waveform object as function argument

Steve Mikes

Does anyone know why this is happening? wave is a parametric waveform.

 procedure( printWave(wave)

   plot(wave) ; this works fine

   plot( value(wave "param1" value1) )  ;this does not work, it says the argument is not a waveform

)

 

If I do the latter statement outside of the procedure, it works fine. Any suggestions? Thanks!

  • You can use famGetSweepName(wave) to get the outer sweep name - and add an integer argument to get each nested value:

    for(dim 0 5 printf("%L\n" famGetSweepName(wave dim)))

    "p1"
    "p2"
    "p3"
    "p4"
    "dc"

    And you can use famGetSweepValues(wave) to get the outer sweep values. For example, in my case this returns (1.0 2.0). I can then do:

    nextInner=value(wave "p1" 1.0)

    and then I can do famGetSweepValues(nextInner) and so on...

    Or you could just use ocnPrint() - but maybe that's not in the format you want.
