Title: Looping through Program Parameters
Post by: Jan on April 13, 2014, 12:54:50 PM

Just a quick (and probably quite easy to answer) question:

I know that you can access program parameters by calling  Program.Parameter().

But you need to know the parameter name for that.

So my question would be: how do I create a loop in c# that runs through all available parameters or input fields of a program and checks or applies settings.

Thanks in advance,
jan

Usually a program should know parameter names and what to do with it.
Anyway you can get the instance of a program module like this:

Code: [Select]

var module = Modules.WithName("The Program Name").Get();
foreach(ModuleParameter p in module.Instance.Properties)
{
    //....
}

for details about ModuleParameter class see:

Hey Gene,

as always, thanks for the quick response and the help!

Now that you explained this, it seems quite logical to create a local instance with the properties by calling the get() function. I'm slowly getting the details  ;)

Thanks again,
jan
