Retrieve is the transformation of SmartPlant objects into Smart 3D design basis objects. This transformation is achieved by means of the Design Basis and the Design Basis map. The design basis (SCEF) is a Smart 3D Catalog package that is created by converting all the document types listed for retrieve into the package format supported by the Smart 3D Package Manager. For example, the Design Basis package contains a class called PIDProcessEquipment, which supports the same interfaces and properties as the SmartPlant PIDProcessEquipment. Normal Smart 3D objects interact with Design Basis objects by means of the SP3DCorrelationToDesignBasis relation. Although the Design Basis map contains mapping relations between classes and properties, they are all one-to-one, so the ClassDef PIDProcessEquipment is in a ClassToMapClass relation with MapClassDef PIDProcessEquipment. The Design Basis map also contains information on how the Design Basis instances are stored in the model database. Although the Design Basis map can be read and processed by the Schema Editor, it is a generated map and any changes made to it should be made by running the GenerateDesignBasis command in the Smart 3D Project Management task. Because it does contain information about how Design Basis data is stored in the model database, it cannot be deleted and re-created. If the Design Basis map is deleted, all Design Basis model data could be lost.

Here is a more detailed description.

  1. For each document to be retrieved, select the Design Basis adapter.

  2. Start the Schema Component Loader to process the document.

  3. For each object or relation received from the Loader, do add, delete, or update.

  4. Callbacks are available for each of these cases.
