Dieses Beispiel zeigt, wie man PCB-Investigator Plug-ins dazu nutzen kann, um Daten aus GenCAD 1.4, IDF oder IPC-2581 Dateien zu laden. Sie benötigen dazu die Referenzen auf alle verwendeten Plug-ins sowie eine Referenz auf den PCB-Investigator.

Benutzen Sie: Add Reference for “PCBI_GenCad”, “PCBI_IPC2581” und “PCBI IDF_Import”, Sie finden diese dlls in dem Plug-in Unterverzeichnis Ihrer PCB-Investigator-Installation (auch in der Demo-Version).

Hier finden Sie den Beispielcode in C# und VB:
