If, ElseIf, Else, EndIf

You are viewing the documentation for an older COMSOL version. The latest version is available here.

Construct an If statement, enabling or disabling features depending on conditions in terms of parameters.

Syntax

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,<type>);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).createAfter(<ftag>,<type>,<postag>);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).set(property,<value>);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getType(property);

Description

Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,<type>) to add an If, ElseIf, Else, or EndIf feature after the current feature.

Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature().createAfter(<ftag>,<type>,<postag>) to add an If, ElseIf, Else, or EndIf feature after the feature tagged <postag>.

The following property is available for If and ElseIf only:

Table 3-64: Valid Property
Name	Value	Default	Description
condition	double	1	Logical condition in terms of parameters.

Example

Build a block if variant = 1, else build a cone:

Code for Use with Java

Model model = ModelUtil.create("Model1");

model.param().set("variant", "1");

model.component().create("comp1");

GeomSequence g = model.component("comp1").geom().create("geom1", 3);

g.create("if1", "If");

g.feature("if1").set("condition", "variant==1");

g.create("blk1", "Block");

g.create("else1", "Else");

g.create("cone1", "Cone");

g.create("endif1", "EndIf");

g.run();

model.param().set("variant", "2");

g.run();

Code for Use with MATLAB

model = ModelUtil.create('Model1');

model.param.set('variant', '1');

model.component.create('comp1');

g = model.component('comp1').geom.create('geom1', 3);

g.create('if1', 'If');

g.feature('if1').set('condition', 'variant==1');

g.create('blk1', 'Block');

g.create('else1', 'Else');

g.create('cone1', 'Cone');

g.create('endif1', 'EndIf');

g.run;

model.param.set('variant', '2');

g.run;
