How to recognize the task excuter by connection

Hi,

Could anyone help me to find out how to recognize a Dispatcher by connection of task excuter?

Something like using inobject(), outobject(), or centerobject() command.
I tested them, but none of them works for me.

Ex. inobject(MyTaskExcuter, 1);

I tried to find the Dispatcher by TaskExcuter's tree structure, but could not find it. Where I can have the connection information? If so, maybe I can referring the Dispatcher by node command associated with TaskExcuter.

node("/MyDispatcher", model()); works fine to me, but I would like to use TaskExcuter as a startnode.

Thanks for help in advance.

Sung,

If the task executers are hooked to the dispatcher correctly (ie output of dispatcher to input of TE) then you should be able to use the inobject(TE, port) command to return a reference to the dispatcher. To make things easy on yourself you may want to insure that the dispatcher is the only object connected to the TE via input port or insure that it is connected to input port 1.

You can rearrange an objects ports (as far as what port # is connected to what object) by using the properties window of the object.

If this doesn't work for you then you'll have to give a better explaination as to how your model is connected up or supply a sample of your model for us to look at.

Good Luck,

Your are right. I missed the port parameter for the command. The command works just fine with correct port number!

Thanks!!
