Detailed Description

At startup all of the assistant manager classes will register their signals and slots with the signal router.

The signal router will then ensure that they are all appropriated connected, without the need for each manager to understand who is responsible for handling its command or query.

Member Function Documentation

void DtAssistantSignalRouter::connectSignals

(

)

Establishes connections between the various signals and slot.

All signals and slots must be registered prior to calling this.

DtAssistantSignalRouter& DtAssistantSignalRouter::operator= ( DtAssistantSignalRouter const &  )

private

Assignment not implemented – Assignment Not Allowed!

void DtAssistantSignalRouter::printMappings

(

)

Print the signal/slot mappings.

void DtAssistantSignalRouter::registerQuery	(	DtAssistantQueryId	queryId,
		QObject *	obj,
		const char *	sig
	)

Register a signal to generate a query.

A query can have many queriers but only one query responder. Generally one of the parameters will be a an output parameter with the query response.

bool DtAssistantSignalRouter::registerQueryResponder	(	DtAssistantQueryId	queryId,
		QObject *	obj,
		const char *	slot
	)

Register a slot to process and respond to a query.

A query can have many queriers but only one query responder. Will return false if a responder has already been registered for this query. Generally one of the parameters will be a an output parameter with the query response.

void DtAssistantSignalRouter::registerSignal	(	DtAssistantSignalId	sigId,
		QObject *	obj,
		const char *	sig
	)

Register a signal.

void DtAssistantSignalRouter::registerSlot	(	DtAssistantSignalId	sigId,
		QObject *	obj,
		const char *	slot
	)

Register a slot.

In reality this can also be another signal if a manager would like to simply pass the signal on to widgets it manages.
