Partition part (ARINC for VxWorks code)

Integrations (PTC products, 3rd party products and code) > Code integration (Ada, ARINC 653, C, C#, C++, IDL, Java, SQL and VB) > ARINC 653 for VxWorks 653 code > ARINC 653 for VxWorks 653 profile items > Partition part (ARINC for VxWorks code)

A Partition Part represents the use of a Partition within a Module. Partition Parts are scoped to Modules, and created on them. Partitions are created automatically when a Partition Part is created.

A Partition Part models a <Partition> element of an ARINC 653 configuration. Most of the <Partition> attributes are generated from properties of the Partition that types the Partition Part.

The structure of the <Partition> element is as follows for VxWorks:

Create a Partition Part on a Configuration Diagram: click the

Partition Part button, and then click within the Module.

When you create an Integration Project, the profile creates a Configuration Diagram that is named '<module name> Configuration Diagram'.

When you create a Partition Part, the profile creates the following items in the model:

• A Partition Part on the Configuration Diagram.

• A Partition that types the Partition Part. The Partition item is scoped to the Integration Project.

After creating a Partition Part on a Configuration Diagram, you must create a Dependency link between the Partition Part and the appropriate Partition HM Table

Specify the PartitionIdentifier property of the Partition Part through its Property Pages: on the Partition Part's Property Pages, click the Partition Part tab, and then set the tagged value as required.

Specify additional properties of the Partition Part through it associated Partition item: on the Partition's Property Pages, click the Partition tab, and then set the tagged values as required.

To schedule a Partition Part, drag the Partition Part to a Module Schedule, and then use the diagram to schedule time for the Partition Part. See Module schedule (ARINC for VxWorks code).

When shown on a Configuration Diagram, a Partition Part's notation is as follows:

When shown on a Module Schedule, a Partition Part's notation is as follows:

You can view all the Partition Parts in the model through the Partition Part folder in the ARINC 653 Profile pane.

A Partition Part is based on a UML Attribute.

The following sections provide information about how a Partition Part is used in the model.

ARINC properties

These properties are set on the Partition Part tab of the Partition Part's Property Pages.

• PartitionIdentifer - generated as the PartitionIdentifier attribute of the <Partition> element.

The Name of the Partition Part is generated as the Name attribute of the <Partition> element, and generated as the PartitionNameRef attribute of the <PartitionWindow> element that schedules Partition Part.

Additional properties can be set on the Partition Part's associated. See the related links below.
