length of a queue

Hello,

I'm trying to write a code where I need to compare two queue lengths. For example, I need to make a decision based on the shortest queue. I know this can be found in the send to port list option, but I would like to know how to do it from the commands. How to read the queue length from a given queue?

Carlos,

you are using a fairly outdated version of FlexSim from before dot syntax was introduced. You can query the length of a queue with:
int amount = content(queue);

Good luck

Ralf

int amount = queue.subnodes.length;// queue is the reference of the object to.

Thanks @Jörg Vogel

It seems that this command doesn't work for the version that I'm currently using (7.3.6)

This is the error message that I get:
