Can a link file be associated with more than 1 model?

Greetings,

I'm pretty sure that a Requirements Toolbox external link file (.slmx) can only hold links for a single model but would like confirmation. When I a link file populated w/links associated with modelA into modelB, the links for modelA are not visible in the requirements editor. Using the API, they don't appear in the linkset either.

Thanks,

-Chris

Hey Chris,

Yes, you are correct. A Requirements Toolbox external link file (.slmx) can only hold links for a single model. When you import a link file populated with links associated with modelA into modelB, the links for modelA will not be visible in the requirements editor or the linkset using the API.

If you want to have links visible in both modelA and modelB, you will need to create separate link files for each model and import them accordingly.
