Detailed Description

template<class UserType, class UsedType>
class IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >

List of uses relations.

Template Parameters

UserType	Class that contains the relation.
UsedType	Class of the targets of the relation.

Library: server

Rogue Wave Server lets you declare use relations among object classes. Use relations are relations in which one particular object can be used by any number of other objects. The user object can also use one or more other objects. One-to-many relations can be defined as list-relations or as set-relations. Unlike set-relations, target objects in list-relations are listed in sequential order. Such relations are declared within the user class as instances of the class template IlsUsesList.

Member Typedef Documentation

§ Initial

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

typedef IlsSmartDoublyLinkedList<UsedTypeP, UsedTypeP, IlsBasicListKeyManager<UsedTypeP> > IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::Initial

This type provides a list of used objects when the relation is created.

This list must contain at least as many elements as specified for the minimal cardinality.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

§ IlsUsesList()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::IlsUsesList	(	UserType &	user,
		IlsRelationId	identifier = `IlsDefaultRelationId`,
		IlsActivity	activity = `IlsModel::GetDefaultActivity()`,
		IlsCardinality	mincard = `0`,
		IlsCardinality	maxcard = `ILS_UNLIMITED_MAXCARD`,
		Initial &	targets = `(*new Initial())`,
		IlsBoolean	check_card = `IlsTrue`
	)

Constructor.

Parameters

user	A reference to the user object.
identifier	A relation identifier of type `IlsRelationId`. This argument defaults to `IlsDefaultRelationId`. It is generally used to invert relations.
activity	specifies whether the relation is active or not. A relation is active if its modification sets off the recomputation of derived data members. The default value is the one returned by the function `IlsModel::GetDefaultActivity()`, which is `ILS_INACTIVE` by default.
mincard	The minimal cardinality of the list. This argument is optional and defaults to zero.
maxcard	The maximal cardinality, which can be an unsigned integer or indeterminate. This argument is optional and defaults to `ILS_UNLIMITED_MAXCARD`.
targets	a list of objects. Its default value, newInitial, creates an empty list.
check_card	specifies whether cardinalities should be checked at object construction.

Exceptions

IlsMinCardViolated	If the number of objects in targets is lower than the value assigned to mincard.
IlsMaxCardViolated	If the number of objects in targets is greater than the value of maxcard.

Member Function Documentation

§ clear()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

Myself& IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::clear ( )

Empties the list.

Exceptions

IlsMinCardViolated	If the minimal cardinality is different from zero. The number of items remaining in the list will be equal to the minimal cardinality specified.
IlsUpdateForbidden	If the function `isUpdateAllowed()` returns `IlsFalse` for the type in which the relation is declared.

§ cons()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

Myself& IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::cons ( CUsedTypePR )

Adds an object to the list.

Exceptions

IlsMaxCardViolated	If the maximal cardinality has been reached.
IlsUnownedUse	If the specified object is neither an owned object nor an entity, and if the member function IlsModel::IsIntegrityChecked returns `IlsTrue`.
IlsUpdateForbidden	if the member function `isUpdateAllowed` returns `IlsFalse` for the type in which the relation is declared.

§ getActivity()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

IlsActivity IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::getActivity ( ) const

Returns ILS_ACTIVE if the relation has been set as active. Otherwise, it returns ILS_INACTIVE.

For details, see the constructor.

§ getAdded()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

UsedType** IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::getAdded ( int & )

During a notification phase, this member function returns an array of pointers to the items that have been added to the list since the last notification phase.

It returns an empty array if no object has been added to the list-relation. The argument accepts the size of the array as a return value.

You must explicitly destroy this array when you no longer need it. To do so, use delete with square brackets [].

§ getFirst()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

CUsedTypePR IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::getFirst ( )

Returns the first item of the list.

Exceptions

IlsForbiddenOnEmptyList If the list is empty.

§ getIdentifiedElement()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

virtual IlsViewed* IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::getIdentifiedElement ( const IlsString & id ) const

virtual

This virtual member function is used to retrieve an identified object from the relation.

The member function IlsViewed::getKeyIdentifier() is used to retrieve the identifier of the relation element.

Note: On all subclasses of this class, the complexity of this method is always linear, in terms of the number of elements in the relation, even for set relations.

Reimplemented from IlsViewedRel.

§ getLast()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

CUsedTypePR IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::getLast ( )

Returns the last item of the list.

Exceptions

IlsForbiddenOnEmptyList If the list is empty.

§ getRemoved()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

UsedType** IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::getRemoved ( int & )

During a notification phase, this member function returns an array of pointers to the items that have been removed from the list since the last notification phase.

It returns an empty array if no object has been removed from the list-relation. The argument accepts the size of the array as a return value.

You must explicitly destroy this array when you no longer need it. To do so, use delete with square brackets [].

§ getUser()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

UserType& IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::getUser ( ) const

Returns a reference to the user object.

This function is useful especially in the case of derived relations.

§ operator<<()

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

Myself& IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::operator<< ( CUsedTypePR newe )

Adds an item to the list.

Exceptions

IlsMaxCardViolated	If the maximal cardinality has been reached.
IlsUnownedUse	If the specified object is neither an owned object nor an entity, and if the member function IlsModel::IsIntegrityChecked returns `IlsTrue`.
IlsUpdateForbidden	if the member function `isUpdateAllowed` returns `IlsFalse` for the type in which the relation is declared.

§ remove() [1/2]

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

Myself& IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::remove ( CUsedTypePR olde )

Removes an object from the list according to the specified cut instruction.

Exceptions

IlsUpdateForbidden	If the member function `isUpdatedAllowed()` returns `IlsFalse` for the type in which the relation is declared.
IlsMinCardViolated	If the minimal cardinality has been reached.
IlsNotFound	If the item to be removed does not belong to the list.

§ remove() [2/2]

template<class UserType, class UsedType>

Myself& IlsUsesList< UserType, UsedType >::remove	(	Partial &	,
		IlsBoolean	weak = `IlsFalse`
	)

Removes the argument Partial from the list.

Exceptions

IlsUpdateForbidden	If the member function `isUpdatedAllowed()` returns `IlsFalse` for the type in which the relation is declared.
IlsMinCardViolated	If the minimal cardinality has been reached.
IlsNotFound	If the item to be removed does not belong to the list.
