Detailed Description

Group node handling a subgroup.

Library: ilvproto

IlvSubGroupNode is a subclass of IlvGroupNode used to include subgroups in groups in order to create hierarchies of objects. A subgroup node will often contain an IlvProtoInstance object (to build a prototype containing an instance of another prototype, for example) but it can also contain an IlvGroup object that groups a set of objects in a prototype so that they can be modified simultaneously.

See also: IlvGroup.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

§ IlvSubGroupNode()

IlvSubGroupNode::IlvSubGroupNode	(	IlvGroup *	subGroup,
		const char *	name = `0`,
		IlBoolean	owner = `IlTrue`
	)

Creates a new subgroup node containing the group subGroup.

Parameters

subGroup	The subgroup that will be inserted in the group this group node belongs to.
name	If non-null, the string is copied and stored as the node name. Otherwise, the name of the subgroup is used.
owner	If set to `IlTrue`, the subgroup will be deleted when the node is deleted (or when the group containing the node is deleted).

Member Function Documentation

§ changeValue()

virtual IlBoolean IlvSubGroupNode::changeValue ( const IlvValue & v )

virtual

Changes the object's value. Both the name and the new value are contained in val.

Parameters

v	The value to be set (both name and value).

Returns: Whether the object considered the operation successful or not.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ changeValues()

virtual IlBoolean IlvSubGroupNode::changeValues	(	const IlvValue *	v,
		IlUShort	c
	)

virtual

Changes several values of an object in a single call. The default implementation calls changeValue() for all values.

Parameters

v	The changed values (both name and values).
c	The number of values.

Returns: Whether the object considered the operation successful or not.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ compareValues()

virtual IlUInt IlvSubGroupNode::compareValues	(	const IlvAccessible *	ref,
		IlvValue *	values,
		IlUShort	count,
		IlvValueArray &	diffs
	)		const

virtual

Compares two objects and returns the differing attributes.

Compares the values of accessors known by this object with the corresponding values in the object ref. The values that differ are stored in diffs. The values stored are taken from the calling object (this), not from ref. The first method calls the getAccessors() method to get the list of all known accessors, while the second only compares the provided values. Then, both methods call compareValues() to actually compare the values.

Returns: The number of differing attributes.

Parameters

ref	The object to compare to.
values	The attributes to compare in both objects.
count	The number of attributes to compare.
diffs	The differing attributes.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ copy()

virtual IlvGroupNode* IlvSubGroupNode::copy ( ) const

virtual

Returns a copy of the group node.

Should be implemented by subclasses. Whether the data they hold is shared is left to the implementation.

Returns: A copy of the group node.

Implements IlvGroupNode.

§ getAccessors()

virtual void IlvSubGroupNode::getAccessors	(	const IlSymbol const *	a,
		const IlvValueTypeClass const *	t,
		IlUInt &	c
	)		const

virtual

Returns the names of all the accessors known by this object.

Subclasses of IlvAccessible must override this method by calling the static method DeclareAccessor() for each accessor handled by the subclass. The returned arrays are filled by the method and must not be freed.

Parameters

a	Pointer to an array filled on return with the names of the accessors defined for the object.
t	Pointer to an array filled on return with the type of each accessor.
c	Number of accessors, set by the method.

Implements IlvAccessible.

§ getName()

virtual const char* IlvSubGroupNode::getName ( ) const

virtual

Returns the name of the group node.

If a name was explicitly specified when the node was created, or if the setName method was called, this name is returned. Otherwise, a subclass-dependent method is used to find a default node name.

Returns: Name of the group node.

Reimplemented from IlvGroupNode.

§ getSubGroup()

virtual IlvGroup* IlvSubGroupNode::getSubGroup ( ) const

virtual

Returns the subgroup associated with this node.

Returns: The subgroup associated with this node or 0 if there is none.

Reimplemented from IlvGroupNode.

§ isOutputValue()

virtual IlBoolean IlvSubGroupNode::isOutputValue ( const IlSymbol * value ) const

virtual

Indicates whether value designates an accessor that can generate notifying values.

Returns: IlTrue if value designates an accessor that can generate notifying values, that is, a value for which pushValue() calls may be issued. The default implementation returns IlFalse. Subclasses such as IlvAccessorHolder redefine this method.

Parameters

value Name of the accessor.

See also: pushValue().

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ queryValue()

virtual IlvValue& IlvSubGroupNode::queryValue ( IlvValue & value ) const

virtual

Queries the value designated by value from the object. Both the value and the value type are stored in value.

Parameters

value The queried value name.

Returns: The value passed in argument, set to the object value.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ queryValues()

virtual void IlvSubGroupNode::queryValues	(	IlvValue *	v,
		IlUShort	c
	)		const

virtual

Queries several values in a single call. The default implementation calls queryValue() for each value.

Parameters

v	The array of value names to be queried
c	The number of values to be queried.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ subscribe()

virtual void IlvSubGroupNode::subscribe	(	IlvAccessible *	subscriber,
		IlSymbol *	sourceValue,
		IlSymbol *	subscriberValue,
		IlvValueTypeClass *	type,
		IlvValueSubscriptionMode	mode = `IlvValueSubscriptionChange`
	)

virtual

Subscribes the subscriber object to the value sourceValue of this object.

After this subscription, every call to this object pushValue() method with a value name of sourceValue will cause the subscriber changeValue() method to be called with the value name subscriberValue, and with the value data passed to the initial pushValue() call of the value source. The type parameter specifies the type of the sourceValue and subscriberValue values. An IlvAccessible object can subscribe several times to another IlvAccessible object for different source values and/or subscriber values, but it may not subscribe several times to the same object and subscriber values. The mode argument specifies whether the subscriber wants to be notified of value changes (this is the default mode IlvValueSubscriptionChange), or if it wants to be notified of value queries (mode IlvValueSubscriptionQuery). In this last case, the source object notifies its subscribers of calls to pullValue() instead of pushValue() by calling queryValue() instead of changeValue().

Parameters

subscriber	The object to be notified of accesses to sourceValue.
sourceValue	The name of the attribute to be observed by the subscription.
subscriberValue	The name of the attribute to be notified in the subscriber.
type	The expected value type to be pushed to the subscriber.
mode	The type of access to sourceValue to be reported to subscriber.

See also: IlvValueSubscriptionMode

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ unSubscribe()

virtual void IlvSubGroupNode::unSubscribe	(	IlvAccessible *	subscriber,
		IlSymbol *	sourceValue = `0`,
		IlSymbol *	subscriberValue = `0`
	)

virtual

Cancels subscriptions previously made.

Cancels the subscription of the subscriber object to the specified sourceValue and subscriberValue. If sourceValue is 0, the subscriptions of subscriber to all source values are cancelled. If subscriberValue is 0, the subscriptions of subscriber for all subscriber values are removed. If both are 0, all subscriptions of subscriber to this source object are cancelled.

Parameters

subscriber	The object that is to be notified of accesses to sourceValue.
sourceValue	The name of the attribute to be observed by the subscription.
subscriberValue	The name of the attribute to be notified in the subscriber.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ write()

virtual void IlvSubGroupNode::write ( IlvGroupOutputFile & f ) const

virtual

Writes the group node to an IlvGroupOutputFile.

Must be overridden by subclasses to save specific information.

Parameters

f	Group output file holding reference information on the group being read.

Reimplemented from IlvGroupNode.
