Using Syndeia with Creo.

For using Syndeia to access Creo models in local file system or Windchill, follow the steps below.

1. Create a folder named libCreo

2. Copy the pfcasync.jar from your Creo installation to the libCreo folder. This jar is located in your Creo installation as follows: C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 3.0\M020\Common Files\text\java\pfcasync.jar 
   You will use the libCreo folder when installing the Syndeia plugin for Rhapsody.

3. Set environment variable PRO_COMM_MSG_EXE with value as the location of pro_comm_msg.exe in your Creo installation (see Figure 6 below),
   e.g. PRO_COMM_MSG_EXE = C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 3.0\M020\Common Files\x86e_win64\obj\pro_comm_msg.exe

4. Set environment variable PRO_DIRECTORY with value as the location of Parametric folder in your Creo installation, e.g.
   PRO_DIRECTORY = C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 3.0\M020\Parametric
   
   
   
   
   

5. Add the location of Creo DLLs to the Path environment variable. These DLLs are located in the lib folder of your Creo installation. For example, add the following C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 3.0\M020\Common Files\x86e_win64\lib to the Path environment variable.

6. After you install Syndeia, set the Creo executable path in Syndeia settings to the parametric.exe file in your Creo installation. If your organization uses a different executable to run Creo, specify the exact location of the same. Learn more about this setting in the section Creo settings (under Settings).

7. Open the Syndeia.hep file located in <Syndeia_Installation>\profiles\Syndeia folder, e.g C:\Users\<YourAccount>\IBM\Rational\Rhapsody\8.1.3x64\Share\Profiles\Syndeia\profiles\Syndeia. Specify the location of Creo's x86e_win64\lib folder in the value of JavaLibPath1 variable, as highlighted below. Save and close the Syndeia.hep file.
