PostTechInitAttributes

The callback

PostTechInitAttributes

(

CENPyOlpTech_AttribInitOperator

) is called just after the kernel initializes the technology attributes.

It can be used to:

  • initialize attributes

  • get attribute values

  • set attribute values

  • access OlpController

  • output to the log

The callback is defined in the

%TechnologyName%.py

file that is located in the scripts folder of the

plugin

.

# Create attributes
attribCreator = techAttribInitOperator.GetAttribCreator()   # get object of CENPyOlpAttribCreator class
   attribCreator.AddInteger('MyIntAttribute', 0, -100, 0, USER_ATTRIBUTE | PROCESS_ATTRIBUTE | GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE, 'MyIntAttribute')
   attribCreator.AddDouble('MyDoubleAttribute', 55.5, 0, 100, 0.5, USER_ATTRIBUTE | PROCESS_ATTRIBUTE | GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE, ATTRIB_STANDARD, 'MyDoubleAttribute')
   attribCreator.AddString('MyStringAttribute', 'Hello World', USER_ATTRIBUTE | PROCESS_ATTRIBUTE | GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE, 'MyStringAttribute')
   attribCreator.AddBool('MyBoolAttribute', True, USER_ATTRIBUTE | PROCESS_ATTRIBUTE | GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE, 'MyBoolAttribute')
   myLiterals = ["earth", "revolves", "around"]   # list of three literals
   myLiterals.insert(0,"The")                     # insert a new literal at first list position
   myLiterals.append("sun")                       # append a new literal at last list position
   attribCreator.AddEnum('MyEnumAttribute', myLiterals, 'earth', USER_ATTRIBUTE | PROCESS_ATTRIBUTE | GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE, 'MyEnumAttribute')
# Get values from attributes
   attribGetter = techAttribInitOperator.GetAttribGetter()
   valOfMyIntAttrib = attribGetter.GetInteger('MyIntAttribute')
   valOfMyDoubleAttrib = attribGetter.GetDouble('MyDoubleAttribute')
   valOfMyStrAttrib = attribGetter.GetString('MyStringAttribute')
   valOfMyBoolAttrib = attribGetter.GetBool('MyBoolAttribute')
   indexOfMyEnumAttrib = attribGetter.GetEnumIndex('MyEnumAttribute')
# Set values to the attributes
   attribSetter = techAttribInitOperator.GetAttribSetter()
   attribSetter.SetInteger('MyIntAttribute', 15)
   attribSetter.SetDouble('MyDoubleAttribute', 15.8)
   attribSetter.SetString('MyStringAttribute', 'This is new string')
   attribSetter.SetBool('MyBoolAttribute', False)
   attribSetter.SetEnumIndex('MyEnumAttribute', 4)
 
# Output attribute value to the log
   logOperator = techAttribInitOperator.GetLoggerOperator()
   logOperator.LogDebug('indexOfMyEnumAttrib = ' + str(indexOfMyEnumAttrib))
# Create system attributes
   sysAttribCreator = attribCreator.GetSystemAttribCreator()
   min_radius = sysAttribCreator.AddMinRadius(0.01, USER_ATTRIBUTE | PROCESS_ATTRIBUTE | GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE | OPERATION_ATTRIBUTE)
   max_radius = sysAttribCreator.AddMaxRadius(9.9, USER_ATTRIBUTE | PROCESS_ATTRIBUTE | GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE | OPERATION_ATTRIBUTE)

As a result, new attributes appear on the user interface:
