Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class CompoundUserInfo< T >

The main userinfo template class. You should derive this class whenever you need a new userinfo of a class which is compound from smaller elements (all having its own userinfo class prepared).

To bind some inner element to its own userinfo class, and also to automate its assembling and disassembling, it is necessary to create a instance of an inner templated class BindedElement<T>. Those attributes have to be initialized in constructor of a new compound userinfo this way:

class BikeUI: public CompoundUserInfo<Bike>
{
private:
        BindedElement<int> year; 
        BindedElement<bool> lights; 
        BindedElement<string> manufacturer; 
public:
        BikeUI()
                :CompoundUserInfo<Bike>("bike"),
                year( this, "year", 0 ),
                lights( this, "electric lights", false ), 
                manufacturer( this, "manufacturer", "unknown")
        {
        }

        ...
}

Member Function Documentation

template<class T>

static T* UserInfo::Assembly	(	DOMElement &	element,
		const string	tagName
	)			[inline, static, inherited]

This methods tries to assembly a new instance of type T (or some of its descendant types) according to a data stored in a DOMNode named tagName within a child nodes of the passed element. If an error occurs, it returns a NULL pointer.

References Attribute::Get(), and Attribute::type.

template<class T>

static bool UserInfo::Disassembly	(	T &	instance,
		DOMElement &	element,
		const string	tagName,
		const string	help
	)			[inline, static, inherited]

This methods tries to disassembly an instance of type T (or some of its descendant types) and build DOM tree accordingly. Then, it creates a new DOMNode named according tagName and connecti it to the passed DOMElement as a new child node (with a help attribute filled).

References Attribute::help, Attribute::Set(), and Attribute::type.

template<class T>

static bool UserInfo::Disassembly	(	T &	instance,
		DOMElement &	element,
		const string	tagName
	)			[inline, static, inherited]

This methods tries to disassembly an instance of type T (or some of its descendant types) and build DOM tree accordingly. Then, it creates a new DOMNode named according tagName and connecti it to the passed DOMElement as a new child node.

References UserInfo::Disassembly().
