The Port class was introduced by the SBML Level 3 Hierarchical Model Composition package (“comp”) to allow a Model to define a standard interface between it and other models that might use it as a submodel. It derives from the SBaseRef class, and the elements defined there refer to elements in the same parent Model as the Port object. A Port object instance therefore uses those attributes to define a port for a component in a model. When other SBaseRef or SBaseRef-derived classes refer to a Port object using a "portRef" attribute, the element being referenced is the element the Port object itself points to.
In the present formulation of the Hierarchical Model Composition package, the use of ports is not enforced, nor is there any mechanism to restrict which ports may be used in what ways—they are only an advisory construct. Future versions of this SBML package may provide additional functionality to support explicit restrictions on port use. For the present definition of Hierarchical Model Composition, users of models containing ports are encouraged to respect the modeler's intention in defining ports, and use the port definitions to interact with components through their ports (when they have ports defined) rather than interact directly with the components.
The required attribute "id" is used to give an identifier to a Port object so that other objects can refer to it. The attribute has type PortSId and is essentially identical to the SBML primitive type SId, except that its namespace is limited to the identifiers of Port objects defined within a Model object. In parallel, the PortSId type has a companion type, PortSIdRef, that corresponds to the SBML primitive type SIdRef; the value space of PortSIdRef is limited to PortSId values.

Returns the libSBML type code of this object instance.
SBML_
. The set of possible type codes for core elements is defined in the enumeration SBMLTypeCode_t, and in addition, libSBML plug-ins for SBML Level 3 packages define their own extra enumerations of type codes (e.g., SBMLLayoutTypeCode_t for the Level 3 Layout package). Note that different Level 3 package plug-ins may use overlapping type codes; to identify the package to which a given object belongs, call the getPackageName()
method on the object.Reimplemented from SBaseRef.

DEPRECATED FUNCTION: DO NOT USE.
Deletes the referenced object, plus any other elements that element points to through ReplacedElement or ReplacedBy children. Instead of calling this function directly, use 'CompModelPlugin::instantiateSubmodels' instead, which deals with all the intricacies of replacements and deletions, and gives you access to the non-flattened hierarchical form of the model.

Replaces all uses of a given meta identifier attribute value with another value.
ID
; the SBML object attribute itself is typically named metaid
. All attributes that hold values referring to values of type ID
are of the XML data type IDREF
. They are also sometimes informally referred to as "metaid refs", in analogy to the SBML-defined type SIdRef
.This method works by looking at all meta-identifier attribute values, comparing the identifiers to the value of oldid
. If any matches are found, the matching identifiers are replaced with newid
. The method does not descend into child elements.
oldid | the old identifier |
newid | the new identifier |
|
virtual |
Replaces all uses of a given SIdRef
type attribute value with another value.
In SBML, object identifiers are of a data type called SId
. In SBML Level 3, an explicit data type called SIdRef
was introduced for attribute values that refer to SId
values; in previous Levels of SBML, this data type did not exist and attributes were simply described to as "referring to an identifier", but the effective data type was the same as SIdRef
in Level 3. These and other methods of libSBML refer to the type SIdRef
for all Levels of SBML, even if the corresponding SBML specification did not explicitly name the data type.
This method works by looking at all attributes and (if appropriate) mathematical formulas in MathML content, comparing the referenced identifiers to the value of oldid
. If any matches are found, the matching values are replaced with newid
. The method does not descend into child elements.
oldid | the old identifier |
newid | the new identifier |
Reimplemented from SBaseRef.

virtual |
Replaces all uses of a given UnitSIdRef
type attribute value with another value.
UnitSId
. In SBML Level 3, an explicit data type called UnitSIdRef
was introduced for attribute values that refer to UnitSId
values; in previous Levels of SBML, this data type did not exist and attributes were simply described to as "referring to a unit identifier", but the effective data type was the same as UnitSIdRef
in Level 3. These and other methods of libSBML refer to the type UnitSIdRef
for all Levels of SBML, even if the corresponding SBML specification did not explicitly name the data type.This method works by looking at all unit identifier attribute values (including, if appropriate, inside mathematical formulas), comparing the referenced unit identifiers to the value of oldid
. If any matches are found, the matching values are replaced with newid
. The method does not descend into child elements.

This method fails if the id
is not a valid syntax for an SId.

This method fails if the id is not a valid syntax for an SIdRef (LIBSBML_INVALID_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE), or if the SBaseRef already points to an element of the submodel using a different interface (LIBSBML_OPERATION_FAILED). A sBaseRef must use exactly one method to point to a submodel element.

This method fails if the id is not a valid syntax for an IDREF (LIBSBML_INVALID_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE), or if the SBaseRef already points to an element of the submodel using a different interface (LIBSBML_OPERATION_FAILED). An sBaseRef must use exactly one method to point to a submodel element.
