    Syntax

    allocation = allocate(allocScenario,sourceElement,targetElement)

    Description

    allocation = allocate(allocScenario,sourceElement,targetElement) creates a new allocation between the source element sourceElement and target element targetElement.

    To remove an allocation, use the deallocate function.

    example

    Examples

    collapse all

    Create two new models with one component each.

    mSource = systemcomposer.createModel("Source_Model_Allocation");
systemcomposer.openModel("Source_Model_Allocation");
sourceComp = addComponent(get(mSource,"Architecture"),"Source_Component");
mTarget = systemcomposer.createModel("Target_Model_Allocation");
systemcomposer.openModel("Target_Model_Allocation");
targetComp = addComponent(get(mTarget,"Architecture"),"Target_Component");

    Create an allocation set named MyNewAllocation.

    allocSet = systemcomposer.allocation.createAllocationSet("MyNewAllocation",...
     "Source_Model_Allocation","Target_Model_Allocation");

    Get the default allocation scenario.

    defaultScenario = getScenario(allocSet,"Scenario 1");

    Allocate components between models.

    allocation = allocate(defaultScenario,sourceComp,targetComp);

    Save the allocation set.

    save(allocSet)

    Open the Allocation Editor.

    systemcomposer.allocation.editor

    allocation

    An allocation establishes a directed relationship from architectural elements — components, ports, and connectors — in one model to architectural elements in another model.

    Resource-based allocation allows you to allocate functional architectural elements to logical architectural elements and logical architectural elements to physical architectural elements.
    allocation scenario

    An allocation scenario contains a set of allocations between a source and a target model.

    Allocate between model elements in an allocation scenario. The default allocation scenario is called Scenario 1.

    allocation set

    An allocation set consists of one or more allocation scenarios that describe various allocations between a source and a target model.

    Create an allocation set with allocation scenarios in the Allocation Editor. Allocation sets are saved as MLDATX files.
