Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class ImFusion::SubPropertyList< T >

The SubPropertyList class represents nested records of Configurable entities.

It is very similar to SubProperty, with the addition that you can store multiple Configurable entities for which it also offers functionality to conveniently access them. The SubPropertyList class provides functions like the index operator, for easy access of the nested elements:

struct InnerStruct : public Configurable {
    Parameter<int> p_count = {"count", 0, this};
}
struct OuterStruct : public Configurable {
    SubPropertyList<InnerStruct> p_innerStructList = {"InnerStructList", {InnerStruct()}, this};
}
 
OuterStruct o;
o.p_innerStructList[0].p_count = 42;

The nested objects are stored as multiple sub-properties inside the given Properties preserving the order and using the name of the SubPropertyList.

The signal signalValueChanged is only emitted whenever the nested objects are changed using setValue(), configure(), or if one of their Configurable::signalParametersChanged was emitted.

Note: In contrast to SubProperty, SubPropertyList currently only supports T being a regular value type implementing Configurable.

Template Parameters

T	Underlying type of the parameter, must be default-constructible, copyable and implement the Configurable interface.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SubPropertyList()

template<typename T>

SubPropertyList	(	const std::string &	name,
		const std::vector< T > &	init,
		Configurable *	parent = nullptr )

Creates a SubPropertyList that will be configured under the given name and with the given initial value.

If parent != nullptr creates a SubPropertyList that is directly registered to the parent Configurable instance. The parent instance is stored and thus must have a lifetime longer than this object.

Member Function Documentation

operator=() [1/3]

template<typename T>

SubPropertyList< T > & operator=

(

const SubPropertyList< T > &

other

)

Assigns the value and attributes from another SubPropertyList instance of the same type and emits signalValueChanged.

Expects name and deprecated names to be the same and will not change the parent relationship.

operator=() [2/3]

template<typename T>

SubPropertyList< T > & operator=

(

SubPropertyList< T > &

other

)

Assigns the value and attributes from another SubPropertyList instance of the same type and emits signalValueChanged.

Expects name and deprecated names to be the same and will not change the parent relationship.

Note

This implementation is required as otherwise operator=(SubPropertyList<T>&&) will be picked up as non-const assign operator.

operator=() [3/3]

template<typename T>

SubPropertyList< T > & operator= ( SubPropertyList< T > && other )

noexcept

Assigns the value and attributes from another SubPropertyList instance of the same type and emits signalValueChanged.

Expects name and deprecated names to be the same and will not change the parent relationship.

configure()

template<typename T>

void configure ( const Properties * p )

overridevirtual

Configure this parameter/sub property by de-serializing the given Properties.

The behavior of configure() is as follows:

• Configure will clear and resize the payload to the number of present sub-properties in p, i.e. delete all elements of the payload and append default-constructed T if there are sub-properties present in p. Therefore, T must be default-constructible.
• Subsequently, the elements in the payload will get configured by calling their configure() method in order with the sub-properties in p. Thus, the order of the sub-properties is preserved.

Implements ParameterBase.

configuration()

template<typename T>

void configuration ( Properties * p ) const

overridevirtual

Serialize the current parameter/sub property state into the given Properties object.

Implements ParameterBase.
