Properties


o Property Behaviors() As (Read Only)
Returns the collection of children behaviors.
Example:
This example retrieves in BehCollection the collection of Behaviors currently managed by a Behavior Beh. 
 Dim BehCollection As Behaviors
 Set BehCollection = Beh.Behaviors

Methods


o Sub Activate()
Activates a behavior.
Example:
This example activates a Behavior Beh. 
 Beh.Activate
o Sub Deactivate()
Deactivates a behavior.
Example:
This example deactivates a Behavior Beh. 
 Beh.Deactivate
o Func GetInput( pName) As
Returns the value of one available input of the behavior.
Parameters:
pName
the name of the input
Example:
This example retrieves in BehParameter the published input CATIAParameter Nb_Cylinder currently managed by a Behavior Beh. 
 Dim BehParameter as Parameter
 Set BehParameter = Beh.GetInput("Nb_Cylinder")
o Func GetOutput( pName) As
Returns the value of one available output of the behavior.
Parameters:
pName
the name of the output
Example:
This example retrieves in BehPower the published output CATIAParameter Power currently managed by a Behavior Beh. 
 Dim BehPower as Parameter
 Set BehPower = Beh.GetOutput("Power")
o Sub PutOutput( pName,
oValue)

It can be applicable from a CATIABehaviorVBScript Execution for instance.
Parameters:
pName
the name of the output
oValue

 Dim BehPower as Parameter
 ...
 Beh.PutOutput "Power", BehPower
o Func TestInput( pName) As
Tests if the behavior's input is set or not.
Parameters:
pName
the name of the input
Example:
This example tests the existence of the value of the published CATIAParameter Nb_Cylinder currently managed by a Behavior Beh. 
 if (Beh.TestInput("Nb_Cylinder"))
o Func TestOutput( pName) As
Tests if the behavior's output is set or not.
Parameters:
pName
the name of the output
Example:
This example tests the existence of the value of the published CATIAParameter Power currently managed by a Behavior Beh.
