Get available choices in variant component

Since R2019a

Syntax

compList = getChoices(variantComponent)

Description

compList = getChoices(variantComponent) returns the list of choices available for a variant component.

Examples

Get First Variant Choice

Create a model, get the root architecture, create a one variant component, add two choices for the variant component, and get the first choice.

model = systemcomposer.createModel("archModel");
systemcomposer.openModel("archModel");
arch = get(model,"Architecture");
variant = addVariantComponent(arch,"Component1");
compList = addChoice(variant,["Choice1","Choice2"]);
choices = getChoices(variant);
variantChoice = choices(1)

variantChoice = 
  Component with properties:

     IsAdapterComponent: 0
           Architecture: [1x1 systemcomposer.arch.Architecture]
                   Name: 'Choice1'
                 Parent: [1x1 systemcomposer.arch.Architecture]
                  Ports: [0x0 systemcomposer.arch.ComponentPort]
             OwnedPorts: [0x0 systemcomposer.arch.ComponentPort]
      OwnedArchitecture: [1x1 systemcomposer.arch.Architecture]
             Parameters: [0x0 systemcomposer.arch.Parameter]
               Position: [15 15 65 76]
                  Model: [1x1 systemcomposer.arch.Model]
         SimulinkHandle: 71.0012
