Regional Categorical Map

Description

Registers a categorical map as the piece belonging to one region of a larger categorical map, under a name that Merge Regional Categorical Maps later reads to rebuild the whole map. This functor produces no output — it is used purely for the side effect of storing the map in the region manager.

Inputs

Name	Type	Description
Global Map Name	Name Type	Name under which the regional maps are kept by the region manager. Use the same name in the matching Merge Regional Categorical Maps.
Regional Map	Categorical Map Type	The categorical map for this region.

Optional Inputs

Name	Type	Description	Default Value
Region Id	Integer Value Type	Identifier of the region that Regional Map belongs to. When this functor is placed inside a For Each Region or Region container, this port connects to the current region automatically.	Provided automatically
Region Manager	Region Manager Type	The region manager to register the map with. When this functor is placed inside a Region Manager or Region container, this port connects to that container's region manager automatically.	Provided automatically

Outputs

None.

Group

Region

Notes

Region Id can be set to a fixed constant instead of being left to auto-bind, but doing so triggers a warning recommending that it be supplied by an enclosing loop's current iteration instead.

Registering a map under a Global Map Name that no Merge Regional Categorical Maps reads back is reported with a warning. Registering two maps under the same Global Map Name for the same region manager is also reported with a warning.

Placing this functor inside a For Each Region container has no effect, since the region manager that container exposes does not store regional maps. Use a Region Manager (or Region) instead.
