Component Instances and Interfaces
« on: March 15, 2007, 12:51:54 pm »
Hi

Let's assume I have a component 'MPEG Decoder' which provides an interface 'Analog-Out'.

I want now to specify two new components which both have the MPEG decoder as a subcomponent and provide the interface 'Analog-Out' too - a DVD Player and a DVD Reorder.

I embed a MPEG decoder instance in the DVD Player and DVD Recorder components. They show up without an interface ....

I would now like to show the wiring of the Analog-Out interface of the respective MPEG decoder instance in the DVD Recoder and in the DVD Player.

??? How do I get a the Analog-Out interface of the  MPEG decoder instances?
??? Is this the wrong approach? What is the correct approach?

Regards
Christian

Just found out that the interface in the instance shows up as an embedded element if the checkbox 'show owned / inhereted' is selected.  ;D
