opcCreateTransientSet

opcCreateTransientSet( 
d_cellview
t_name
)
=> o_set / nil

Description

Creates an OPC set that is deleted when the cellview is removed from memory. Such sets can be created even when the cellview is read-only.

Arguments

d_cellview	Name of the cellview from where the members of the set should be selected.
t_name	Name of the OPC set.

Value Returned

o_set	The newly created OPC set.
nil	Failed to create the set.

Examples

Suppose a set called mySetTransient is required to store objects but only as long as the cellview is opened. To achieve this, you can use the following command:

cv = geGetEditCellView()

set = opcCreateTransientSet(cv “mySetTransient”)

if(set then

   info(“Successfully created set %s.\n” set~>name)

else

   info(“Failed to create set.\n”)

)
