createCategory

Open the Times Table App project. Use currentProject to create a project object from the currently loaded project.

openExample("matlab/TimesTableProjectExample")
proj = currentProject;

Create a new category of labels, called Engineers, to indicate which engineer owns a file. These labels have the char data type for attaching character vector data.

createCategory(proj,"Engineers","char");

Use the findCategory function to get the new category.

engineersCategory = findCategory(proj,"Engineers");

Create labels in the new category.

createLabel(engineersCategory,"Tom");
createLabel(engineersCategory,"Harry");

Attach one of the new labels to a file in the project.

myfile = findFile(proj,"source/timesTableGame.m");
addLabel(myfile,"Engineers","Tom");

Get the label and add data.

label = findLabel(myfile,"Engineers","Tom");
label.Data = "Maintenance responsibility";
disp(label)

Label with properties:

            File: [1x80 char]
            Data: "Maintenance responsibility"
        DataType: 'char'
            Name: "Tom"
    CategoryName: "Engineers"

Open the Times Table App project. Use currentProject to create a project object from the currently loaded project.

openExample("matlab/TimesTableProjectExample")
proj = currentProject;

Create a new category of labels. Specify "double" as the data type. This is the data type MATLAB^® uses for numbers by default.

coverageCategory = createCategory(proj,"Coverage","double")

coverageCategory = 

  Category with properties:

                Name: "Coverage"
            DataType: 'double'
    LabelDefinitions: []

Create a label in the new category and add it to a file in the project.

createLabel(coverageCategory,"Test");
myfile = findFile(proj,"source/timesTableGame.m");
label = addLabel(myfile,"Coverage","Test");

Add numeric data to the label.

label.Data = 80

label = 

  Label with properties:

            File: "C:\myProjects\examples\TimesTableApp\source\timesTableGame.m"
        DataType: 'double'
            Data: 80
            Name: "Test"
    CategoryName: "Coverage"

Open the Times Table App project. Use currentProject to create a project object from the currently loaded project.

openExample("matlab/TimesTableProjectExample")
proj = currentProject;

Create a category of labels for file ownership, and specify single-valued to restrict only one label in the category per file.

engineersCategory = createCategory(proj,"Engineers","char", "single-valued");

Create a label in the new category and add it to a file in the project.

createLabel(engineersCategory,"Tom");
myfile = findFile(proj,"source/timesTableGame.m");
addLabel(myfile,"Engineers","Tom")

ans = 

  Label with properties:

            File: "C:\myProjects\examples\TimesTableApp\source\timesTableGame.m"
        DataType: 'char'
            Data: []
            Name: "Tom"
    CategoryName: "Engineers"

Create a second label in the new category and add it to the same file in the project. MATLAB replaces the first label with the new one.

createLabel(engineersCategory,"Harry");
addLabel(myfile,"Engineers","Harry")

ans = 

  Label with properties:

            File: "C:\myProjects\examples\TimesTableApp\source\timesTableGame.m"
        DataType: 'char'
            Data: []
            Name: "Harry"
    CategoryName: "Engineers"

Check to see if the first label is still attached to the file.

findLabel(myfile,"Engineers","Tom")

ans = 

  0×0 Label array with properties:

    File
    DataType
    Data
    Name
