Open HDF file from python file???

Hi everybody,

for an Optimization loop I need to open hdf file from python file. What is the command please? I just tried the command

study = salome.myStudyManager.OpenStudy("/home/user/MyStudy.hdf") 

but it doesn't work.

Thank you all for the time and consideration.

Hi Fabio

I usually use such code to open a study and then use SMESH commands on it

salome.myStudy     = salome.myStudyManager.Open( file_name )
salome.myStudyId   = salome.myStudy._get_StudyId()
salome.myStudyName = salome.myStudy._get_Name()
meshCompSO         = salome.myStudy.FindComponent("SMESH")
b                  = salome.myStudy.NewBuilder()
b.LoadWith( meshCompSO, smesh.smesh )

Hi Fabio,

I don't know on Windows, but on Linux, I simply type:

salome Study1.hdf

in a console and Salome loads automatically the HDF file after opening.

So, maybe you could just use a "os.system" command to do it from your Python script:

import os

os.system( "salome " + fileName )

I hope it's what you were looking for.

Best regards,

William

PS: My "salome" command is an alias of:

source /opt/salome/salome_6.5.0/KERNEL_6.5.0/salome.sh

I installed my Salome version into my /opt/salome/ folder, but on your computer (or server), it can be different, of course

Thanks for the replies. It finally works. Another question: I create a compound mesh (call compound_mesh) and I have to extrude it (from python file) and export it (in UNV format, from python file too). How can I do it?

Thank you

    ## Generates new elements by extrusion of the elements which belong to the object
    #  @param theObject the object which elements should be processed.
    #                   It can be a mesh, a sub mesh or a group.

    #  @param NbOfSteps the number of steps
    #  @param MakeGroups forces the generation of new groups from existing ones
    #  @param  IsNodes is True if elements which belong to the object are nodes

    ## Exports the mesh in a file in UNV format

    #  @param meshPart a part of mesh (group, sub-mesh) to export instead of the mesh
