Syntax

value = getEvaluatedPropertyValue(element,property)

Description

value = getEvaluatedPropertyValue(element,property) gets the evaluated value of a property specified on the architectural element.

Create a profile with a stereotype and properties, open the Profile Editor, then apply the profile to the model.

profile = systemcomposer.profile.Profile.createProfile("LatencyProfile");
latencybase = profile.addStereotype("LatencyBase");
latencybase.addProperty("latency",Type="double");
latencybase.addProperty("dataRate",Type="double",DefaultValue="10");
systemcomposer.profile.editor(profile)
model.applyProfile("LatencyProfile");

Create a model with a component called Component.

model = systemcomposer.createModel("archModel");
systemcomposer.openModel("archModel");
arch = get(model,"Architecture");
comp = addComponent(arch,"Component");

Apply the profile to the model and apply the stereotype to the component.

model.applyProfile("LatencyProfile");
comp.applyStereotype("LatencyProfile.electricalComponent");

Get the property value

value = getEvaluatedPropertyValue(comp,"LatencyProfile.electricalComponent.latency")
value =

Input Arguments

collapse all

Architectural element, specified as one these objects:

Property name, specified as a character vector or string in the form "<profile>.<stereotype>.<property>".

Data Types: char | string

Output Arguments

collapse all

Property value, returned as a data type that depends on how the property is defined in the profile.

architecture

A System Composer™ architecture represents a system of components and how they interface with each other structurally and behaviorally.

Different types of architectures describe different aspects of systems. You can use views to visualize a subset of components in an architecture. You can define parameters on the architecture level using the Parameter Editor.
root

A root is at the top of an architecture hierarchy. A root architecture has a boundary defined by its architecture ports that surround the system of interest.

The root architecture has a system boundary surrounding your architecture model. You can add architecture ports that define interfaces across the boundary.

model

A System Composer model is the file that contains architectural information, such as components, ports, connectors, interfaces, and behaviors.

Perform operations on a model:

  • Extract root-level architecture.

  • Apply profiles.

  • Link interface data dictionaries.

  • Generate instances from model architecture.

A System Composer model is stored as an SLX file.

component

A component is a replaceable part of a system that fulfills a clear function in the context of an architecture. A component defines an architectural element, such as a function, another system, hardware, software, or other conceptual entity. A component can also be a subsystem or subfunction.

Represented as a block, a component is a part of an architecture model that can be separated into reusable artifacts. Transfer information between components with:

port

A port is a node on a component or architecture that represents a point of interaction with its environment. A port permits the flow of information to and from other components or systems.

  • Component ports are interaction points on the component to other components.

  • Architecture ports are ports on the boundary of the system, whether the boundary is within a component or the overall architecture model. The root architecture has a boundary defined by its ports.

Compose Architectures Visually

connector

Connectors are lines that provide connections between ports. Connectors describe how information flows between components or architectures.

A connector allows two components to interact without defining the nature of the interaction. Set an interface on a port to define how the components interact.

stereotype

Stereotypes provide a mechanism to extend the core language elements and add domain-specific metadata.

Apply stereotypes to core element types. An element can have multiple stereotypes. Stereotypes allow you to style different elements. Stereotypes provide elements with a common set of properties, such as mass, cost, and power.
property

A property is a field in a stereotype. You can specify property values for each element to which the stereotype is applied.

Use properties to store quantitative characteristics, such as weight or speed, that are associated with a model element. Properties can also be descriptive or represent a status. You can view and edit the properties of each element in the architecture model using the Property Inspector. For more information, see Use Property Inspector in System Composer.
profile

A profile is a package of stereotypes.

You can use profiles to create a domain of specialized element types. Author profiles and apply profiles to a model using the Profile Editor. You can store stereotypes for a project in one or several profiles. When you save profiles, they are stored in XML files.
