These functions help with defining various Matchcode properties.

GetDescription

This function retrieves a matchcode’s user-specified description associated with this matchcode.

Syntax StringValue =mdMC->GetDescription()
C StringValue = mdMUMatchcodeGetDescription(mdMUMatchcode)
.Net StringValue = mdMC.GetDescription


SetDescription

This function allows you to assign a description to the matchcode.

For example, it may describe what the matchcode evaluates or the type of process the matchcode is used in. When viewing the matchcode in the matchcode editor, the description will be present along with the actual properties of the matchcode.

Syntax mdMC->SetDescription(StringValue)
C mdMUMatchcodeSetDescription(mdMUMatchcode, StringValue)
.Net mdMC.SetDescription = StringValue


GetNGram

This function retrieves a matchcode’s N-gram setting.

Since a matchcode may contain multiple components each using a different fuzzy algorithm, many of which require an N-gram setting, the N-gram setting is applied to all relevant components. In other words, the N-gram is set at the matchcode level, not the component level.

Syntax integer = mdMC->GetNGram()
C integer = mdMUMatchcodeGetNGram(mdMUMatchcode)
.Net integer = mdMC.GetNGram


SetNGram

Sets a matchcode’s N-gram setting.

Since a matchcode may contain multiple components each using a different fuzzy algorithm, many of which require an N-gram setting, the N-gram setting is applied to all relevant components. In other words, the N-gram is set at the matchcode level, not the component level.

Syntax mdMC->SetNGram(integer)
C mdMUMatchcodeSetNGram(mdMUMatchcode, integer)
.Net mdMC.SetNGram = integer
