CAMTemplate Object
Derived from: Base ObjectDefined in namespace "adsk::cam" and the header file is <Cam/CAMTemplate/CAMTemplate.h>
Description
Object that represents a template for a set of operations. These can be created from operations, optionally stored to files or in a library. The template can be used to re-create those operations in another document.Methods
| Name | Description |
| classType | Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType(). |
| createEmpty |  Create an empty CAMTemplate |
| createFromFile | Create a CAMTemplate from a file on disk, i.e. Import the template file. Invalid files will produce errors |
| createFromOperations | Create a CAMTemplate from a list of Operations |
| createFromXML | Creates a CAMTemplate from an XML string. Invalid template XML will produce errors |
| createHoleTemplateFromOperations | Create a hole CAMTemplate from a list of hole operations. Hole templates may be used in Hole Recognition |
| getHoleSignatureXML | Convert hole signature to XML. This will be empty if this is not a hole template, or if there is no signature. |
| save | Save the CAMTemplate to a file |
| setHoleSignatureXML | Provide an XML snippet to specify a hole signature. This will have no effect if this is not a hole template. This will fail if the provided snippet is not valid. |
Properties
| Name | Description |
| description | Gets and sets the description of the template. |
| isHoleTemplate | Whether or not this is a hole template |
| isValid | Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference. |
| name | Gets and sets the name of the template. |
| objectType | This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object. It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType(): |
| operations | Expose operations. |
