imagerpositiontest.make_ms - Function

	Package	synthesis
	Module	synthesistester
	Tool	imagerpositiontest

Make the MS containing the simulated data

Synopsis
make_ms(clfile, docorrupt, noiselevel)

Description
Make the MS containing the simulated data. It is usually a good idea just to let dotests() call this function.

Arguments

clfile		The name of the coponentlist disk table to use for generating the MS
		Allowed:	String (a valid componentlist table name)
		Default:	unset (will use the tool's default or that specified by the user in set_componentlisttable())
docorrupt		Should noise be added to the MS data?
		Allowed:	Boolean
		Default:	F
noiselevel		If docorrupt==T, the level of the noise that is passed to simulator.corrupt()
		Allowed:	String (a valid flux density quantity)
		Default:	F

Returns
T or fail

Example

- include 'imagerpositiontest.g';
- ipt := imagerpositiontest();
- ipt.make_default_simulator();
- ipt.make_default_cl();
# make the ms and corrupt with a noise level of 1 Jy
- ipt.make_ms('imager_position_test/simu_comp.cl',T,'1Jy');
T
