Creating / editing a process flow using a script

Hello.

I'm investigating if I can create or edit a process flow using a script. Is it possible with FlexScript or C ++?

FlexSim 21.0.10

I don’t think it is a wise procedure to create a logic while a model is running, because there are dependencies that must be resolved before model start! Mainly the model gets compiled before run start. Any dynamical exchange may lead to unpredictable errors.

@Joerg Vogel ,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm not thinking about creating it while the model is running.

The current assumption is whether the process flow can be created automatically to some extent from the keyword information imported before running the model.

Is this possible?

It is possbile using the function_s commands of the process flow objects, but as Phil says - it's not supported - any future changes to the module might break anything you develop.

We do not currently support auto-building Process Flows. You can use Process Flow or code to auto-build a model, but not a Process Flow. This was a design choice we made when developing Process Flow.
