Online Documentation Web.Link APIWizard
Web.Link provides an online browser called the Web.Link APIWizard that displays detailed documentation. This browser displays information from the Web.Link User’s Guide API specifications derived from Web.Link header file data.
The Web.Link APIWizard contains the following items:

•  Descriptions of Web.Link methods.
•  Declarations of data types used by Web.Link methods.
•  The Web.Link User’s Guide that you can browse by topic or class.
•  Code examples for Web.Link methods (taken from the sample applications provided as part of the Web.Link installation)
Read the Release Notes and README file for the most up-to-date information on documentation changes.

•  From Creo 4.0 F000, the applet based APIWizard is no longer supported. Use the non-applet based APIWizard instead.
