Hypermesh doesnt load a file im using in a tcl script
Altair EmployeeHello,
first of all im new to Hypermesh and all the scripting. I made a tcl script, which reads a file (like .txt .UFF) and creates nodes from coordinates mentioned in the file. Everything works perfect in the tclsh-environment, the file data gets imported and it looks like this:
% set fp [open 'test.UFF' r]
file5e9730
% set file_data [read $fp]
1 1 1 1 10 0 0
1 1 1 1 0 10 0
1 1 1 1 0 0 10
I skipped the rest of the code because I think its not necessary. If I execute the script in Hypermesh i get the following error:
couldn't open 'test.UFF': no such file or directory
If I dont read the data file and define the matrix shown above manually, everything is good. So why doesnt Hypermesh find my file? Its definitely in the folder where I start the Hypermesh session from. I hope my problem is clear and someone can help me.

Just making it clear, '\' is a special character in TCL.
Anything after '\' is not evaluated as commands.
So, for folders you can use / like suggested, or instead of using quotes ' ' for the string, use { }
Anything inside { } is not evaluated at all and is directly written.
