Class prop. default value

[SebGue]

Hello @BonneelP,

is it possible to set set a class property of type X to a default value of x. With x is an inherited class of X.
Less abstract: I have created an end_winding prop. on Winding. Prop. type is abstract class EndWinding. Now I would like to set this prop. to EndWindingCirc (inherited by EndWinding) by default.
How could I do that?

Best regards, Sebastian

Hello Sebastian,

The idea would be to define the default value of the property as "EndWindingCirc( )" (in the .csv), then in the init the default value would be -1 and in the setter if we have -1 we set EndWindingCirc( ) (to avoid sharing the same object in all instances).
I think that we already have this feature in the class generator but I need to check.
By the way, we opened an issue a long time ago on endwinding #32 so if you plan to share your work on this aspect it could be great to talk about it in this issue :)

Best regards,
Pierre

Hello Pierre,

My fault, I missed the brackets when setting default to EndWindingCirc. Now EndWindingCirc is imported to winding classes but still defaults to EndWinding. So it seems to be implemented partially only. BR Sebastian

OT: Is there also an old issue on vents since I found a but there as well?

I don't think that we have an issue on ventilation ducts for now.
