Detailed Description

template<typename function>
class RTT::NArityDataSource< function >

A generic N-arity composite DataSource.

It collects data sources of the same type and passes the values found on to function by means of a std::vector.

Parameters:

function

Is a struct which defines value_t operator()(const std::vector<arg_t>&), where value_t is defined as function::result_type and arg_t is defined as function::argument_type.

Definition at line 596 of file DataSources.hpp.

Member Function Documentation

template<typename function>

virtual NArityDataSource<function>* RTT::NArityDataSource< function >::clone ( ) const [inline, virtual]

Return a shallow clone of this DataSource.

This method returns a duplicate of this instance which re-uses the DataSources this DataSource holds reference to. The clone() function is thus a non-deep copy.

Implements RTT::DataSource< function::result_type >.

Definition at line 652 of file DataSources.hpp.

bool RTT::DataSourceBase::composeType ( DataSourceBase::shared_ptr source ) [inherited]

Compose the contents of this object from another datasource.

See also:: TypeInfo

template<typename function>

virtual NArityDataSource<function>* RTT::NArityDataSource< function >::copy ( std::map< const DataSourceBase *, DataSourceBase * > & alreadyCloned ) const [inline, virtual]

Create a deep copy of this DataSource, unless it is already cloned.

Places the association (parent, clone) in alreadyCloned. If the DataSource is non-copyable (for example it represents the Property of a Task ), this may be returned.

Implements RTT::DataSource< function::result_type >.

Definition at line 657 of file DataSources.hpp.

virtual void* RTT::DataSourceBase::createBlob ( int protocol ) [virtual, inherited]

Creates a transportable data object with the current value of this DataSource.

This does not trigger the evaluation() of this data source.

Returns:: a valid object or nill if this type is not supported.

Reimplemented in RTT::Corba::ExpressionProxy.

Referenced by RTT::Corba::CorbaDataObjectProxy< T >::Set().

bool RTT::DataSourceBase::decomposeType ( PropertyBag & targetbag ) [inherited]

Decompose the contents of this object into properties.

See also:: TypeInfo

virtual bool RTT::DataSource< function::result_type >::evaluate ( ) const [virtual, inherited]

Force an evaluation of the DataSourceBase.

Returns:: true on successful evaluation. If the DataSource itself contains a boolean, return that boolean.

Implements RTT::DataSourceBase.

virtual void* RTT::DataSourceBase::getBlob ( int protocol ) [virtual, inherited]

Creates a transportable data object with the current value of this DataSource.

This does trigger the evaluation() of this data source. Equivalent to this->evaluate(); this->createBlob();

Returns:: a valid object or nill if this type is not supported.

Reimplemented in RTT::Corba::ExpressionProxy.

virtual void* RTT::DataSourceBase::method	(	int	protocol,
		MethodC *	orig,
		void *	arg
	)			`[virtual, inherited]`

Create an object server which 'mirrors' this DataSource.

Returns:: The existing server if serverProtocol() == protocol, or a new method object reference otherwise.

See also:: Operations.idl

Reimplemented in RTT::Corba::ExpressionProxy.

virtual void* RTT::DataSourceBase::server	(	int	protocol,
		void *	arg
	)			`[virtual, inherited]`

Create an object server which 'mirrors' this DataSource.

Returns:: The existing server if serverProtocol() == protocol, or a new server object reference otherwise.

See also:: Operations.idl

virtual int RTT::DataSourceBase::serverProtocol ( ) const [virtual, inherited]

Inspect if this DataSource is a proxy for a remote server object.

Returns:: 0 if it is a local DataSource, or the protocol id if it is a proxy for a remove server.

Reimplemented in RTT::Corba::AnyDataSource, RTT::Corba::CORBAExpression< T >, RTT::Corba::CORBAExpression< void >, RTT::Corba::CORBAAssignableExpression< T >, and RTT::Corba::ExpressionProxy.

Referenced by RTT::AssignableDataSource< T >::narrow(), and RTT::DataSource< T >::narrow().

std::string RTT::DataSourceBase::toString ( ) [inherited]

Get the contents of this object as a string.

See also:: TypeInfo

virtual bool RTT::DataSourceBase::update ( DataSourceBase * other ) [virtual, inherited]

Update the value of this DataSource with the value of an other DataSource.

Update does a full update of the value, adding extra information if necessary.

Returns:: false if the DataSources are of different type OR if the contents of this DataSource can not be updated.

virtual bool RTT::DataSourceBase::updateBlob	(	int	protocol,
		const void *	data
	)			`[virtual, inherited]`

Updates the value of this DataSource with the value of a transportable data object.

Parameters:

any

The value to update to.

Returns:: true if any had the correct type.

virtual CommandInterface* RTT::DataSourceBase::updateCommand ( DataSourceBase * other ) [virtual, inherited]

Generate a CommandInterface object which will update this DataSource with the value of another DataSource when execute()'ed.

Returns:: zero if the DataSource types do not match OR if the contents of this DataSource can not be updated.

virtual bool RTT::DataSourceBase::updatePart	(	DataSourceBase *	part,
		DataSourceBase *	other
	)			`[virtual, inherited]`

Update part of the value of this DataSource with the value of an other DataSource.

Update does a partial update of the value, according to part, which is most likely an index or hash value of some type.

Returns:: false if the DataSources are of different type OR if the contents of this DataSource can not be partially updated.

Reimplemented in RTT::detail::AssignableDataSourceAdaptor< To const &, To >.

Referenced by RTT::detail::AssignableDataSourceAdaptor< To const &, To >::updatePart().

virtual CommandInterface* RTT::DataSourceBase::updatePartCommand	(	DataSourceBase *	part,
		DataSourceBase *	other
	)			`[virtual, inherited]`

Generate a CommandInterface object which will partially update this DataSource with the value of another DataSource when execute()'ed.

part is an index or hash value of some type.

Returns:: zero if the DataSource types do not match OR if the contents of this DataSource can not be partially updated.

Reimplemented in RTT::Corba::CORBAAssignableExpression< T >, RTT::detail::AssignableDataSourceAdaptor< To const &, To >, and RTT::IndexedValueDataSource< T, Index, SetType, IPred, APred >.

Referenced by RTT::detail::AssignableDataSourceAdaptor< To const &, To >::updatePartCommand().

std::ostream& RTT::DataSourceBase::write ( std::ostream & os ) [inherited]

Stream the contents of this object.

Member Data Documentation

OS::AtomicInt RTT::DataSourceBase::refcount [mutable, protected, inherited]

We keep the refcount ourselves.

We aren't using boost::shared_ptr, because boost::intrusive_ptr is better, exactly because it can be used with refcounts that are stored in the class itself. Advantages are that the shared_ptr's for derived classes use the same refcount, which is of course very much desired, and that refcounting happens in an efficient way, which is also nice :)
