Get Link Attribute Value

This example shows how to get the attribute value of a specified custom attribute for a link.

Load the crs_req requirement files, which contain links for a cruise control system. Find the link set.

slreq.load('crs_req');
ls = slreq.find('Type','LinkSet');

Create a links array containing all the links from link set ls. Get one link from the array. Get the attribute value of the custom attribute called Target Speed Change, which tracks whether linked requirements are related to incrementing or decrementing the speed.

linksArray = find(ls);
myLink = linksArray(7);
val = getAttribute(myLink,'Target Speed Change')

val = 
'Decrement'
