Detailed Description

A C++ Interface to the SDS Arg library.

Arg provides simpler interfaces to constructing, putting and fetching data from simple SDS scaler or string items.

Note that if the macro DRAMA_ALLOW_CPP_STDLIB is defined, then it is presume that the C++ standard library is available and relevant methods (such as those which use std::string types) are compiled. Otherwise they are not defined.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Arg::Arg (  const SdsIdType    item = 0, const bool    free = false, const bool    del = false, const bool    readfree = false )  [inline]

Arg constructor to access an item created by C language SDS. This Arg constructor that takes an existing SDS id (C style) and creates an SdsId class object which referees to it. You must explictly specify if the item is to be freed and deleted when the object's destructor is invoked, and what you do depends on when what other code may do with item. del and readfree are mutually exclusive. Parameters: item  The SdsIdType of the item. If 0 (default), a SdsId object which does not refer to any SDS item is created. This is normally only used when we want an argument to pass (by pointer) to a function which will use ShallowCopy() or DeepCopy() to set the ID or if you wish to use the New() method to create a new method later. free  Invoke SdsFreeId() on the ID when the object is destroyed. Default is false. del  Invoke SdsDelete() on the ID when the object is destroyed. The default is false. readfree  Invoke SdsReadFree() on the ID when the object is destroyed. The default is false.

Arg::Arg (  bool    flag, StatusType *const    status, const char *const    name = "ArgStructure" )  [inline]

Arg constructor which creates a new SDS structure. This Arg contructor creates a new top level SDS item. The first argument is just used to make this constructors argument list unique in all cases. See also: ArgNew() Parameters: flag  Ignored, but used to distingish this constructor from other contructors. status  Inherited status. name  The name for the structure. The default is what is normally supplied by the ArgNew() function, but any name acceptable to SDS can be specified.

Arg::Arg (  const SdsId &    source, const char *const    name, StatusType *const    status )  [inline]

Constructor which returns an id to a named item of another item. This constructor searches an existing SDS item for a item with a specified name and creates a reference to it. See also: SdsFind() , ArgFind() Parameters: source  The SDS item to find name within. name  The name of the SDS item to find. status  Inherited status.

Arg::Arg (  const SdsId &    source, const std::string &    name, StatusType *const    status )  [inline]

Constructor which returns an id to a named item of another item. This constructor searches an existing SDS item for a item with a specified name and creates a reference to it. Remarks: Only available if the marcro DRAMA_ALLOW_CPP_STDLIB is defined. See also: SdsFind() , ArgFind() Parameters: source  The SDS item to find name within. name  The name of the SDS item to find. status  Inherited status.

Member Function Documentation

void Arg::CheckItem (  SdsCodeType    code, StatusType *    status, long    ndims = -1, long *    dims = 0 )  [inline]

Check an item has a required structure. A common requirement for the user of the SDS library is to check that a specified SDS item has the right format - type code, number of dimensions and dimensions. This utility function implements such a check. See also: ArgCheckItem() Parameters: code  SDS Code we expect. The normal SDS code values, or ARG_STRING, in which case we mean SDS_CHAR but the ndims value is bumped by 1 automatically. If specified as -1, then the code is ignored. status  Inherited status. ndims  The expected number of dimensions. 0 to SDS_C_MAXARRAYDIMS (7) or a maximum one less then this if code=ARG_STIRNG. If specified as -1, then don't check ndims. dims  The expected dimensions. Only used if ndims>0 or code=ARG_STRING. Only ndims values are used (or ndims+1 if code=ARG_STRING). If the value is negative or zero, the value is ignored, otherwise they must match. Note - long, not the unsigned long that SDS dimension arrays noramlly are. A null pointer can be supplied, which is equivalent of an array of -1 values.
