IAgDataProviderCollection Interface

Description

Represents a collection of data providers.

Public Methods

Public Method GetDataPrvFixedFromPathReturns the fixed data provider specified by the data provider path.
Public Method GetDataPrvInfoFromPathReturns the data provider information specified by the data provider path.
Public Method GetDataPrvIntervalFromPathReturns the interval data provider specified by the data provider path.
Public Method GetDataPrvTimeVarFromPathReturns the time variable data provider specified by the data provider path.
Public Method GetItemByIndexRetrieves a data provider from the collection by index.
Public Method GetItemByNameRetrieves a data provider from the collection by name.
Public Method GetSchemaReturns a string containing the XML representation of the available data providers.

Public Properties

Public Property CountReturns number of elements in the collection.
Public Property ItemGiven an index, returns the element in the collection. If the index is an integer, then method returns the element in the collection at the given position. If the index is a string, then the method returns the element with the specified name.

Example

Using an interval Data Provider
[Python - STK API]
# IAgStkObjectRoot root: STK Object Model root
# IAgSatellite satellite: Satellite object
# IAgFacility facility: Facility object

# Change DateFormat dimension to epoch seconds to make the data easier to handle in
# Python
root.UnitPreferences.Item('DateFormat').SetCurrentUnit('EpSec')
# Get the current scenario
scenario = root.CurrentScenario
# Set up the access object
access = satellite.GetAccessToObject(facility)
access.ComputeAccess()
# Get the Access AER Data Provider
accessDP = access.DataProviders.Item('Access Data').Exec(scenario.StartTime, scenario.StopTime)
