ConnectModules

The Construct method tells Voxler which command to create. The Construct method is accessed from the CommandApi object. The ConnectModules type allows the Voxler program to connect two modules in the Network Manager.

The Construct method must be used in combination with the Option method and the Do or DoOnce method to create an object.

Syntax

Example

This example opens the Gold (ScatterPlot) example file. It adds a Gridder module and connects the Gridder module to the Data module.

Sub Main

'Declares VoxlerApp as an object

Dim VoxlerApp As Object

'Creates an instance of the Voxler application object

'and assigns it to the variable named "VoxlerApp"

Set VoxlerApp = CreateObject("Voxler.Application")

'Make Voxler visible

VoxlerApp.Visible = True

'Access CommandApi

Set CommandApi = VoxlerApp.CommandApi

'Open an existing file

CommandApi.Construct ("Open")

CommandApi.Option ("Path", VoxlerApp.Path+"\Samples\Gold (ScatterPlot).voxb")

CommandApi.DoOnce()

'Add a gridder module using the CreateModule Construct command

CommandApi.Construct ("CreateModule")

CommandApi.Option("AutoConnect","False")

CommandApi.Option("DefaultPosition", "True")

CommandApi.Option("SourceModule", "GoldConcentration.dat")

CommandApi.Option("Type","Gridder")

CommandApi.Do()

'Connect the gridder and data modules

CommandApi.Construct ("ConnectModules")

CommandApi.Option("SourceModule", "GoldConcentration.dat")

CommandApi.Option("TargetModule", "Gridder")

CommandApi.Do()

End Sub
