributes: externalFileRefs: URI references to the Drawing files. These should be ExternalFile elements. drawnRefs: URI references to ProductRevisions or ProductRevisionViews drawn in this Drawing revision. This is a View (design, manufacturing, etc) of a Revision of a Drawing. This element connects a ProductRevision or ProductRevisionView to a 'template' ProductRevision/ProductRevisionView which represents a Product Family of which it is a member. For example a template ProductRevision might represent the 'Bolt' family and a member ProductRevision might be a 2cm Bolt. The member may be specified by a collection of parameter values in the 'Parameters' UserData sub-element. The exact way in which these parameters are interpreted will depend on the CAD system which defined the Template. Attributes: memberRef: URI reference to member ProductRevision/ProductRevisionView templateRef: URI reference to template ProductRevision/ProductRevisionView Elements: Parameters UserData element containing defining parameters for the member This element represents a dependency between one ProductRevision, ProductRevisionView or Occurrence, and another. The slave depends in some way on the master. The nature of the dependency may be specific to the CAD system which defined it, and is specified by the 'type' attribute, and the 'Parameters' UserData sub-element. Attributes: type: The type of dependency. slaveRef: URI reference to the dependent ProductRevision, ProductRevisionView or Occurrence. masterRef: URI reference to the master ProductRevision, ProductRevisionView or Occurrence. typeRef: References a multiple language version of message.

Attributes: name: (inherited from DescriptionBase) name, e.g. "mileage" value: the value unitRef: reference to a Unit element. If this omitted, the value is unitless. This represents a numerical range with a unit, e.g. "3.1-4.2 miles", or "at least 100 litres". At least one of the limit attributes must be present. Attributes: name: (inherited from DescriptionBase) name, e.g. "mileage" lowerLimit: the lower limit upperLimit: the upper limit unitRef: reference to a Unit element. If this omitted, the value is unitless. Represents a configured attachment to an Occurrence.

OccurrenceGroups can share InstancePaths or other OccurrenceGroups, but must not contain recursive loops. Attributes: instancePathRootRef: reference to the common InstancePathRoot. childRefs: reference to contained InstancePaths or OccurrenceGroups This element collects together Instances which correspond across different revisions of a structure. An Instance can only be in one InstanceThread, which it references by its instanceThreadRef attribute. This element represents the root of a tree of InstancePaths. Attributes: structureViewRef: This is the StructureView at the top of the InstancePaths in the tree. This element represents an unconfigured path of InstanceThreads, top to bottom. The path must be sequential in that the 'instanced' Structure of each InstanceThread must be the same as the 'parent' Structure of the next InstanceThread in the path. It is possible (although unusual) for an InstancePath to 'change views' as you go down the path. Attributes: instancePathRootRef: The InstancePathRoot which represents the top of the tree this InstancePath is in. instanceThreadRef: This is the last (bottom) InstanceThread in the instance path. (Unlike the Occurrence element, which has an "instanceRefs" attribute to specify the full path, this element only specifies the last InstanceThread, and relies on its 'ancestor' elements to define the path). childRefs: the 'children' of the InstancePath. This is a selection of other InstancePaths, each of which must have a path which is formed by adding one more InstanceThread on the end of the path. There must be no duplicates paths. absoluteOccurrenceRef: This is a back-pointer to a referencing AbsoluteOccurrence (There can be at most one AbsoluteOccurrence referencing a given InstancePath) An AbsoluteOccurrence provides a mechanism for collecting together a number of InstancePaths, which in some sense 'correspond' (for example the front left wheels in two different cars). There are no actual requirements on what these InstancePaths are. Attributes: occurrenceId: an id for the Occurrence instancePathRefs: the InstancePaths in the AbsoluteOccurrence This abstract element represents a View (e.g. 'design') of a Structure. It simply references the associated Structure and View elements. Attributes: masterRef: reference to the Structure viewRef: reference to the View propertyRefs: reference to Properties Elements: PropertyGroup This element represents a View of a Product, e.g. 'design' View.
