Detailed Description
All generator classes inherit from this object in order to allow them to be added to the TypeInfoRepository.
This class is solely meant for installing TypeInfo objects, so a helper class to the type system which has no function once the type registration is done.

| virtual TypeInfo* RTT::types::TypeInfoGenerator::getTypeInfoObject | ( | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Returns the TypeInfo object of this type, or null if none exists yet.
- Returns:
- All generators should return here TypeInfoRepository::Instance()->getTypeInfo<T>();
Implemented in RTT::types::TypeInfoName< T >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, has_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< rt_string, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< bool, false >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::vector< double >, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, true >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::string, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::vector< T >, use_ostream >, and RTT::types::EmptyTypeInfo.

| virtual const std::string& RTT::types::TypeInfoGenerator::getTypeName | ( | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Return the type name for which this generator generates type info features.
This name will be aliased by the TypeInfo object.
Implemented in RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, has_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< rt_string, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< bool, false >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::vector< double >, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, true >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::string, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::vector< T >, use_ostream >, and RTT::types::EmptyTypeInfo.

| virtual bool RTT::types::TypeInfoGenerator::installTypeInfoObject | ( | TypeInfo * | ti | ) | [pure virtual] |
Installs the type info object in the global data source type info handler and adds any additional features to the type info object.
This method will be called by the TypeInfoRepository, in order to register this type's factories into the TypeInfo object.
- Parameters:
-
ti A valid TypeInfo object into which new features may be installed
- Returns:
- true if this object may be deleted, false if not.
- Postcondition:
- When true is returned, this instance is still valid and the caller (TypeInfoRepository) will delete it. When false is returned, the validity is undefined and the instance will not be used anymore by the caller.
Implemented in RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< T, use_ostream >, RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< T, has_ostream >, RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< rt_string, has_ostream >, RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< std::vector< T >, has_ostream >, RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< std::string, has_ostream >, RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< T, true >, RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< bool >, RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< std::vector< double >, has_ostream >, RTT::types::TemplateTypeInfo< T, false >, RTT::types::TypeInfoName< T >, RTT::types::BoostArrayTypeInfo< T, has_ostream >, RTT::types::EnumTypeInfo< T >, RTT::types::CArrayTypeInfo< T, has_ostream >, RTT::types::StructTypeInfo< T, has_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, has_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< rt_string, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< bool, false >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::vector< double >, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< T, true >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::string, use_ostream >, RTT::types::PrimitiveTypeInfo< std::vector< T >, use_ostream >, and RTT::types::EmptyTypeInfo.
