Component Function Call
Overview
Initialise a call to a component function
The Function Call block can be added to any process list, where it will run the function but do nothing with the returned values. If you want to use the returned values you can add the block in any slot where the value type of the returned value matches the slot type.
If the Function Call returns one output parameter only, that output parameter will determine the return value type of the Function Call. For example if the Function Call returns a number it can be added in the From slot of a Set number block. If the Function Call returns more than one output parameter, then the output parameters will get combined into a Data Structure and the return value type of the Function Call will be Data Structure.
