COM Interface: IPCBComponent
This class provides access to the specific component instance in the PCB board design. All available properties and methods can be accessed. It comprises the properties that are specific to the component instance, and also provides access to the footprint and part interface.
Members
Functions
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| void ChangeFootprint(BSTR newFootprintName, BSTR newAlternateName) | Changes the component footprint to newFootprintName (newAlternateName). If the footprint has no alternate, then newAlternateName may be blank. |
| void ChangePart(BSTR newPartName) | Changes the component part to newPartName. |
| void Delete() | Deletes the component. |
