Connecting to an external function
To specify the function's input values or retrieve its output values, follow these steps:
1. Tear off the attribute representing the record you want to access.
The record appears as a stand-alone part on the free-form surface. The fields of the record appear as attributes on the record's public interface.
2. Do one of the following:
o To set input values for the function, make attribute-to-attribute or event-to-attribute connections to the attributes representing the fields of the record. Remember that these connections must set the input values before the function is run.
o To retrieve output values, make attribute-to-attribute or attribute-to-action connections from the attributes representing the fields of the record.
3. To call the external function, make an event-to-action or attribute-to-action connection to the execute action of the external function part.
