EventRouter::EventMapper Class Reference

#include <EventRouter.h>

List of all members.


Detailed Description

Does the actual storage of the mapping between EventBase's and the EventListeners/EventTrappers who should receive them.

Actually only stores void*'s, so it's more general than just Listeners or Trappers

 EventMapper ()
 constructor
void addMapping (void *el, EventBase::EventGeneratorID_t egid)

Protected Types

typedef std::map< unsigned
int, std::vector< void * >,
std::less< unsigned int > > 
SIDtoListenerVectorMap_t
 a mapping from source IDs (unsigned ints), each to a vector of pointers to listeners

Protected Attributes

std::vector< void * > allevents [EventBase::numEGIDs]
 an array of vectors of pointers to listeners... in other words, a vector of listener pointers for each generator
SIDtoListenerVectorMap_tfilteredevents [EventBase::numEGIDs][EventBase::numETIDs]
 not for the faint of heart: a matrix of mappings to vectors of pointers to listeners

Member Function Documentation

template<class T>
void EventRouter::EventMapper::getMapping ( const EventBase e,
std::vector< T * > &  listeners 
) const

builds a list of all listeners which should receive the event, templated to typecast the pointers for you

Parameters:
e the key event
listeners upon return, the resulting list of listeners e maps to
listeners is not cleared prior to building, new listeners are pushed on end
Results are in the order: all specific matches first, all generator listeners second, in order they were added to the EventMapper.

bool EventRouter::EventMapper::hasMapping ( EventBase::EventGeneratorID_t  egid,
unsigned int  sid,
EventBase::EventTypeID_t  etid 
) const

so stuff can tell if it even needs to bother generating an event...

... if a tree falls in a forest, and there's no one around to see it, does it make a sound?
... if Vision sees a ball in an image, and there's no listeners, does it make an event? ;)

Returns:
true if it has any listeners, false otherwise

bool EventRouter::EventMapper::removeMapping ( void *  el,

)

Removes a listener for a specific source id and type from a given event generator, returns true if something was actually removed.

Doesn't necessarily remove the vector or mapping if this was the last listener, use clean() to do that

bool EventRouter::EventMapper::verifyMapping ( void *  listener,
EventBase::EventGeneratorID_t  egid,
unsigned int  sid,
EventBase::EventTypeID_t  etid 
) const

Used to make sure that the specified listener exists for the given event.

This is needed because after we call processEvent on a lister, we can't assume that no other listeners have been modified - one listener could cause another to turn off. If that has happened, we shouldn't send the event, even if it was in the queue originally.
