AliasState.link_external

AliasState.link_external(ext_model)

Update variable addresses provided by external models

This method sets attributes including parent_model, parent_instance, uid, a, n, e_code and v_code. It initializes the e and v to zero.

Parameters:

ext_modelModel

Instance of the parent model

Returns:

None

Warning

link_external does not check if the ExtVar type is the same as the original variable to reduce performance overhead. It will be a silent error (a dimension too small error from dae.build_pattern) if a model uses ExtAlgeb to access a State, or vice versa.
