Selector
apama.analyticsbuilder.blocks.Selector
Outputs a parameter value depending on which input port has a true value, lowest number taking precedence.
You specify the output value that is to be sent using the parameters of this block. Only one of the parameter values is sent in the output. It is sent when the corresponding input port receives a true value. If more than one input port receives a true value, then the input port is used which has the lowest number in its name. For example, Input 1 has a higher priority than Input 2.
If all input values are false, then the value specified with the No Input parameter is sent.
Example: Input 1 has "high", Input 2 has "medium", Input 3 has "low", and the No Input parameter has the value "off". If none of the input ports receives a true value, then "off" is sent as the output value. If both the Input 2 and Input 3 ports receive a true value and Input 1 receives a false value, then "medium" is sent as the output value. This is because Input 2 has a higher priority than Input 3.
