Customizing behavior modeling integration operations by using extensions

Teamcenter provides extension points for the following behavior modeling tool integration operations: Save, Save-as, Open, Insert.

Extension points are available for the following concurrent modeling operations: Import, Export, Add to branch, Update.

You can implement these extensions as java programs, tool-specific scripts, or batch files.

Use the following extension points to extend behavior modeling integration:

Extension name	Description
PRE_UI_ACTION	Performs the configured actions before the behavior modeling tool launches Teamcenter dialog boxes. This extension supports only Save and Save-as operations. You can implement this extension using Java only.
PRE_UI_INSERT	Performs the configured actions before the behavior modeling tool launches the Teamcenter insert dialog box. You can implement this extension using Java only.
PRE_CONDITION	Checks the specified conditions before performing the behavior modeling operations. If the PRE_CONDITION extension fails, the operation is not performed.
PRE_ACTION	Performs the specified actions before performing the behavior modeling operations.
POST_ACTION	Performs the specified actions after performing the behavior modeling operations.

The PRE_UI_ACTION and PRE_UI_INSERT extensions take the input as an XML string that is based on the BHMOperationsSchema.xsd file. The PRE_CONDITION, PRE_ACTION, and POST_ACTION extensions take the input as an XML string based on the BHMDesignSchema.xsd file.
