Re: [foxboro] HLBL: request the BLOCK_NAME within sequencecode

Andreas,

Both BLOCK_NAME and COMPOUND_NAME are available for use within HLBL code.
To construct names of related blocks, put together a string assignment using
these values.  Then use the defined string with the usual 'blockname'
syntax.

For example:

myname := BLOCK_NAME;
blockname := "IND",myname(5..8);

value := ::'blockname'.II0001;

Hi Ashley,

the trick is that I use general include files in my code.

And I want split the "unknown" block into separat pieces. One piece of
the block name is used to generate other blocknames where I would like
to gather data from.

example:

MYNAME :=3D STRING BLOCK_NAME;
MYNAME :=3D MYNAME(5..8);

VALUEfromAnotherBlock :=3D ::IND'MYNAME'.II0001;

Andreas
