interface xdc.runtime.IInstance

Common instance params

Every module's instance parameter structure contains a pointer to an IInstance.Params structure named instance. So, every instance parameter defined in this interface may optionally be set when creating (or constructing) any module's instances.

DETAILS
It is possible to "bind" a name to each instance of any module at the time the instance is created (or constructed).
      ModA_Params params;
      ModA_Params_init(&params);
      params.instance->name = "myInstance";
      ModA_create(&params, NULL);
The name field must be assigned a pointer to a buffer that persists as long as the instance that it names exists. Only a reference to the name is retained in the instance, the name is not copied to a secondary buffer.
If instances have been configured to not support names, it is still possible to assign to the instance.name field of the parameter structure (as shown above). However, the pointer is not retained and methods that normally return an instance's name will return NULL instead.
