API, Reference Guides
Overview of external readers and the Altair Binary Format, the generic ASCII reader, running applications in batch mode, using Tcl/Tk commands, translators, and result math.
- Extensions
  Extensions are programs integrated with the application to enhance or extend the user experience.
- External Readers and Altair Binary Format
  Altair Binary Format (ABF) is the standard binary format read by the program. A library called abflib allows you to create files in ABF.
- Generic ASCII Reader
  A generic ASCII reader is now available which allows you to bring custom results directly into HyperView. The Altair ASCII format is useful for reading the results of any in-house or propriety codes which are saved in a generic format.
- Batch Mode
  Batch mode allows you perform a series of operations outside the program interface.
- External Resources
  External resources can be registered in preference files, session files, or Templex files. If an external resource is registered in a program session, it is automatically registered in the session file when the session is saved.
- Python API

poIAdvancedQuery GetSubcaseList

Gets the subcase list applicable for the advanced query.

Syntax

advancedQuery_handle GetSubcaseList

Application

HyperView Tcl Query

Description

This command is used to get the list of subcases which are applicable for the advanced query.

Example

To get the list of subcases for the advanced query:

hwi OpenStack
hwi GetActiveClientHandle client
set ruleID [client AddQueryRule extreme]
client GetQueryRuleHandle rule_handle $ruleID
rule_handle SetExtreme "TopN 3"
set advQueryID [client AddAdvancedQuery]
client GetAdvancedQueryHandle advancedQuery_handle $advQueryID
advancedQuery_handle AddSimulations "current" "current"
advancedQuery_handle GetSubcaseList
hwi CloseStack

Errors

This command returns HW_InvalidHandle, if the core object associated with the advanced query handle does not exist anymore.
