PostProcessingMachineElement Object 
Derived from: MachineElement Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::cam" and the header file is <Cam/Machine/PostProcessingMachineElement.h>
This functionality is provided as a preview
of intended future API capabilities. You are encouraged to use it and report any problems or suggestions using the
Fusion API and Scripts forum.
Because this is a preview of future functionality, there is the possibility that it will change, which will possibly
break any existing programs that use this functionality. Because of that, you should never deliver any programs that use
any preview capabilities. For a distributed program, you should wait until it has moved from preview to released state.
