How can I feed generic-style parameter access into native-style parameter access?
In some cases a camera feature might be very new and not yet included into the interface-specific headers used for native-style programming in pylon. This can be the case for custom cameras for example.
In these cases it is always possible to use the feature using generic-style parameter access. You need to know the name and the type of the parameters you want to access. Generic-style parameter access is documented in the programmer's guide and in the ParametrizeCamera_GenericParameterAccess C++ sample, but here are some quick examples:
// your native style code// A new enum entry Line3FallingEdge has been added to// an enumeration type parameter, you can use the FromString// method in such casecamera.EventSelector.FromString("Line3FallingEdge");camera.EventNotification.SetValue(EventNotification_GenICamEvent);// A new enumeration type has been added to the cameraGenApi::CEnumerationPtr (camera.GetNodeMap().GetNode("NewEnumFeatureName"))->FromString("NewEnumItemName");// A new integer type has been added to the// camera, for other types you can use CBooleanPtr,// CStringPtr, CFloatPtr etc.GenApi::CIntegerPtr (camera.GetNodeMap().GetNode("NewIntegerFeatureName"))->SetValue(23);// your native style code// if you access a parameter often, you can create an// instance of one of the GenApi Ptr classesGenApi::INodeMap& nodeMap = camera.GetNodeMap();GenApi::CIntegerPtr newIntegerFeature(nodeMap.GetNode("NewIntegerFeatureName"));// use the parameternewIntegerFeature ->SetValue(23);
