Description:
Hi everyone, especially fellow EDEM users or developers who might have insights— I’ve run into a couple of questions while working with EDEM’s Factory API and wanted to reach out for help.
First off, I’m trying to confirm the latest version of EDEM’s Factory API. Right now, when I check my local EDEM software directory, the only related file I can find is IPluginParticleFactoryV2_2_0.h. But when I visited EDEM’s official website, I noticed a newer file named IPluginParticleFactoryV3_3_0.h. This discrepancy has me a bit confused—so does anyone know which one is actually the most up-to-date version? Or if there’s a reason the local directory doesn’t match the official site files?
My second question is about functionality. If I do get the latest API version, I’m wondering if it can support a specific workflow I need: specifying a single particle template first, then continuously overwriting it with different .stl files—the end goal being to import an unlimited number of unique .stl particle models. I haven’t found clear documentation on this yet, so if anyone has tried something similar or knows the API’s capabilities here, that would be incredibly helpful.
Thanks in advance for any advice, links to docs, or personal experiences you can share!
