How to control "radio" type parameter?

taeseung over 1 year ago

I use CCSinvokeInstCdfCallbacks for generating pcell instance.

Therefore, for giving "obj" value in CCSinvokeInstCdfCallbacks i use "dbCreateParamInst" function.

However, i get a message that *Error* dbCreateParamInst: invalid propType - "radio"

How can i control "radio" type parameter?

Whilst CDF has radio and cyclic parameters (which are to allow radio or cyclic-type choices on forms), the underlying database does not have these. Instead, such parameters would be passed as strings - the radio/cyclic CDF parameters allow a selection amongst a set of string choices.

So pass "string" as the type do dbCreateParamInst for any parameters which are of CDF type radio or cyclic. See also How to pass different CDF parameter types float, cyclic, radio, boolean etc to pcDefinePCell statement? (the same is true for dbCreateParamInst)

The issue isn't really anything to do with the CCSinvokeInstCdfCallbacks as far as I can tell - just how you're calling dbCreateParamInst.
