Error: UDf-scheme connectivity

CeesH · August 24, 2017, 09:07

Hi all,

I started building a GUI for my collection of UDFs, but I'm running into trouble.
I designed the scheme file pretty much analogous to the example in the fluent manual, and that part seems to work. However, when I click OK to start the execute_from_GUI UDF, it gives me an error (UDF was properly compiled).

The error is: ERROR: rpgetvar: MetaUDF/SWITCH_WritePartData: undefined variable.

It seems the following line (and all similar lines after that) isn't working

Code:

if(RP_Get_Boolean("MetaUDF/SWITCH_WritePartData"))

However, the variable has been properly defined in the scheme file. Am I overlooking something to connect the two?

Try using only lowercase letters for variables both in scheme file and UDF.

Code:

MetaUDF/SWITCH_WritePartData -> metaudf/switch_writepartdata

Hope it will help.

Best regards,
Zorin Alexander

It's solved, however the solution was... different.

Apperantly, the issue was not in the rp-variable. the parameter was still included as a definition macro, from previous versions. Of course trying to assign an rp-variable to a macro didn't work out too well.
