envRegSetTrigger() & environment customization

eager

Hi,

        I want to change the ModeFiles when there are many modelfile lists, I use asiSetEnvOptVal function to set the default value, later I want change it,but when i use asiSetEnvOptVal Function again, the ModelFiles don't change,then I find the other function:envRegSetTrigger(),but the second argument must be a func,and the format like this:setTrigger(g_name old_value new_value),I cann't find further more help in the manul,anyone can help me?and if I use this function whether I can change the ModelFiles?

    Assuming you really meant asiSetEnvOptionVal , that ought to work - but maybe you're calling it wrong. What exactly are you passing to the function, and are you expecting it to change only for new ADE sessions or for open ADE sessions?

    I don't think that envRegSetTrigger will help at all.

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    I use asiSetEnvOptionVal to set the initial modelfile,it is ok,when I use it for the second time,I open setup->modelpath to check,it doesn't change at all,but I use envGetVal to get the return value,it's really changed as I set, and I found if I close the ADE,then open a new one again,it will be changed, actually I except it to change for the current open ADE sessions,any wrong?what should I do? or must add any other function?

    Regards

    You didn't answer my question about what you're passing to the function.

    My guess (again, this would be much easier had you answered my question, as it would avoid me having to guess) is that you're doing:

    asiSetEnvOptionVal(asiGetTool('spectre) 'modelFiles list(list("modelFile.scs" "NN")))

    or similar. If you pass the "tool" object as the first argument it will only affect the next time a new session is created. If you want to affect an existing session, you should pass the session object:

    asiSetEnvOptionVal(asiGetCurrentSession() 'modelFiles list(list("new.scs" "NN")))

    for example.

    Andrew.
