Detailed description
This sets the internal value of a property, and compliments GetValue.
Note this call does not set the value the property will evaluate to, but sets the value that will be evaluated.
For example, a port connection property may be set to the string "$PORTA", but this call can not be used to change the value of a port.
When code is generated the value of the property becomes fixed for the generated code corresponding to the last call to SetValue().
Examples
