Getting the Value of Mask Parameters
Today I want to share a trick I recently found out.
The Problem: Getting the Value of Nested Mask Parameters
I want to write a script that will look in a model for blocks of a particular type, a subsystem I made, and analyze the values passed to it as dialog parameters. I do not want this script to be an initialization callback, I just want the users to be able to run it whenever they want, like a Model Advisor check.
When my block is at the top of a model, it is very easy. Let's say I have variables "a" and "b" defined in the base workspace with respective values of 2 and 3. If the user specifies "a+b" as value of parameter "c" in my block, I can get the final value of "c" using the code below:
But what if the user puts my block inside another subsystem:
In this case, "a" and "b" are not in the base workspace anymore, they are in the mask workspace of subsystem SS_Level1.
The Solution
If you look carefully at the bottom of the reference page for Mask Parameters, you will find one named maskWSVariables
This parameter will return an array of structures with fields Name and Value for each parameter of your mask. Once I have it, I like using a containers.Map object to access the parameter values easily. For example:Now it's your turn
Let us know what you think of this technique, or if you have preferred tricks to access values and properties in a model by leaving a comment here.
