PHXBoolean

@PHXClassDecorator(PHXTException_Decorator)

class PHXBoolean(PHXSimpleType)

The ModelCenter type for booleans. This class adds the following features to the PHXSimpleType:

• value: boolean
• valueStr: the source string for the value, useful for error checking when the value is NaN

def __init__(self, varName)

initializes value to false

• @param varName: the name of the variable already declared in the wrapper to reference
• @type varName: string
• @rtype: void

  varName = checkIsInstance(varName, str)
  self.mcName = varName

def fromString(self, value)

converts a String representation to the internal value

• @param value: the value to convert
• @type value: string
• @rtype: void

  value = checkIsInstance(value, str)

  boolVal = bool(value)
  phxPython.boolSetValue(self.mcName, boolVal)

def getValue(self)

retrieves the current value of the variable

• @rtype: boolean

  return phxPython.boolGetValue(self.mcName)

def getValueStr(self)

retrieves the current value of the variable (in string form)

• @rtype: string

  return fromString()

def setValue(self, value)

sets the value for the variable

• @param value: the value
• @type value: boolean
• @rtype: void

  value = checkIsInstance(value, bool)
  phxPython.boolSetValue(self.mcName, value)

def toString(self)

converts the variable to a string

• @rtype: string

  return str(bool(phxPython.boolToString(self.mcName)))
