Features: Pro/TOOLKIT is a customization development toolkit for the Pro/Engineer system, providing a large number of C language library functions. External applications developed using Pro/TOOLKIT can safely and effectively access Pro/Engineer's database and applications, adding the required functionality to the Pro/Engineer system. However, compared to Pro/Engineer, mastering Pro/TOOLKIT programming is somewhat more challenging. The main reasons are as follows: First, there is relatively limited documentation available; second, the examples provided in the Pro/TOOLKIT help files are C program codes targeting UNIX, which are not very readable; third, Pro/TOOLKIT applications also involve knowledge beyond program development; fourth, the requirements for users are relatively high, requiring a certain level of understanding of C language and Windows programming.
