Description

This function inquires information about an expected marker characteristic, context setting, or measurement result buffer setting. To specify a marker characteristic, use MmeasSetMarker(); to specify settings for a measurement context or measurement result buffer, use MmeasControl(). To retrieve the results of a measurement operation (MmeasFindMarker() or MmeasCalculate()), use MmeasGetResult() or MmeasGetResultSingle().

If the inquired setting is set to M_DEFAULT (for example, in MmeasControl()), MmeasInquire() will return M_DEFAULT. To inquire the actual default value, add M_DEFAULT to the InquireType parameter.

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 which MIL system’s documentation you should use in its place and any possible differences.

Parameters

This function is not supported on the selected boards.

This function reference has not been updated for the selected MIL system. To show the content of this page, choose a second MIL system; refer to the MIL system's release note to see which MIL system’s documentation to choose and any possible differences.

Parameters

MeasId

Specifies the identifier of the marker, measurement context, or measurement result buffer about which to inquire information.

For specifying the measurement object identifier
Value	Description
M_DEFAULT	Specifies the default measurement context of the current MIL application.
Measurement context ID	Specifies a measurement context.
Measurement marker ID	Specifies a measurement marker.
Measurement result buffer ID	Specifies a measurement result buffer.

InquireType

Specifies the type of setting about which to inquire.

For certain inquire types, two values can be returned for a stripe marker (one for each of the edges). In these cases, the value for the first edge is returned to FirstUserVarPtr and that of the second edge to SecondUserVarPtr. For an edge or circle marker, all results are returned to FirstUserVarPtr. Inquire types which return a position always return the X-coordinate to FirstUserVarPtr and the Y-coordinate to SecondUserVarPtr.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be specified.

FirstUserVarPtr

Accepts the address of one of the following (see the Parameter associations section for specifics on which is expected):

MIL_DOUBLE
MIL_ID
MIL_INT
MIL_INT32
MIL_INT64

Specifies the address in which to write the requested information. Since the MmeasInquire() function also returns the requested information, you can set this parameter to M_NULL.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be returned.

SecondUserVarPtr

Accepts the address of one of the following (see the Parameter associations section for specifics on which is expected):

M_NULL
MIL_DOUBLE
MIL_ID
MIL_INT
MIL_INT32
MIL_INT64

Specifies the address in which to write the requested information. Since the MmeasInquire() function also returns the requested information, you can set this parameter to M_NULL. If only one value is to be returned, it will be returned to FirstUserVarPtr and SecondUserVarPtr should be set to M_NULL.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be returned.
