			errtext:strValue 
			modelids:tokenStr

Parameters ​

  • <main-parameter> (strValue) - fileName, a string containing the file name and path to be imported.
  • target-mgroupid (idValue, optional) - if given, specifies the targetmodelgroup for the imported models.
  • protfile (strValue, optional) - if given, specifies a filename for a protocol file with log messages of the ADL import.
  • otherlib (modifier, optional) - if given, sets the option "import objects from other library".
  • import-versioned-file (modifier, optional) - if given, allows to import ADL files from versioned libraries and risk inconsistent data (like broken references) in special cases .
  • silent (modifier, optional) - if given, imports in a silent mode, i.e. no user interaction is necessary.

Returns ​

  • ecode (intValue) - specifies whether the adl file was imported successfully or not. ecode is set to 0 if the import worked, to 1 if not.
  • errtext (strValue) - contains an error text that could be displayed (in the case ecode = 1).
  • modelids (tokenStr) - is set to a list of the model ids that have been imported. This includes the applicationmodels as well. The modelids are separated by spaces (" ").

Details ​

The file that should be imported is specified with fileName.

If the argument silent is given, also a target-modelgroupid has to be specified. Otherwise the import will yield an error.

Importing an ADL file

First the file dialog is opened and the user selects an adl file. Next a temporary filename is retrieved. Then the selected file is imported. A protocol is written to the temporary file. If the import was successful, the content of the protocol file is displayed.
