Dynamically giving processors reference to list during runtime

cpatr007 — Wed, 01 Jul 2026 11:58:46 GMT

I am currently creating a model that creates processors during runtime then attempts to use them to process objects. However, the issue I am currently facing is that I can help the processors out by giving them a reference to the corresponding list, however, I cannot give the list a request to any of the dynamically created processors.

In order to get the processors to work you need to compile the receivefromport code after you assign it to the node and then run the code once to 'kickstart' the internal logic of the processor.

If your goal is to choose a specific processor for each item in Process Flow than I don't the point in using the Pull behaviour. You could just put the created processors on a list, pull one for each item and then just move the item into the processor directly.

I appreciate the comment, however, the following post already gave me the needed information to solve my issue:
