Defining unions.

*******************************************************!)
model "Defining unions"
uses "mmsystem", "mmxprs"
declarations
u: string or real ! Scalar accepting 'string' or 'real'
a: any ! Entity accepting any type
L: list of any ! List of type 'any'
end-declarations
! Assigning a value determines the type of the union
u:="a"
writeln(u, " is string: ", u.typeid = string.id)
u:=7.5
writeln(u, " is real: ", u.typeid = real.id)
! The preceding line is equivalent to:
writeln(u, " is real: ", u is real)
! Assignment of basic types results in constants, all others are references
a:=10
writeln(a, ":", a.struct=STRUCT_CONST, a is integer)
a:=date(2020,12,24)
writeln(a, ":", a.struct=STRUCT_REF, a is date)
! Can specify type in assignment to force a particular type
a.real:=10
writeln(a, ":", a is real, a is integer)
a.text:="a text"
writeln(a, ":", a is text, a is string)
! Employ 'create' for types that do not support assignment such as 'mpvar':
create(a.mpvar)
writeln(getsol(a.mpvar), ":", a is mpvar)
! ... or to change the type without performing any assignment:
create(a.linctr)
writeln(getact(a.linctr), ":", a is linctr)
!**** Working with structured types
declarations
artype = dynamic array(range,string) of real ! Array type definition
rectype = public record ! Record type definition
val: real
end-record
end-declarations
!** List and set structures
L:=[2.5, "abc", {true,false}, [1,2,3]]
writeln("L=", L)
writeln(L(1), " is real:", L(1) is real)
writeln(L(3), ": is set:", L(3) is set,
" is set of boolean:", L(3) is set of boolean,
" elem. type is boolean:", L(3).eltype = boolean.id)
writeln(L(4), ": is list:", L(4).struct=STRUCT_LIST,
" elem. type is integer:", L(4).eltype = integer.id)
!** Defining and accessing arrays
! Optional: explicit type specification (req. if type not used in assignment)
! create(a.artype); a.array(1,"a").real:= 1.5
a.artype(1,"b"):= 1.5; a.artype(3,"b"):= -0.5
a.array(1,"cde").real:= 7.25; ! Type has been set by prev. assignments
writeln(a, " is array:", a is array,
" is array of real:", a is array of real)
writeln(" is of artype:", a is artype,
" elem. type is real:", a.eltype = real.id)
writeln(" dimensions:", a.array.nbdim, " size:", a.array.size)
forall(i in 1..a.array.nbdim)
writeln(" index", i, "=", a.array.index(i))
with A(I,J)=a.artype do
forall(i in I,j in J | exists(A(i,j))) writeln("A(",i,",",j,")=",A(i,j))
end-do
!** Record structure
a.rectype.val:=1.25
writeln(a, " is record:", a is record, " is rectype:", a is rectype)
!**** Defining a type name for a union of the 4 basic Mosel types
declarations
basictype = string or integer or real or boolean
B: array(range) of basictype ! Array of union type 'basictype'
end-declarations
B(1):="abc"; B(3):=5; B(4):=5.0
forall(i in 1..3) writeln(B(i), ":", B(i) is string)
writeln(B(2).struct=STRUCT_NIL) ! Undefined entry has no structure
writeln(B(2).typeid=STRUCT_NIL) ! Undefined entry has no type
writeln(B(3)=B(4), B(3).integer=B(4).real)
!**** Wrapping mechanism for subroutines: compatible union types are accepted
procedure dosomething(aunion: any)
writeln("In procedure: ", aunion)
end-procedure
a:=date(2020,12,24) ! u:=7.5; B(1):="abc"
dosomething(a)
dosomething(u)
dosomething(B(1))
writeln("B(10) is defined:", isdefined(B(10)))
dosomething(B(10)) ! Undefined entry
dosomething(L)
procedure dosomething2(aunion: basictype)
writeln("In procedure 2: ", aunion)
end-procedure
! dosomething2(a) ! This would result in an error since 'date' is not a compatible type
a:=1.5 ! u:=7.5; B(1):="abc"
dosomething2(a)
dosomething2(u)
dosomething2(B(1))
end-model
