Supported Versions of Software

Before you can use the ANSYS Workbench component, you must do the following:

  • You must have a supported version of ANSYS Workbench installed on your system
  • You must have an environment variable for the ANSYS Workbench executable, with

    Name - ANSYS_WB_EXE_PATH

    Value - Full path of the ANSYS Workbench executable. For example, D:\ANSYS Inc\v170\Framework\bin\Win64\RunWB2.exe.

  • When using the component for the first time, execute install.bat, which is in the <Isight_install_directory>\win_b64\reffiles\SMAFIPcomponent\AnsysWorkbench directory. The install.bat file sets up the .zwp file type association with the ANSYS Workbench software. It helps to launch ANSYS Workbench Project directly from the history tab of the Runtime Gateway (using the file parameter for *.zwp).
