Detailed Description

template<class TargetType, class OriginType, class Comparator>
class IlsSortedInvertedRelationList< TargetType, OriginType, Comparator >

Sorted inverted relation list.

Template Parameters

TargetType	Target class of the direct relation.
OriginType	Class that contains the direct relation.
Comparator	Comparison class.

Library: server

Relations of type IlsSortedInvertedRelationList are similar to relations of type IlsInvertedRelationList. The only difference is that sorted list-relations are associated with a sort criterion that is used to automatically determine where a new object will be placed in a list.

The TargetType and the OriginType must derive publicly and directly or transitively from IlsEntity or IlsObject. Derivation must be public.

The Comparator class contains only one static function with the following signature:

static IlsBoolean Compare(OriginType&, OriginType&);

New objects will be added to a list at the position specified by the function Compare().

If the function Comparator::Compare(O1, O2); returns IlsTrue, O1 is considered greater than O2 and thus placed after O2 in the list. If this function returns IlsFalse, then O1 is considered lower than O2 and thus inserted before O2 in the list.

A list is sorted in the ascending order defined by the Compare() function. To invert the sort order defined by a given Compare() function, you have to change the return value into the opposite value.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

IlsSortedInvertedRelationList()

template<class TargetType , class OriginType , class Comparator >

IlsSortedInvertedRelationList< TargetType, OriginType, Comparator >::IlsSortedInvertedRelationList	(	TargetType &	target,
		IlsActivity	activity = IlsModel::GetDefaultActivity(),
		IlsCardinality	mincard = 0,
		IlsCardinality	maxcard = ILS_UNLIMITED_MAXCARD,
		Initial &	targets = (*new Initial()),
		IlsBoolean	check_card = IlsTrue
	)

Constructor.

Parameters

target	A reference to the target object.
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 of the list. This argument is optional and defaults to ILS_UNLIMITED_MAXCARD.
targets	A list of objects. It creates an empty list when set to its default value.
check_card	Specifies whether cardinalities should be checked at construction.
