[gme-users] How to get the value of a certain attribute

[Zoltan Molnar]

Wrong, 
i have to correct myself: since the attribute name is part of the meta
information, you have to access it by the 
const MON::Attribute& AttributeImpl::getAttributeMeta() const; 
method.
 
The Mon::Attribute returned has methods like:
   std::string  name() const;
   std::string  displayedName() const;

Hi,
Indeed the Attribute class right now doesn't have a getName method (future
improvement), but you can inquire its the name using the com interface given
by: AttributeImpl::getAttributeI()
like:
 
std::string getAttributeName( Attribute * myattribute )
{
  CComBSTR bstrName;
  COMTHROW( myattribute->getAttributeI()->get_Name( &bstrName ) );
  return Util::Copy( bstrName );
}

I'm using BON2 that comes with GME 4.3.17. I can get the whole set of
attributes with Model->getAttributes. When I tried to iterate through the
set, I couldn't find the api to get an attribute's name. Is there something
similar to attribute->getname()?

Thx
