Takes model and returns the absolute error tolerance.
Takes model and returns algebraic solver being used.
Returns a result for what button is pressed in editor. Will return error, 1 - ok, 2 - cancel.
Takes model and returns the initial step size.
Takes model and returns the value stored in the initial time.
Takes model and returns the Jacobian method being used.
Takes model and returns the maximum number of steps.
Takes model and returns the maximum step size.
Takes model and returns the minimum step size.
Takes model and returns the number of times it consecutively crosses zero.
Takes model and returns the relative error tolerance.
Gets a simulation object from a given diagram.
Gets a model from a given simulation object.
Gets filepath of the source of the diagram that is used for the simulation.
Takes model and returns the solver being used.
Takes model and returns the time tolerance.
Takes model and returns the time tolerance in relation to zero crossing.
Takes model and returns the zero crossing threshold.
Returns a value representing if a simulation has animations enabled.
Takes model and errorTolerance and sets the absolute error tolerance value.
Takes model and solver and sets the algebraic solver of the model.
Sets the simulation parameters of a diagram to the default values.
Takes model and time and sets the final time value.
Takes model and initialSize and sets initial step size.
Takes model and time and sets the initial time value.
Takes model and method and sets the Jacobian method to be used.
Takes model and numSteps and sets the maximum number of steps.
Takes model and maxSize and sets maximum step size.
Takes model and minSize and sets the minimum step size property.
Takes model and num and sets the number of consecutive zero crossing. Used to help see if functions get stuck on zero.
Takes model and scale and sets the real time scale value.
Takes model and errorTolerance and sets the relative error tolerance value.
Sets the simulation to have animation enabled.
Sets a flag for profiling of the simulation. When true this function generates a CSV file in the model's temporary directory when the simulation is run. The file contains the simulation's flag information for all the simulation blocks. Can use bdeGetModelTempDir to find the temporary directory where the information is stored.
Sets the simulation to have results enabled.
Sets the filename and path for the results of a simulation.
Sets a simulations results to be shown in the ui.
Sets the simulation results to be stored in the model's temporary directory.
Takes model and solver and sets solver to be used.
Takes model and timeTolerance and sets the time tolerance property.
Takes model and timeTolerance and sets the time tolerance of zero crossing.
Takes model and threshold and sets the zero crossing threshold property. When zero crossing is detected on a function e.g. F, F changes the sign and becomes almost zero. When the absolute value becomes greater than the threshold, the zero-crossing search resumes. This is used to handle functions that get stuck on zero.
Shows the last error of a simulation.
