MmodPreprocess

This function preprocesses the specified Model Finder context. It extracts the active edges of the models contained within the Model Finder context and sets internal search settings so that future searches will be optimized for speed and robustness. The procedure is potentially quite lengthy (up to a few seconds) and increases the size of the Model Finder context significantly.

This function must be called before performing the first MmodFind() search. Call this function after all search settings have been set. When you save the Model Finder context, the model's preprocessing changes are not stored with the model. Upon restoration, the model must be preprocessed again.

Note that if some of the model's search settings are changed after a call to MmodPreprocess(), the model must be preprocessed again. To inquire if your model is in a preprocessed state, use MmodInquire() with M_PREPROCESSED (this value must be true to perform an MmodFind() search).

Note that this function reference has not been updated for a MIL system added during a MIL update. Refer to the MIL system's release note to see if there is complementary information.

Parameters

This function is not supported on the selected boards.

Parameters

ContextId

Specifies the Model Finder context of the model to preprocess. The Model Finder context must have been previously allocated on the system using MmodAlloc().

ControlFlag

Specifies whether to perform or undo the preprocessing of the model context. Set this parameter to one of the following values:

For specifying whether to perform preprocessing
Value	Description
M_DEFAULT	Performs the preprocessing of the model context.
M_RESET	Undoes preprocessing. Undoing preprocessing can be useful if you want to conserve computer memory within an application and preserve Model Finder context settings. (summarize) Undoes preprocessing. (more details...)

Compilation information

Header	Include mil.h.
Library	Use mil.lib; milmod.lib.
DLL	Requires mil.dll; milmod.dll.
