IPFSBuilder Interface
The IPFSBuilder is an interface for building a PFS structure or file in a "line by line" manner.

Namespace: DHI.PFS
Assembly: DHI.PFS (in DHI.PFS.dll) Version: 16.0.0.0 (11.1.1.1111)
Syntax
public interface IPFSBuilder

The IPFSBuilder type exposes the following members.

Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodAddBool
Add a Boolean value to keyword.

The Boolean value is written true or false.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a keyword.

Public methodAddClob
Add a Clob parameter to keyword

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a keyword.

Public methodAddClobBool
Add a bool value to the current Clob parameter.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a Clob.

Public methodAddClobDouble
Add a double precision floating-point (real) value to Clob.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a Clob.

Public methodAddClobFilename
Add a file name value to Clob.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a Clob.

Public methodAddClobFloat Obsolete.
Add a single precision floating-point (real) value to Clob.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a Clob.

Public methodAddClobInt
Add an integer (4 byte) value to the current Clob parameter.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a Clob.

Public methodAddClobString
Add a string value to Clob.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a Clob.

Public methodAddDouble
Add a double precision floating-point (real) value to keyword.

The output format is some 'default' format. Check if it may cause loss of precision.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a keyword.

Public methodAddFileName
Add a filename (string) value parameter to keyword.

A file name string is in general a relative path string, relative to the pfs file at hand. If an absolute file name is entered, the PFS system will try to make the path relative to the pfs file, when the pfs file is written to disc, hence the relative string value in the PFS file will depend on the location of the pfs file for absolute file names.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a keyword.

Public methodAddInt
Add a four-byte integer to keyword.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a keyword

Public methodAddKeyword
Add a keyword to a section, ie the start of a list of parameter list.

This function is used to define the start of a list of parameters. It has no end-counterpart, and the keyword scope is automaticalle "ended" by any other keyword or section related method.

Restrictions: This function must be called within the scope of a section.

Public methodAddSection
Start a new section within the scope of a target/section
Public methodAddString
Add a null-terminated character string to keyword.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a keyword.

Public methodAddTarget
Add a new target (top-level section) to a parameter file object.

This function is always the first function to be called, and the target definition must be terminated by a pfsEndSection.

A target is ended by calling EndSection

Restrictions: Possible previous targets must be have been properly terminated by calls to pfsEndSection.

Public methodAddUndefinedPar
Add an undefined parameter to keyword.

Undefined can mean different things for different applications, though the most common is "use default value". Before using the undefined parameter, be sure that the model/tool that uses the PFS file supports handling undefined parameters.

Restrictions: The function is only valid within the scope of a keyword.

Public methodEndSection
Terminate a target or a section.

Restrictions: Each pfsEndSection must match a pfsAddTarget or a pfsAddSection.
