Usage
Design
Messages are a property of Component Interfaces and Connections in Project Design mode. For more information see Design > Interface.
Build
Tangram-generated CSI (Component Software Interfaces) and Transform applications include getter and setter methods for each of the Messages chosen in a Project Design. Tangram Pro also provides Serializers that are compatible with the chosen Message Set.
Cameo Sync
When using the Tangram Pro Sync Plugin for Cameo, the Message Set definitions are synchronized from Tangram Pro into Cameo.
FlexLang
The Message Set specifications are defined in the Flex Language. Tangram Pro includes a code editor which allows you to fork and modify specifications as needed.
