This template class allows user types to be used in all Orocos primitives.
virtual base::DataSourceBase::shared_ptr decomposeType(base::DataSourceBase::shared_ptr source) const
A primitive type is decomposed into itself.

StdTypeInfo(const char *type)
Definition: StdTypeInfo.hpp:61
boost::intrusive_ptr< DataSourceBase > shared_ptr
Use this type to store a pointer to a DataSourceBase.
Contains TaskContext, Activity, OperationCaller, Operation, Property, InputPort, OutputPort, Attribute.
Definition: Activity.cpp:52
virtual bool composeType(base::DataSourceBase::shared_ptr source, base::DataSourceBase::shared_ptr result) const
Definition: StdTypeInfo.hpp:65
