I am testing bringing over a SysML V2 text syntax file from CATIA Magic.
It is throwing errors for all the views that have the form:
“DS_Views::SymbolicViews::gv”
I guess that “DS_” means “Dassault” and that it should be possible to replace “DS_Views” with another string that points to the SysIDE standard libraries…(?) I asked Claude Code to find the replacement string, but it went down a rabbit hole…
??
Thanks!

Could you give more information on what sort of error?
Syside considers DS_Views::SymbolicViews::gv a name like any other. It is referencing a package called DS_Views which might not be available in the paths Syside searches. In this case you would have to either provide that package (eg copy it into the same directory that your model file is in) or replace it (as you propose).
Without knowing more about what that view looks like or how it behaves, it’s not possible to figure out if we have a corresponding one, or how one would build it.
Can you provide a minimal reproducing example? A model that gives the error, and a screenshot of the view/diagram you expect?

Adam,
Sure! The problem reproduces with the simplest example from the “Quick Start” sections for our “Simple SysML V2 for Beginners: Using…” book series. So far, we have quick starts available for CATIA Magic, Ansys SAM, and SysON.
The View is SysML V2’s “General View” and this is what the view should ideally look like (SVG from CATIA Magic):
Here are the three SysML V2 exports from the three tools.
Here is the error shown in VS Code with SysIDE Modeler.
Notice on the left that since all three versions are in the same folder, SysIDE has checked all three and objected to only the CATIA version. Ansys SAM did not provide any view information, but SysON did and apparently SysIDE likes the view as coded by SysON:
“view ‘Doorbell System Structure Overview’ : StandardViewDefinitions::GeneralView”
but does not like the view as coded by CATIA Magic:
"view ‘Doorbell System Structure Overview’ : DS_Views::SymbolicViews::gv:
Which I guess would answer my question: Just use a global search and replace to change the CATIA Magic notation to the SysON Notation?
(By the way, the Tom Sawyer render looks better after right-clicking and executing “Load all children as nested”)
(I would be happy to include the three SysML V2 files, but this tool told me "New users are only allowed to put 2 links in a post)
Thanks!
