Detailed Description

Logical grouping

The simplest of all compound nodes is the Group node. It can be used to wrap a sequence of nodes together. Nodes contained in a Group form a higher-level unit that can be treated as one logical block by authors. This makes sense especially for nodes that belong together logically. Grouping allows the author to demonstrate this togetherness and to provide clarity through modular sequence design.

Like the Action node, the runtime behaviour of a Group node can be customized for different contexts by applying validities. Context-specific behaviour can be configured by implementing group flows for each anticipated context situation.

Syntax (simple group)

//Group 
group
{
    ...
}

Syntax (group with multiple realisations)

//Group with realisation
group 
{
    realization()
    {
        ...
    }
    [realization(validFor Validity)
    {
        ...
    }]
}

Examples

// Local Declarations
Integer Integer1;
 
// Flow
//Group
group 
{
    Integer1 = 123;
    if ((Integer1 == 123))
    {
        Hmi.ConfirmDialog("true", null, @MessageTypes:INFO, null);
    }
    else
    {
        Hmi.ConfirmDialog("false", null, @MessageTypes:INFO, null);
    }
}
 
//Group realisation
group 
{
    realization()
    {
        Integer1 = 123;
        if ((Integer1 == 123))
        {
            Hmi.ConfirmDialog("true", null, @MessageTypes: INFO, null);
        }
        else
        {
            Hmi.ConfirmDialog("false", null, @MessageTypes: INFO, null);
        }
    }
    realization(validFor Validity1)
    {
        Integer1 = 123;
        if ((Integer1 == 123))
        {
            Hmi.ConfirmDialog("true", null, @MessageTypes: INFO, null);
        }
        else
        {
            Hmi.ConfirmDialog("false", null, @MessageTypes: INFO, null);
        }
    }
}
