Function me::Parent(runtimeId)

me::Parent

The function me::Parent returns the parent of a runtime identifier.

me::Parent(
        runtimeId   ! (input) an element
)

Arguments

runtimeId

An element in the set AllIdentifiers referencing a runtime identifier.

Return Value

The function returns an element in the set AllIdentifiers referencing the parent of the referenced identifier or the empty element if the referenced identifier is a runtime library. When runtimeId doesn’t reference a runtime identifier an error will be raised.

Example

Viewing a small runtime library with prefix frerl in the model explorer:

Let

• ep_functionReferenceExampleRuntimeLib refer to the root of the runtime library, and

• ep_functionReferenceExampleRuntimeProc refer to a procedure inside the library, then the code:

_ep_parent := me::Parent( ep_functionReferenceExampleRuntimeProc );

display _ep_parent ;

produces the following in the listing file:

_ep_parent := 'FunctionReferenceExampleRuntimeLibrary' ;
