Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ~IArgument()

virtual HydroCouple::IArgument::~IArgument ( )

virtualdefault

IArgument::~IArgument is a virtual destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ currentArgumentInputType()

virtual ArgumentInputType HydroCouple::IArgument::currentArgumentInputType ( ) const

pure virtual

argumentIOType

Returns

◆ fileFilters()

virtual list< string > HydroCouple::IArgument::fileFilters ( ) const

pure virtual

File type extensions that can be read by this IArgument.

File extensions must be specified using the Qt format e.g. "Images (*.png *.xpm *.jpg) "

Returns: a list of strings for compatible file extensions.

◆ initialize() [1/2]

virtual bool HydroCouple::IArgument::initialize	(	const IComponentDataItem &	componentDataItem,
		string &	message
	)

pure virtual

Reads values from an equivalent IComponentDataItem. IComponentDataItem has been used instead of IArgument so that outputs from one model can be used as initialization arguments for another.

Parameters

[in]	componentDataItem	is the IArgument from which to copy values from.
[out]	message	message returned from file read operation.

Returns: boolean indicating whether file reading was successful.

◆ initialize() [2/2]

virtual bool HydroCouple::IArgument::initialize	(	const string &	value,
		ArgumentInputType	argType,
		string &	message
	)

pure virtual

Reads values from a JSON string.

Parameters

[in]	value	is a string representing values in JSON format.
[in]	argType	is the type of input to be read.
[out]	message	message returned from file read operation.

Returns: boolean indicating whether file/string reading was successful

◆ isOptional()

virtual bool HydroCouple::IArgument::isOptional ( ) const

pure virtual

Specifies whether the argument is optional or not.

If the getValue property returns null and isOptional == false, a value has to be set before the argument can be used

◆ isReadOnly()

virtual bool HydroCouple::IArgument::isReadOnly ( ) const

pure virtual

Defines whether the Values property may be edited.

This is used to let a IModelComponent or an IAdaptedOutput present the actual value of an argument that can not be changed by the user, but is needed to determine the values of other arguments or is informative in any other way.

◆ isValidArgType()

virtual bool HydroCouple::IArgument::isValidArgType ( ArgumentInputType argType ) const

pure virtual

Boolean indicating whether this IArgument copy its values from a string.

Parameters

argType is the type of input to be read.

Returns: True if the argument is read from a string otherwise false.

◆ saveData()

virtual void HydroCouple::IArgument::saveData ( )

pure virtual

Writes data to files associated with this argument if they exist.

Returns

◆ toString()

virtual string HydroCouple::IArgument::toString ( ) const

pure virtual

String/XML representation for this IArgument.

◆ validComponentDataItemTypes()

virtual list< type_info > HydroCouple::IArgument::validComponentDataItemTypes ( ) const

pure virtual

Valid IComponentDataItem instance types that can be read by this argument.
