readcae
Reads data from a given file. readcae uses the CAE readers provided with Compose and supports a large set of file formats.
Syntax
readcae(filename, datatype, request, component, time, outputType)
readcae(filename, subcase, datatype, request, component, time, outputType)
R = readcae(...)
Inputs
- filename
- Path of the file.
- subcase
- Subcase name or index in the file.
- datatype
- Type name or index in the file.
- request
- Request name or index, list of indices, list of names, or range of indices.
- component
- Component name or index, list of indices, list of names, or range of indices.
- time
- Time name or index, list of indices, list of names, or range of indices.
- outputType
- Determines the output type of the readcae command. Supported values
are 0 or 1.
- 0
- Cell
- 1
- Multi-dimensional matrix.
Outputs
- R
- If outputType is 0, then output is a cell.

Comments
When using readcae without the use of releasefileinfo in sequence, the subsequent executions of the script will load a version of the file that is already in the memory, not from the disk.
