A linkage options part describes how a generated EGL program implements
calls and transfers and how it accesses files. To edit the part's asynchLink
element, do as follows:
- To open an EGL build file with the EGL build parts editor, do as follows
in the Project Explorer:
- Right-click on the EGL build file
- Select Open With > EGL Build Parts Editor
- If the Outline view is not displayed, open that view by selecting Show
View > Outline from the Window menu.
- In the Outline view, right-click a linkage options part and click Open.
The EGL build parts editor displays the current part declaration.
- Click the Show AsynchLink Elements button on the editor toolbar.
- To add a new AsynchLink element, click Add or press the Insert
key, and type the Record Name (recordName) or select a record name from the
Record Name drop-down list.
- To change the default linkage type associated with your record name, you
can either:
- Select the corresponding row in the AsynchLink Elements list, then click
the Type field (localAsynch, remoteAsynch) once to put the field into edit
mode. Select the new linkage type from the Type drop-down list.
- In the Properties of selected asynchLink elements list, click the type
property once to put the Value field associated with that property into edit
mode. Select the new linkage type from the Value drop-down list.
- Other properties associated with your record name are listed in the Properties
of selected asynchLink elements list based on the linkage type. To change
the value of one of these properties, select the record name. In the Properties
of selected aynchLink elements list, click the property you want to define
once to put the Value field associated with that property into edit mode.
Define the new value by selecting an option in the Value drop-down list, or
by typing the new value in the Value field. For some properties, you can only
select an option in a drop-down list. For other properties, you can only type
a value in the Value field.
- Modify the asynchLink elements list as needed:
- To reposition an asynchLink element, select an element and click either Move
Up or Move Down.
- To remove an asynchLink element, select an element and click Remove or
press the Delete key.
