When a PCOMP or a PCOMPG property card is translated into a ClaLam object by a call to “getClaDb” method, the value of LAM parameter is not taken into account. This means that the values of this parameter set to “MEM”, “BEND”, “SMEAR” or “SMCORE” is without effect. There is one exception to this rule: the value “SYM” is taken into account in PCOMP property cards. (But not in PCOMPG cards for which this parameter value is illegal.)
