getActiveChoice

Get active choice on variant component

Syntax

choice = getActiveChoice(variantComponent)

Description

choice = getActiveChoice(variantComponent) finds which choice is active for the variant component.

Examples

Get Active Variant Choice

Create a model, get the root architecture, create one variant component, add two choices for the variant component, set the active choice, and get the active choice.

model = systemcomposer.createModel("archModel");
systemcomposer.openModel("archModel");
arch = get(model,"Architecture");
variant = addVariantComponent(arch,"Component1");
compList = addChoice(variant,["Choice1","Choice2"]);
setActiveChoice(variant,compList(2));
comp = getActiveChoice(variant)

comp = 
  Component with properties:

     IsAdapterComponent: 0
           Architecture: [1×1 systemcomposer.arch.Architecture]
                   Name: 'Choice2'
                 Parent: [1×1 systemcomposer.arch.Architecture]

             Parameters: [0×0 systemcomposer.arch.Parameter]
               Position: [15 15 65 76]
                  Model: [1×1 systemcomposer.arch.Model]
