OEUpdateDesignUnit

Attention

This API is currently available in C++ and Python.

bool OEUpdateDesignUnit(OEDesignUnit &du,
                        const OEChem::OEMolBase &mol,
                        const unsigned componentId, const bool retainStyle=false)

This function updates an existing OEDesignUnit object du by setting the component given by componentId with the input molecule mol. The component ID should be specified from constants in the OEDesignUnitComponents namespace. The optional parameter retainStyle retains the style on the input molecule, otherwise undergoes standard OEDesignUnit object styling (default).

Warning

Updating the content of a design unit invalidates the OEReceptor object stored on the design unit and it will be removed as part of the update.
