Card 9 - EXPPLUGIN User-written Plugin File

KODE

KODE is the code EXPPLUGIN (or 105)

N1

N1 provides the full absolute path of a user-written plugin file to be loaded for expression evaluations. Each such file contains definitions and enables the use of user-written registered functions that can be referenced in solver expressions, in the current run.

If the thermal solver is not able to load the plugin file indicated in INPF, it extracts the plugin name by removing the file name’s extension. Depending on the platform (.dll for Windows and .so for Linux) it adds the appropriate extension and searches for the plugin file in the folder specified by the UGII_CAE_PLUGIN_DIR environment variable.

Code example

EXPPLUGIN "d:/dir1/subdir1/userplugin1.dll"

Notes

When multiple plugin files are to be loaded, multiple EXPPLUGIN cards, one per file, should be used.
