Parameters

sp	An interface-compatible Service.

Returns: true if all methods of that are required are provided, false if not all methods could yet be matched.

Member Data Documentation

OperationCaller<bool (const std::string& filename)> RTT::Marshalling::loadProperties

Read a property file and update (or create any missing) properties in the TaskContext.

This function allows to dynamically add properties to a component. This can be useful in combination with Orocos scripts when the script requires additional properties from the parent TaskContext.

OperationCaller<bool (const std::string& filename)> RTT::Marshalling::readProperties

Read the property file and 'refresh' all the properties of the TaskContext.

There may be more properties in the file than properties in the TaskContext, but all properties of the TaskContext must be present in filename. In case a type mismatch occurs, this method will fail and update no properties.

Parameters

filename The file to read from.

Returns: true on success, false on error, consult Logger output for messages.

Definition at line 90 of file Marshalling.hpp.

Referenced by Marshalling().

OperationCaller<bool (const std::string& name,const std::string& filename)> RTT::Marshalling::readProperty

Read a single property from a file.

The name may be a 'path' like location of a Property in the hierarchy.

Parameters

name	The name of the property in the file. For example "MyProp" for a top-level property or "Settings.XML.Editor" to specify a dot-separated 'path' to the property 'Editor'.
filename	The name of the file in which to lookup name.

Definition at line 111 of file Marshalling.hpp.

Referenced by Marshalling().

OperationCaller<bool (const std::string& filename)> RTT::Marshalling::storeProperties

Stores all properties of parent TaskContext in a new file or overwrite an existing one.

The file given in filename will always be overwritten and any existing content will be lost.

Parameters

filename The file to store to.

Returns: true on success, false on error, consult Logger output for messages.

See also: loadProperties() for loading properties in a TaskContext.

Referenced by Marshalling().

OperationCaller<bool (const std::string& filename)> RTT::Marshalling::updateFile

Write the property file with the properties of a TaskContext, which are already present in filename.

No new entries are created in the file, only existing ones are updated. The file is first read in, the resulting tree is updated with the task's properties, and then written to disk again.

Parameters

filename The file to read from and write to.

Returns: true on success, false on error, consult Logger output for messages.

Definition at line 132 of file Marshalling.hpp.

Referenced by Marshalling().

OperationCaller<bool (const std::string& filename)> RTT::Marshalling::updateProperties

Read the property file and 'refresh' some properties of the TaskContext.

There may be more properties in the file than properties in the TaskContext, and some may be missing in the file. This method will update 'as much as possible' properties. In case a type mismatch occurs, this method will fail and update no properties.

Parameters

filename The file to read all the properties from.

Returns: true on success, false on error, consult Logger output for messages.

Definition at line 101 of file Marshalling.hpp.

Referenced by Marshalling().

OperationCaller<bool (const std::string& filename)> RTT::Marshalling::writeProperties

Write the property file with the properties of a TaskContext.

The file is first read in, the resulting tree is updated with the task's properties and then written to disk again. This allows to share files between tasks.

Parameters

filename The file to read from and write to (updating).

Returns: true on success, false on error, consult Logger output for messages.

Definition at line 121 of file Marshalling.hpp.

Referenced by Marshalling().

OperationCaller<bool (const std::string& name, const std::string& filename)> RTT::Marshalling::writeProperty

Write a single property to a file.

The name may be a 'path' like location of a Property in the hierarchy.

Parameters

name	The name of the property in the file. For example "MyProp" for a top-level property or "Settings.XML.Editor" to specify a dot-separated 'path' to the property 'Editor'.
filename	The name of the file in which to write name.
