Project Interfaces

IProject Interface

Overview
The IProject interface deals with an open project in Altium Designer. There are project and document variants, that is actually a project or document can be specified to have project or document variants (actual project / document variants do not exist) and on these document variants have component variants.

To have access to the data of a project, you need to do a compile first. Projects deal with logical and physical documents. Logical documents are the connected documents which are part of a design which include a PCB document associated with this design. Physical documents are source documents expanded by the Altium Designer compiler as in a flattened design project.

Thus, a project contains source documents and implementation documents. To have access to the most current data of a project, you need to compile the project first. The compiler maps (or expands) all the logical source documents into physical documents.

Normally there is a one logical document to a one physical document for a simple flat design project, but for hierarchical design projects (for example multi channel projects), the documents that have sheet symbols with a Repeat statement, then logical documents are expanded into multiple physical documents.

There are Output jobs consisting of available output generators installed in Altium Designer.

The IProject interface hierarchy is as follows;
