name is a density mechanism such as hh
or a point process
such as VClamp
. A MechanismStandard
instance, when created,
contains default values for all parameters associated with the mechanism.
In combination with the MechanismType class it is possible to create generic graphical interface widgets that are independent of the particular mechanism and parameter names.
objref ms1, ms2 ms1 = new MechanismStandard("hh") ms2 = new MechanismStandard("AlphaSynapse") ms2.set("gmax", .3) ms1.panel() ms2.panel()
MechanismStandard
ms.panel()
ms.panel("string")
With no argument the first item in the panel will be the name of the mechanism. Otherwise the string is used as the first item label.

MechanismStandard
cnt = ms.count()
MechanismStandard
ms.name(strdef)
size = ms.name(strdef, i)
When the i parameter is present (i ranges from 0 to ms.count()-1) the strdef parameter gets assigned the ith name of the mechanism represented by the MechanismStandard. In addition the return value is the array size of that parameter (1 for a scalar).
