Detailed Description

Grapher interactor to create links defined by several points.

Library: ilvgrapher

This is an interactor abstract class. You need to subtype this class to create the links. In particular, the IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::makeLink() method should be redefined to create links of the appropriate type.

See also: IlvPolylineLinkImage.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

§ IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor()

IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor	(	IlvManager *	manager,
		IlvView *	view,
		IlBoolean	oriented = `IlFalse`
	)

Constructor.

The constructor initializes a new instance of the IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor class for the view view and the grapher manager.

The manager parameter is assumed to be of type IlvGrapher. The oriented parameter is used to create the link in the IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::makeLink() method.

Parameters

manager	The grapher to which the interactor is attached.
view	The view to which the interactor is attached.
oriented	`IlTrue` if created links are oriented and `IlFalse` otherwise.

Member Function Documentation

§ accept()

virtual IlBoolean IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::accept ( IlvPoint & point )

virtual

Checks if a point is valid.

If the point point is the first of the link, it is accepted only if there is a node containing this point. In this case, the node is registered as the starting node of the link that will be created by the IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::makeLink() method.

This method can be overloaded to add specific constraints on the starting node or on the intermediate points that will define the link.

Parameters

point The point to validate, in manager coordinates.

Returns: IlTrue if the point that the user provides is acceptable. Otherwise, it returns IlFalse.

See also: getStartNode().

Reimplemented from IlvMakePolyPointsInteractor.

§ acceptEnd()

virtual IlBoolean IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::acceptEnd	(	IlUInt	count,
		IlvPoint *	allPoints
	)

virtual

Validates the link creation.

Called by the member function IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::doIt() before creating the link. If this method returns IlTrue, the doIt() method proceeds. Otherwise, it is aborted and no link is created. The default implementation returns IlTrue.

Parameters

count	The number of points specified by the user.
allPoints	The points specified by the user.

§ doIt()

virtual void IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::doIt	(	IlUInt	count,
		IlvPoint *	allPoints
	)

virtual

Creates and adds a new link to the grapher.

Called when the user ends the interaction (usually through a double-click). The allPoints array gives all the points drawn by the user. The default implementation first calls the IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::makeLink() method with the intermediate points of the link (that is, all the points of allPoints except the first and the last). It then calls IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::storeLink() with the created instance to add it to the grapher.

Parameters

count	The number of points specified by the user.
allPoints	The points specified by the user.

Implements IlvMakePolyPointsInteractor.

§ getEndNode()

IlvGraphic* IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::getEndNode ( ) const

Returns the ending node.

The ending node is registered by the IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::react member function each time the mouse passes over a new node.

Returns: The ending node.

§ getGrapher()

IlvGrapher* IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::getGrapher ( ) const

Returns the grapher to which the interactor is attached.

Returns: The grapher to which the interactor is attached.

§ getStartNode()

IlvGraphic* IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::getStartNode ( ) const

Returns the starting node.

The starting node is stored by the IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::accept() member function when the first mouse click occurs.

Returns: The starting node.

§ isOriented()

IlBoolean IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::isOriented ( ) const

Indicates whether created links are oriented.

Returns: IlTrue if created links are oriented and IlFalse otherwise.

§ makeLink()

virtual IlvLinkImage* IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::makeLink	(	IlUInt	count,
		IlvPoint *	points
	)

protectedpure virtual

Factory method to create the new link instance.

The points array specifies the intermediate points of the link (that is, the two endpoints of the link are not given in this array).
This method must be redefined to create the appropriate link instance. The link is created using the information given by the IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::getStartNode(), IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::getEndNode(), and IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::isOriented() methods.

Parameters

count	The number of intermediate points defining the link.
points	The intermediate points defining the link.

See also: getStartNode(), getEndNode(), isOriented().

Implemented in IlvMakePolylineLinkInteractor.

§ react()

virtual void IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::react	(	IlvPoint &	point,
		IlUShort	modifiers = `0`
	)

virtual

Highlights the nodes under a given point.

Highlights (by selecting and deselecting) the nodes over which the mouse passes. The last selected node is registered as the ending node of the link. If the node uses connection pins, these are highlighted and the closest pin to point point is stored.

Parameters

point	The point in manager coordinates.
modifiers	The modifier keys that were active when the user created the current point.

See also: IlvGrapherPin, IlvGrapherPin::getClosest(), getEndNode().

Reimplemented from IlvMakePolyPointsInteractor.

§ setEndNode()

void IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::setEndNode ( IlvGraphic * end )

Sets the ending node.

Parameters

end	The new ending node.

§ setStartNode()

void IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::setStartNode ( IlvGraphic * start )

Sets the starting node.

Parameters

start The new starting node.

§ storeLink()

virtual void IlvMakePolyLinkInteractor::storeLink ( IlvLinkImage * link )

protectedvirtual

Adds the new link instance to the grapher.

If connection pins were registered during the interaction, this method connects them to link before it is added to the grapher.

Parameters

link	The new link.

See also: IlvGrapherPin, IlvGrapherPin::setPinIndex().
