Detailed Description

The RefVector and its base class RefVectorBase defines an interface to a class derived from the InterfacedBase, through which vectors (or any other container) of pointers to other InterfacedBase objects may be manipulated.

RefVector is templated on the type of the class and the class of the objects pointed to, and is derived from the InterfaceBase class via RefVectorBase and RefInterfaceBase.

For each InterfacedBase class exactly one static RefVector object should created for each member variable of container type which should be interfaced. This object will automatically register itself with the BaseRepository class.

◆ RefVectorBase()

ThePEG::RefVectorBase::RefVectorBase	(	string	newName,

		const type_info &	newTypeInfo,
		string	newRefClassName,
		const type_info &	newRefTypeInfo,
		int	newSize,

		bool	nullable,
		bool	defnull
	)

Standard constructor.

Parameters

newName	the name of the interface, may only contain letters [a-zA-z0-9_].
newDescription	a brief description of the interface.
newClassName	the name of the corresponding class.
newTypeInfo	the type_info object of the corresponding class.
newRefClassName	the name of the class pointed to.
newRefTypeInfo	the type_info object of the class pointed to.
newSize	the size of the container or -1 if varying.
depSafe	set to true if calls to this interface for one object does not influence other objects.
readonly	if this is set true the interface will not be able to manipulate objects of the corresponding class, but will still be able to access information.
norebind	if set to true, this interface is not responsible for the rebinding of corresponding objects.
nullable	if set to true this corresponding references may be null.
defnull	if set to true and a corresponding reference is null it may be given a a default value in the initialization of an EventGenerator.

Member Function Documentation

◆ exec()

virtual string ThePEG::RefVectorBase::exec	(	InterfacedBase &	ib,
		string	action,
		string	arguments
	)		const

virtual

The general interface method overriding the one in InterfaceBase.

For this class, action can be any of "set", "get", "erase" and "insert" and argument should be a something which can be read into an integer while the rest of argument should correspond to the name of an InterfacedBase object in the BaseRepository.

Implements ThePEG::InterfaceBase.

◆ rebind()

virtual void ThePEG::RefVectorBase::rebind	(	InterfacedBase &	ib,
		const TranslationMap &	trans,
		const IVector &	defs
	)		const

virtual

In the object ib, replace all pointers to objects in this interface with the translated ones provided by trans.

If a pointer is null, and defaultIfNull() is true, replace it with the first alowed object found in defs.

Reimplemented from ThePEG::InterfaceBase.

◆ setSize()

void ThePEG::RefVectorBase::setSize ( int sz )

inline

Set the size of the container being interfaced.

If the size is less than 0, the size is allowed to vary.

Definition at line 178 of file RefVector.h.

References theSize.

◆ setVariableSize()

void ThePEG::RefVectorBase::setVariableSize ( )

inline

Set the size of the container being interfaced to -1, i.e.

the size is allowed to vary.

Definition at line 184 of file RefVector.h.

References theSize.

◆ size()

int ThePEG::RefVectorBase::size ( ) const

inline

Get the size of the container being interfaced.

If the size() is less than 0, the size is allowed to vary.
