About this task
To specify
which instances to initialize and whether to generate code for actors,
on the tab:
- Initial
instances adds code
to the main program to instantiate only those packages, classes, and
actors that you specify. The possible values are as follows:
- Explicit instantiates only the selected
elements.
- Derived instantiates the selected
elements
and any others to which these are related, either directly or indirectly.
For example, if class A is selected,
and class B is related to A, B is
added to the derived scope. If C is related to B, C is
also added to the derived scope, and so on.
Two
elements are related if there is a dependency or relation between
them, use types of the other element, or use events defined in the
other element.
- Generate
Code For Actors generates
code for the actors specified in the Initial Instances box.
- Initialization code where
you type any user code you want to use to instantiate initial instances
or to initialize any other elements. This code is added to the main
program after any automatically generated initialization code and
before the main program loop.
