Member Function Documentation

virtual String base::Object::className (    )  const [pure virtual, inherited]

return the name of the object's class type. Must be defined by derived classes. Implemented in base::Application.

void base::Referenced::enableOnUnreferenceCall (  bool    enabled )  [inline, inherited]

If enabled, each call to unreference() will also call virtual method onUnreference() Definition at line 108 of file Referenced. References base::Referenced::onUnreferenceEnabled. Referenced by robot::control::ControllableAdaptor::ControllableAdaptor.

virtual Matrix4 robot::Manipulator::getBaseTransform (    )  const [pure virtual]

the transformation from the base origin to the origin of the first joint(s). Implemented in robot::sim::SimulatedSerialManipulator.

virtual String robot::RobotPart::getName (    )  const [inline, virtual, inherited]

Definition at line 41 of file RobotPart. References robot::RobotPart::name, and base::String. Referenced by robot::SerialManipulator::serialize.

const Serializable::SerializableInstantiator & Serializable::getSerializableInstantiator (  const String &    baseClassTypeName, const String &    derivedClassTypeName )  [static, inherited]

Definition at line 52 of file Serializable.cpp. References Exception, and base::String.

template<class BaseClass> const SerializableInstantiator& base::Serializable::getSerializableInstantiator (  const String &    derivedClassTypeName )  [inline, static, inherited]

Definition at line 71 of file Serializable. References base::String.

virtual bool base::Object::isSameKindAs (  const Object &    )  const [inline, virtual, inherited]

Definition at line 47 of file Object.

virtual bool base::ReferencedObject::isSameKindAs (  const ReferencedObject &    )  const [inline, virtual, inherited]

Definition at line 58 of file ReferencedObject.

virtual void base::Referenced::onUnreference (    )  const [inline, virtual, inherited]

Called by unreference() if enabled via enableOnUnreferenceCall(true). Typically overridden in subclasses that wish to know about unreference() calls - for example to handle manually breaking cyclic references Reimplemented in robot::control::ControllableAdaptor::AdaptorControlInterface. Definition at line 114 of file Referenced. Referenced by base::Referenced::unreference.

void base::Referenced::reference (    )  const [inline, inherited]

Increment the reference count by one, indicating that this object has another pointer which is referencing it. Definition at line 58 of file Referenced. References base::Referenced::_refCount. Referenced by robot::control::kinematics::FullSpaceSolver::reduceA.

const int base::Referenced::referenceCount (    )  const [inline, inherited]

Return the number pointers currently referencing this object. Definition at line 105 of file Referenced. References base::Referenced::_refCount. Referenced by robot::control::ControllableAdaptor::onUnreference, and robot::control::ControllableAdaptor::AdaptorControlInterface::onUnreference.

void Serializable::registerSerializableInstantiator (  const String &    baseClassTypeName, const String &    derivedClassTypeName, const SerializableInstantiator &    instantiator )  [static, inherited]

Definition at line 33 of file Serializable.cpp. References Exception, and base::String.

template<class BaseClass, class DerivedClass> void base::Serializable::registerSerializableInstantiator (  const SerializableInstantiator &    instantiator )  [inline, static, inherited]

Definition at line 62 of file Serializable.

virtual void base::Serializable::serialize (  Serializer &    s )  [pure virtual, inherited]

read or write object state to Serializer. Implemented in base::BinaryOpExpression.

virtual Type robot::Manipulator::type (    )  const [pure virtual]

Implemented in robot::ParallelManipulator.

bool base::Referenced::unreference (    )  const [inline, inherited]

Decrement the reference count by one, indicating that a pointer to this object is referencing it. If the refence count goes to zero, it is assumed that this object is nolonger referenced and is automatically deleted. Definition at line 74 of file Referenced. References base::Referenced::_refCount, Exception, and base::Referenced::onUnreference.
