Retrieves attribute values associated with a particular attribute name for the specified use case scenario.
Input/Output Ifattr_name
does not exist for the specified element,status
receives the valuestm_attribute_name_not_found
.
● Attribute values might exist for attributes with no name. Therefore, if you supply contiguous apostrophes(’’)
forattr_name
, you retrieve all values for unnamed attributes.
● In most cases, attributes have only one value. However, there are some cases where more than one attribute value is simultaneously meaningful. For example, a module has an attributeimplementation
. The attributessoftware
andhardware
might both be meaningful for some modules. Therefore, Statemate provides the capability of assigning multiple values to attributes, and the function returns a list of these values. When there is a single value, the list consists of one component.
