Unassigned submodule parameters¶

Name	Type	Default value	Description
source.displayStringTextFormat	string	“created %p pk (%l)”	Determines the text that is written on top of the submodule, supports displaying pars, watches, and module-specific information
source.packetNameFormat	string	“%a-%c”	See directives in module documentation
source.packetRepresentation	string	“byteCount”	Determines the chunk of the packet data
source.packetProtocol	string	“unknown”
source.packetLength	int
source.packetData	int	-1
source.attachCreationTimeTag	bool	true
source.attachIdentityTag	bool	true
source.attachDirectionTag	bool	true
source.clockModule	string	“”	Relative path of a module that implements IClock(1,:ref:2 <neddoc-msg-inet-iclock>); optional
source.initialProductionOffset	double	-1s	Initial duration before which packets are not produced. When negative, then produce packet in initialize()
source.productionInterval	double		Elapsed time between subsequent packets pushed to the connected packet consumer
source.scheduleForAbsoluteTime	bool	true	When a clock is used, “relative” means that setting the clock will not affect the simulation time of the event

module SourceApp like IApp

    gates:
        input socketIn;
        output socketOut;
    submodules:
        source: <default("ActivePacketSource")> like IActivePacketSource {
            @display("p=150,150");
        }
    connections allowunconnected:
        source.out --> socketOut;
}
