IDL Connectivity Bridges: Using the Export Bridge Assistant |
|
Each parameter of the source object's methods has its own set of properties.
| Note If a method parameter has its Export property set to True, all parameters of the method to the left of the current parameter are marked for export as well so as to not leave holes in the parameters list and cause parameters to be out of sequence. If a parameter has its Export property set to False, all parameters to the right will also have their Export property set to False. If a parameter has its Export property set to True, the parent method will have its Export property set to True. |
 |
Table 7-11 describes the parameter information's properties and values.

Name of the procedure; shown in the sheet header only.

Mutability
|
Either In or In/Out. Use In for parameters that are constant (In-Only, meaning that their values cannot be changed). Use In/Out for parameters that are not constant and require a value to be passed back to the caller (can be In/Out or Out-only).

Return Type

One of the types supported by the Export Bridge technology. For the list, see Supported Data Types.

Array

Indicates if property is of type array: True if it is, False otherwise. If True, Convert Majority is sensitive.
|
|
Convert Majority
|

For more information, see Converting Array Majority.
