Detailed Description

DtRotaryWingPatrolRouteController is a controller used to model patrolling along a route behavior for a rotary-wing entity.

End User Description: The route is followed until complete, then in reverse, then forward, etc., until the entity is retasked.

Uses Descriptor Type: DtRotaryWingPilotDescriptor


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

(const DtString&,DtVrfObject*,DtSimManager*,

Parameters:
nameReader writer name of this component.
ownerThe DtVrfObject that owns this component
simManagerThe simulation manager (provides access to terrain, message interface, simulation clock).
descThe component descriptor used to initialize this component.
parentRegistryPointer to the parent reader writer registry (the containing object that reads/writes this object).
(const DtString&,DtVrfObject*,DtSimManager*, DtComponentDescriptor*,DtReaderWriterRegistry* parentRegistry)

destructor

Default constructor; should not be called.

Here because the compiler will generate an unprotected one otherwise.

copy constructor; shallow; does not copy the ports.


Member Function Documentation

Returns a string identifies the class type of component.

Type values are defined in compTypes.h. DtSimComponent creation functions are registered with the DtSimComponentFactory using the type values as the key.

Returns:
DtRotaryWingPatrolRouteType

Reimplemented from DtRotaryWingMoveAlongControllerComponent.

static void DtRotaryWingPatrolRouteController::patrolRouteCallback ( DtSimMessage msg,
void *  usrData 
) [static]

Instances of this component will register this callback with their own 'this' pointer as user data with the msg executive requesting notification of patrol-route tasks.

Use information provided by the message to set control values.

Gets the name of the route from the message. It looks up the route in the Object Manager to see if it exists. If it exists, it determines the nearest vertex of the route, calls startTask(), sets myProcessState->myReverseFlag to false, and deletes the message.

static DtSimComponent* DtRotaryWingPatrolRouteController::creator ( const DtString name,
DtVrfObject owner,
DtSimManager simManager,
DtComponentDescriptor desc = 0,
DtReaderWriterRegistry parentRegistry = 0 
) [static]

(const DtString&,DtVrfObject*,DtSimManager*,

Parameters:
nameReader writer name of this component.
ownerThe DtVrfObject that owns this component
simManagerThe simulation manager (provides access to terrain, message interface, simulation clock).
descThe component descriptor used to initialize this component.
parentRegistryPointer to the parent reader writer registry (the containing object that reads/writes this object).
(const DtString&,DtVrfObject*,DtSimManager*, DtComponentDescriptor*,DtReaderWriterRegistry* parentRegistry)

Returns:
New instance of this class.

Reimplemented from DtRotaryWingMoveAlongControllerComponent.

Sets control values based on the status along the route each tick.

It maintains the entity at fully velocity unless it is approaching the last vertex on the route, in which case it reduces velocity to 75%.

Reimplemented from DtRotaryWingMoveAlongControllerComponent.

const DtRotaryWingPatrolRouteController& DtRotaryWingPatrolRouteController::operator= ( const DtRotaryWingPatrolRouteController orig) [protected]

assignment operator; see comments on copy constructor!

virtual void DtRotaryWingPatrolRouteController::registerTaskMsgCallbacks ( ) [protected, virtual]

Overrides this so it can register its interest in patrolRoute commands.

Reimplemented from DtRotaryWingMoveAlongControllerComponent.
