COMBINE# combines parameter values from a recursive Telitab set or group of objects in a single Telitab set

Syntax

  1. COMBINE#(Telitab$, Attribute$, ObjectName$, Par[Lab$]_1, Par[Lab$]_2, ... , Par[Lab$]_n)
  2. COMBINE#(Object, Attribute$, ObjectName$, Par[Lab$]_1, Par[Lab$]_2, ... , Par[Lab$]_n)

Arguments

  • The first argument is either an Object or String expression containing Telitab data.
  • Attribute$ is an optional name of an attribute (without preceding "@") that has to be present in the dataslot of the objects in which data has to be gathered.
  • ObjectName$ is an optional name of the Object instances in which data has to be gathered.
  • Par[Lab$]_1, Par[Lab$]_2, ... , Par[Lab$]_n are the labels of parameters to be included in the Telitab result.

Remarks

  1. The COMBINE# function returns a Telitab with values from parameters that are included as label arguments. This makes it possible to collect parameters from all objects within a certain calculation.
  2. This function can, for example, be used to create overviews or summaries of calculations.

Examples


The function

EMotors# = COMBINE#(@Heatbalance, "NullString", "EMotor", "ID$", "PowerReq", "Power", "Etha", "Connection$")

returns a Telitab String containing the list of electric motors (EMotor objects) in the object tree Heatbalance, so including the values of the parameters "ID$", "PowerReq", "Power", "Etha" and "Connection$".

If the electric motors in the system are contained in objects with different names, indicating types of motors, e.g. EMOTORDC and EMOTORAC, these objects can be provided with an @EMOTOR attribute in its data slot that would make the expression:

EMotors# = COMBINE#(@Heatbalance, "EMOTOR", "NullString", "ID$", "PowerReq", "Power", "Etha", "Connection$")

These attributes are user defined and no standard Quaestor attributes. The result could for example be:

The function is not started before Heatbalance$ is created, so this can be used to make sure that the COMBINE# function is started at the end of de process, when all parameters to be combined are known by the system.
