function TrySetValue#

virtual bool TrySetValue(
    double value
) =0

Sets the value of the parameter if the parameter is writable.

Parameters:

• value The value to set.

Return: Returns false if the parameter is not writable.

Precondition:

• The passed value must be >= GenApi::IFloat::GetMin().
• The passed value must be <= GenApi::IFloat::GetMax().

Thread Safety:

The method accesses the parameter multiple times. These accesses are not synchronized by a lock.

Error Safety:

Can throw exceptions if the preconditions are not met or if writing the value fails.

Reimplemented by: Pylon::CFloatParameter::TrySetValue

The value must be in the valid range and the increment must be correct. If the float parameter has an increment, the increment is automatically corrected.

) =0

Gets the value of the parameter if the parameter is readable.

Parameters:

• defaultValue The default value returned if the parameter is not readable.

Return: Returns the parameter value if the parameter is readable. Otherwise returns the default value.

Thread Safety:

The method accesses the parameter multiple times. These accesses are not synchronized by a lock.

Error Safety:

Can throw exception if reading the value fails.

Reimplemented by: Pylon::CFloatParameter::GetValueOrDefault

Otherwise returns the default value.
