      WTArrayList assignDependentExpressions(Map<Expressionable,wt.option.ExpressionData> expressionableToExprDataMap, OptionSet optionset) throws WTException
      API to assign multiple dependent Part, Part Usage, or Part Occurrence expressions. This API associates basic or advanced expression to the given Part, Part Usage, or Part Occurrence provided in the map as an argument. All the expression assignments must be successful or the entire set will roll back

      Supported API: true
      Parameters:
      Map - invalid input: '<'Expressionable,ExpressionData> Map of Part, Part Usage, or Part Occurrence as key invalid input: '&' ExpressionData as value.(BasicExpressionData or ComplexExpressionData)
