Model-to-Model Mappings

To start mapping your model with Virtual Bench, you must have imported your types and flows, according to the method described in the related page.

WHAT IS IT?​

Create a model-to-model mapping means setting up an information transfered between two executables, through the Virtual-Bench.

In the project tab, all model-to-model mappings are stored in the "model-to-model mappings" folder.

MODEL-TO-MODEL MAPPING​

Creation​

  • You can add new model to model mappings by clicking on the “Create model-to-model mapping” button:
Add button

Now, you have to create the contract between the two flows, as following:

Contract between 2 flows

Edition​

After choosing the flows, you must match the different parameters

Remove​

You can delete model-to-model mappings using the same method as other mapping types:

  • one by one
  • unused mappings

MODEL-TO-MODEL MAPPING INSTANCES​

Creation​

  • In the specific scenario tab, you can add new websockets by clicking on the “Create model-to-model mapping instances” button Add button

Virtual-Bench allows you to choose model-to-model mappings, according to scenario's websockets:

Choose inter-executable mapping

Click on "Ok" when you are ready, then you can add conditions on this mapping association, by clicking on "Edit condition":

Edit conditions

Click on "Save" to create the instance, that will be listed in the specific scenario tab:

Model to model mapping instances list

From there, you can:

  • See your mapping in the mapping list of the "Scenarios" tab
  • Copy your mapping in other scenarios
  • Duplicate it
  • Edit the mapping instance (duration, delay and conditions)
  • Delete the mapping instance from the context element
  • See description of the model to model mapping instance

Copy in multiple scenario​

When you created an instance of mapping and you want to do the same thing for other scenarios, you can click on the "Copy in multiple scenario" button:

A "Copy the instance of one model to model mapping" window will open, listing the scenarios with the same executable.
You can research specific terms by tapping in the "Filter" field:

Copy the instance of one model to model mapping

Duplicate​

It is easy to duplicate a model-to-model mapping by using the "Clone" button in the Scenario tab.

Delete model-to-model mappings

Remove​

If you want to delete the model-to-model mapping instances (in your scenario) you can click on the cross next to the instances menu and select the ones you want to delete.
