SEEC: How do you override deep copy rules for PDF files.
Solution
We consider this to be correct behavior / working as designed.
1) SEEC does not support the use of Teamcenter for SaveAs and Revision operations for Solid Edge CAD files. This can only be done using SEEC based tools, SEEC or SESE.
2) We control deep copy rules to protect the integrity of the CAD data. Teamcenter by default, only creates links to the existing Datasets, whereas we must have new datasets for the newly created files in the Item or ItemRevision.
3) Since we only support PDF datasets that we create with SEEC in our Item Revisions, we again do not allow links to the source Datasets, nor do we copy forward the existing Datasets as the information within the source PDF does NOT represent the new draft file in the new ItemRevision. The source is the out of date historic information of the old ItemRevision that was from the Save As operation.
