Delete component from assembly

Help to see what I am missing.
I want to find the first component in the assembly and delete it.
I can find the first component, but having trouble deleting.

Here is my run method

public void run() throws jxthrowable, IOException { Session session = pfcSession.GetCurrentSession(); Model model = session.GetActiveModel(); if (model == null) { return; } if (model.GetType() == ModelType.MDL_ASSEMBLY) { Assembly assembly = (Assembly) model; Features components = assembly.ListFeaturesByType(false, FeatureType.FEATTYPE_COMPONENT); if (components.getarraysize() > 0) { try { // --- Find the first component in the model tree ComponentFeat targetComponent = null; // Get all features in order. Features allFeatures = assembly.ListFeaturesByType(false, null); // Find the first component feature in the feature tree for (int i = 0; i < allFeatures.getarraysize(); i++) { Feature feat = allFeatures.get(i); if (feat instanceof ComponentFeat) { targetComponent = (ComponentFeat) feat; break; // Stop at the first component found } } ModelDescriptor desc = targetComponent.GetModelDescr(); FeatureOperations featOps = FeatureOperations.create(); featOps.append(targetComponent.CreateDeleteOp()); assembly.ExecuteFeatureOps(featOps, null); assembly.Regenerate(null); session.GetModelWindow(assembly).Repaint(); } catch (jxthrowable e) { System.out.println("Error during component deletion: " + e.getMessage()); } } else { System.out.println("No components to delete."); } } else { System.out.println("The active model is not an assembly."); } }
