Description

The GenerateLink component automatically creates a link between two components. It can create "classic" links, conversion links or Ion links.


Implementation

  • Add a GenerateLink in the station
  • Enter the sourceOrd, sourceSlot, targetOrd and targetSIot properties needed to build the link

 

Properties

  • Status: Describes the state of the component: {ok} if no problem encountered or {fault} if the link could not be created.
  • FaultCause: Indicates the reason for the failure to create the link.
  • SelfDestruction: The GenerateLink component self-destructs after creating the link (if the link could be created).
  • SourceOrd: the ord of the component source. It can be defined as a classical ord or a relative ord. BFormat can also be used, which will be evaluated against the GenerateLink object.
  • SourceSlot: the name of the linked slot in the component source.
  • TargetOrd: the ord of the target component. It can be defined as a classical ord or a relative ord. You can also use BFormat which will be evaluated against the GenerateLink object.
  • TargetSIot: the name of the slot linked in the target component.

 

Actions

  • Initialize: forces creation of the link
