Roberto's statement could be true but I still believe that it was still built off a programming platform and the requirement for C++ is to much and to similar.

Changing colors! my PCM changes colors? what is that he saying? Older Versions?
And for Training be careful where you get training some teachers are great and other are not so great. I would suggest going to South Carolina I can't remember the teachers name but he was great. He was the manager of the training center.

I would suggest taking C++ training course at your local University then go to Zeiss Training for PCM. So you are only learning the little differences and it won't be so much new information.
There is a lot to understand and only about half get anything from the training according to the Zeiss trainer. The more you know about C++ the easier it will be for you.

Not sure how I attacked you this time, but ones again you prove my point. I feel sorry for that poor Oberg. And some day, hopefully you will realize what a donkey you'll look like.

I cant agree with you regarding your statement of c++. Because it wrong. PCM is created with Smalltalk, Its contained within the Calypso image and is interpreted by visualworks. Thats not an opinion or anything that can be up for argue. Thats how it is.

There could also be some great online C++ training courses. If at the least watch a lot of youtube videos on programming C++. You can also learn a lot from Paul McWhorter he goes through how to program Arduino on youtube. I did my C++ course at Utah State Unversity when I was getting my Aerospace Mechanical Engineering degree.

A massive amount of 20MB for a redistributable that allows you to use windows .dll's.

You have a strong foundation for your argument, shame if someone took a closer look at it. 😃


And PCM have more similarities with python then c++. It would not hurt to know c++ or py when attending a pcm class. But if you wish to learn pcm, then take a pcm class, not a c++ class.

Don't go spend $4000 (Flight, Hotel, Hours and Class costs)on a PCM class unless you understand basic programming. You will be overwhelmed with everything and get almost nothing for it. My suggest to take a University Class it is a slower class more time to ask questions. The 3 day class for PCM is 8 hours for 3 days it is a lot to take in. I still stand by taking a C++ programming you will find that it is so close that there is very little you will need to learn at the PCM training.

But do what every you want this is just my suggestion. You can spend your company's money any way you think is best. I have just found that you can learn a lot online and from you local university. Most work places pay for the classes at a university and it is a tax deduction for them.
Also easier in most cases to get a approve to take class from a university.

I've got a question on this subject, but I can't find the answer anywhere on this post.

So, my code is as follows;
repeat
SelectPartNo = inquireList("Please select the part required for measurement.","NN31459G01","NN31535G01","NN31535G02","NN31600G01")
ConfirmPartNo = confirm("Part Number is " + [color=#00BF40]SelectPartNo"[/color] +[color=#FF40FF]"?"[/color])
[color=#BF00FF]until[/color] [color=#00BF40]ConfirmPartNo[/color] == [color=#FF8000]true[/color]


My question is, how can I avoid a none selection. I need to make sure that the operator selects a part number from the list. Any help would be much appreciated. 🙂

	if SelectPartNo <> ""
		ConfirmPartNo = confirm("Part Number is " + SelectPartNo+" ?")
	else
		ConfirmPartNo=false
	endif
until ConfirmPartNo == true

Cheers, it essentially works. However it doesn't allow the user to retry and select from the list and instead causes an error if nothing is selected and stops the program. What would be the work around for this?

Haha, my bad, been doing other languages so much I really don't know what Im doing some times... 🙂
repeat
	SelectPartNo = inquireList("Please select the part required for measurement.","NN31459G01","NN31535G01","NN31535G02","NN31600G01")
	if isParameterDefined("SelectPartNo") == true
		if SelectPartNo <> ""
		ConfirmPartNo = confirm("Part Number is " + SelectPartNo+" ?")
		else
			ConfirmPartNo=false
		endif
	else
		ConfirmPartNo == false
	endif
until ConfirmPartNo
