Hi All,

I would like to wrap the sending and receiving into a function. This function should run on my test component, which has two test ports. Thats why I have to determine on which port the send and receive should be performed.

see below a more easy example which describe what I want to do:


type component tester {
  port testPort device_1;
  port testPort device_2;
}

function f_send( in testport port ,in OCTETSTRING msg) runs on tester {
    port.send( msg);
}
   


Any Idea how to implement this in TTCN-3 ?

Thanks,

Johannes

Hello Johannes,

One option is to use boolean/integer with a switch to detect on which port you will send the message. Like this:

function f_send( in integer p_portN ,in OCTETSTRING msg) runs on tester {
    if (p_portN == 1){
        device_1.send(msg);
    }else{
         device_2.send(msg);
    }
}


Best regards,
Naum

You can use port types as formal function parameters with TITAN, which makes it possible to pass port instances as actual parameters to functions. Nevertheless, you cannot pass the port instance as a value parameter.

Here's a small sample to demonstrate:

module test
{

type port testPort message {
    inout octetstring;
} 

type component tester {
  port testPort device_1;
  port testPort device_2;
}

function f_send( testPort p ,in octetstring m) runs on tester {
    p.send( m);
}

testcase tc() runs on tester
{
    map(mtc:device_1, system:device_1);
    map(mtc:device_2, system:device_2);
    f_send(device_1, '0123'O);
    f_send(device_2, '2345'O);
}

control
{
    execute(tc());
}

}


Please note the changes compared to your initial code snippet!

Thanks a lot roland, that is exactly that what I searched for.
