idx=csim('create',class); creates an object of the class
specified by the string class and returns a uint32index or handle for the created object. This
index/handle is the only means to access the created object.
idx=csim('create',class,N); creates N objects
of the class specified by the string class and returns a
uint32 vector of indices/handles for the created objects.
The handles returned by idx=csim('create',...); are used to
identify the objects later in 'set', 'get' and
'connect' calls.
See the Class Reference for a full description of
all available classes.
set
csim('set',field,value); sets the
network field specified by the string
field to value.
csim('set',idx,field,value); sets the field specified
by the string field of the object with index/handle
idx to value. idx can also be a vector
of indices/handles of objects of the same class.
If idx is a vector and value is a scalar then the
fields of all objects are set to value.
If idx and value are vectors of the same size then
the field field of all objects idx(i) is set to
value(i).
csim('set',idx,f1,v1,f2,f2,...,fn,vn); sets the fields
specified by the strings f1, f2, ..., fn
of the object with index/handle idx to the values
v1, v2, ... vn. idx and
v1, v2, ... vn can also be vectors.
connect
csim('connect',dstIdx,srcIdx); sets up a signal flow
from the source srcIdx object (e.g. a synapse) to the
destination object dstIdx (e.g. the postsynaptic neuron)
where dstIdx and srcIdx are indices/handles to
objects.
dstIdx and srcIdx can also be vectors. In that
case for each i=1:length(srcIdx); a signal flow
is set up.
csim('connect', dstIdx, srIdx, viaIdx); for each
i=1:length(srcIdx); a signal flow of the form
is set up where dstIdx,
srcIdx, and viaIdx are vectors of the same length
of indices/handles to objects.
csim('connect',recIdx,objIdx,fieldName); connects the
object with handle objIdx to the recorder with handle
recIdx. The recorder recIdx will then record a
trace of the values of the field fieldName of the objects
specified by the vector of hadles objIdx.
