Name the interface block; helpful when there are multiple
This keyword is related to the topics:
Alias: none
Argument(s): STRING
Default: use of last interface parsed
The optional id_interface
keyword accepts a string that uniquely identifies this interface block. A model can then use this interface by specifying the same string in its interface_pointer
specification.
Default Behavior
If the id_interface
specification is omitted, a particular interface specification will be used by a model only if that model does not include an interface_pointer
and the interface block was the last (or only) one parsed.
Usage Tips
id_interface
can be safely omitted from the interface block (and interface_pointer
omitted from the model specification(s)), since there is no ambiguity.For example, a model specification including
model interface_pointer = 'I1'
will link to an interface with
id_interface = 'I1'
