Inventor ETO Server Web Samples ------------------------------- Version: Inventor ETO 2013, 6.1 Sample Revision, 6.1.0 $Date: 2012/12/07 $ Description The samples included here can be seen at http://etosamples.autodesk.com/ It includes the Spiral Staircase web sample. Read this document and follow the instructions to build and run the samples. Prerequisites * Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 SP1 (Must be installed before Autodesk ETO Series 2013. See Autodesk ETO Series 2013 README file for details) * Autodesk Inventor ETO Series 2013 * Autodesk Inventor ETO Server 2013 * ASP.Net MVC 3 (This must be installed in addition to Visual Studio.) ----- Components .. -- Root directory of the samples ( {path} ) | | +---IntentServices | | | +---StaircaseWebSample -- Contains the code for the Web application. | | StaircaseWebSample.sln -- Web Samples solution file. | | Web.config -- Web configuration file | | *.* -- Project source files | | | \---IntentServicesWeb -- Shared DLL project with code for interacting with ETO Server. | *.* -- Project source files | \---ETO Samples - Inventor -- ETO Samples including Spiral Staircase | ETO Samples.ipj -- Custom Inventor project file configured to use the support files. | +---Design Files -- Intent Design Scripts and icons | \---{Other Support Folders} Set-Up 1. Copy the ETO Samples files (ETO Samples - Inventor) to the machine running ETO Server. 2. Add the Spiral Staircase application to ETO Server using the Services Configurator. (See documentation on Autodesk WikiHelp http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/Inventor_ETO/) Spiral Staircase Configuration Application Name: Staircase Host Type: InventorServer Design: spiralStaircase Project: {path}\ETO Samples - Inventor\ETO Samples.ipj 3. Configure the client endpoints in the web.config file to use the ETO Server you have configured. Config File: {path}\IntentServices\StaircaseWebSample\Web.config Element XPath: /configuration/system.serviceModel/client/endpoint The default values are "net.pipe://localhost/Autodesk/Intent/Services" and "net.pipe://localhost/Autodesk/Intent/Services/RemoteUI" but they will need to be changed if, for example, ETO Server is running on a different machine from your web application or you modified the server's endpoint configuration for any other reason. 4. Build the web samples solution Solution File: {path}\IntentServices\StaircaseWebSample\StaircaseWebSample.sln If there are compiler errors, make sure the references resolved properly. If they did not, re-add them from the ETO Series/Server {install}\bin directories. 5. Run/Debug the StaircaseWebSample project
