Require: IP-Symcon >= 4.0
int RegisterVariableBoolean (string $Ident, string $Name, string $Profile, int $Position)
Parameters
| Ident | Ident of the status variable |
| Name | Name of the status variable |
| Profile | Name of the profile to be used. |
| Position | Position in the object tree and thus also in the visualization. |
Returns
VariableID of the created status variable
Description
This function creates a status variable of the type Boolean with the Ident Ident and the name Name. It can also be specified which Profile is to be used and which Position the status variable should be on.
This function can also be called if the variable already exists. In this case only the profile is updated, given it is diverging. If the variable type is different, the variable will be deleted without confirmation and recreated with the correct variable type.
The VariableID can be determined via GetIDForIdent, therefore it does not have to be saved anywhere.
Example
$variableID = $this->RegisterVariableBoolean("Switch", "Living room light switch");
