Member Typedef Documentation

typedef std::map<std::string, Value *> JAULA::Value_Object::dataType

Data type for value contents.

Description
Definition for the data container internal structure.
This data type defines a map of pointers to any kind of values (including objects) indexed by a property name that is always a string.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Default Constructor.

Description
The default constructor initializes an empty object.

Data Constructor.

Parameters:
dataReference to the data to be copied
Description
This constructor generates a new instance by making a deep copy of the original data.

References data_, and JAULA::Value::duplicate().

Destructor.

Note:
The destruction process releases all the memory associated to the data structure so any reference to the object or any element in it will be void.

References clear().


Member Function Documentation

void JAULA::Value_Object::clear ( void  ) [virtual]

Empties the contents of an instance.

Description
Erases the contained array.
Note:
As the array is destroyed by the process, any references to it or to any of its elements will be void.

Implements JAULA::Value_Complex.

References data_.

Referenced by set(), and ~Value_Object().

bool JAULA::Value_Object::empty ( void  ) const [virtual]

True if the instance is empty.

Returns:
true if there are no single elements contained in the object and false otherwise.

Implements JAULA::Value_Complex.

References data_.

Retrieves the map of values contained by the instance.

References data_.

Referenced by JAULA::Value::duplicate(), and set().

void JAULA::Value_Object::insertItem ( std::string const &  name,
Value const &  item 
) throw (Name_Duplicated)

Inserts one item to the object.

Parameters:
nameName for the property to insert
itemItem value to be inserted
Exceptions:
Name_DuplicatedThis exception is thrown in case the object already has a property with the same name as the one to insert.
Description
Inserts a deep copy of the item value at the specified name fot the object.
void JAULA::Value_Object::repr ( std::ostream &  ostr) const [virtual]

Represents the instance in a stream.

Parameters:
ostrStream where the instance is to be represented.
Description
writes the instance content in JSON notation in a stream.

Implements JAULA::Value.

References data_.

void JAULA::Value_Object::set ( dataType const &  data)

Establishes the contents of the instance.

Parameters:
datamap of values to assign to the instance
Note:
The destination object is destroyed during the asignment process so, any references to it or to its former elements will be void.

References clear(), data_, and JAULA::Value::duplicate().

void JAULA::Value_Object::set ( Value const &  origin) throw (Bad_Data_Type) [virtual]

Copies the contents of one instance into another.

Parameters:
originReference to the value to be copied.
Exceptions:
Bad_Data_TypeThis exception is launched in case that origin and destination value types are different.
Note:
The destination object is destroyed during the asignment process so, any references to it or to its former elements will be void.

Reimplemented from JAULA::Value.

References JAULA::Exception::addOrigin(), getData(), and JAULA::Value::set().

size_t JAULA::Value_Object::size ( void  ) const [virtual]

Number of elements contained.

Returns:
the number of single elements contained by the object.

Implements JAULA::Value_Complex.
