IncludeDiagram
This block provides a generic interface for including diagrams from other Activate models. It gives the possibility to choose between several diagrams.

Description
This block provides a generic interface for including diagrams from other Activate models. The other model is designated either by its absolute path or relative path. The relative path is with respect to the path of the current model (so the current model must have been saved previously in this case). The diagram within the external model is designated by its path in the model. For example for the top diagram, the path is empty and so the corresponding parameter should be entered as an OML empty string. The included diagram is included in the current model at compile time so changes made to the included diagram are taken into account at each simulation run. This block allows the definition of a context which is applied to the included diagram as an external context. Note that the properties of the Super Block containing the included diagram, such as masking properties, are not relevent to this operation.
Parameters
| Name | Label | Description | Data Type | Valid Values |
|---|---|---|---|---|
nin | Number of input ports | Defines the number of input ports of the block. This must match the number of input port blocks inside the included diagram. | Number | |
nevin | Number of input event ports | Defines the number of activation input ports of the block. This must match the number of activation input port blocks inside the included diagram. | Number | |
nout | Number of output ports | Defines the number of output ports of the block. This must match the number of output port blocks inside the included diagram. | Number | |
nevout | Number of output event ports | Defines the number of output activation ports of the block. This must match the number of output activation port blocks inside the included diagram. | Number |
| Name | Label | Description | Data Type | Valid Values |
|---|---|---|---|---|
ndiagrams | Number of possible diagrams | More than one diagrams may be specified to be included. This parameters specifies the number of specified diagrams. | Number | |
choice | Diagram choice | It specifies which diagram to include if more than one diagram is specified. | Scalar | |

includes | Include Diagrams | Structure | ||
includes/path | Model path | This parameter can be: - an absolute or relative path to the external model containing the included diagram. - an empty string ('') to designate the current simulated model. This is the default behavior. - a '.' to designate the model that contains the IncludeDiagram block. | Cell of strings | |
includes/dpath | Diagram path | The diagram path within the external model. It is the path within the model to get a specific diagram, which is accessible with / | Cell of strings | |
includes/context | Context | An OML script used as external context to the included diagram. | Cell of strings |
