Detailed Description

DtSpotReportGeneratorController is a controller that sends spot reports based on the contact list in the entity state repository.

End User Description: This controller monitors the object contact list in the state repository, and sends spot reports to the network when new contacts are detected on the list. A spot report is sent for each sensor contact listed. Spot reports are resent on a periodic basis, based on a setting in the descriptor. Spot reports are sent to the local radio network using the default radio. The contents of a spot report are defined in the DtSpotReport class.

Spot reporting can be enabled and disabled though the DtSetSpotReportingRequest set data request.

Uses Descriptor Type: DtSpotReportGeneratorControllerDescriptor

DtSpotReportGeneratorController& DtSpotReportGeneratorController::operator= ( const DtSpotReportGeneratorController &  orig )

private

Not Implemented.

virtual bool DtSpotReportGeneratorController::init ( )

virtual

Init.

Call immediately after construction. If forwardSubordinateReports is true in the descriptor, calls registerSpotReportCallback().

Reimplemented from DtControllerComponent.

virtual DtString DtSpotReportGeneratorController::type ( ) const

virtual

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

DtSpotReportGeneratorControllerType

Reimplemented from DtControllerComponent.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::tick ( )

virtual

This components simulation tick.

If any connected sensor has provided new data since the last tick, fuseSensorContacts() and generateAndSendSpotReports() are called.

Reimplemented from DtSimComponent.

static void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::setSpotReportingCallback ( DtSimMessage *  msg, void *  usr  )

static

Calls processSetSpotReporting().

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::processSetSpotReporting ( DtSimMessage *  msg )

virtual

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::setLocalEnabled ( bool  on )

virtual

When called, this controller will no longer send spot reports according to the global spot reports setting.

It will use the local setting specified until setGlobalEnabledOverridingLocal().

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::setGlobalEnabledOverridingLocal ( )

virtual

When called, this controller will use the global spot reports setting to determine if it should send spot reports.

If the global setting is already in use, this will have no effect. If the local setting is in use and it is different from the global setting, spot reports will be enabled or disabled to match the global setting. To change the enabled setting for this controller only, call setLocalEnabled.

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

static

(const DtString&,DtVrfObject*,DtSimManager*,

Parameters

name	Reader writer name of this component.
owner	The DtVrfObject that owns this component
simManager	The simulation manager (provides access to terrain, message interface, simulation clock).
desc	The component descriptor used to initialize this component.
parentRegistry	Pointer 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.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::turnSpotReportingOn ( )

protectedvirtual

Performs the internal processing necessary to change the spot reporting enabled state.

To change the state from another class, setLocalEnabled or setGlobalEnabledOverridingLocal should be called.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::turnSpotReportingOff ( )

protectedvirtual

Performs the internal processing necessary to change the spot reporting enabled state.

To change the state from another class, setLocalEnabled or setGlobalEnabledOverridingLocal should be called.

virtual bool DtSpotReportGeneratorController::createPorts ( )

protectedvirtual

Creates and initializes ports.

Reimplemented from DtSimComponent.

virtual bool DtSpotReportGeneratorController::createPSR ( )

protectedvirtual

Creates myProcessState data member, and adds it to our process state repository manager.

Passes in the name and type specified in the component descriptor (if they exist) to the DtVrfProcessStateRepository::createRepository factory method. If name and/or type is not specified, uses the appropriate default strings defined in procSRTypes.h.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::registerRadioMessageCallbacks ( )

protectedvirtual

Registers for setSpotReportingRequest messages from the local entity's radio.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::generateAndSendSpotReports ( )

protectedvirtual

Walks the fusedSensorContacts list.

Any contacts that are not in the past spot report list trigger a new spot report to be generated using createSpotReportForContact() and send using sendSpotReport(). Any contacts that are in both lists are checked by a call to spotReportNeedsUpdateAndResend. If returns true, then updateSpotReportForContact() is called and the updated report is sent with sendSpotReport(). Any contacts that have been removed from the fusedSensorContacts list since the last update have their corresponding spot reports removed from the spot report list.

virtual DtSpotReport* DtSpotReportGeneratorController::createSpotReportForContact ( const DtRwSensorContactInfo &  contactInfo )

protectedvirtual

Creates a new spot report instance using the report type returned from spotReportTypeString(), and fills it in with data from the contact info.

Override this method to add custom data to a spot report.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::updateSpotReportForContact ( DtSpotReport &  spotReport, const DtRwSensorContactInfo &  contact  )

protectedvirtual

Updates an existing spot report with data from a sensor contact.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::sendSpotReport ( DtSpotReport &  spotReport, bool  superiorOnly  )

protectedvirtual

Uses the default radio on the entity to send the spot report.

Parameters

superiorOnly

If this is true, then the spot report is addressed directly to the entity's superior. Otherwise, it is broadcast to the local network.

virtual bool DtSpotReportGeneratorController::spotReportNeedsUpdateAndResend ( const DtSpotReport &  spotRep, const DtRwSensorContactInfo &  contact  )

protectedvirtual

Returns

true if the spot report (which was previously sent) needs to be updated and resent. Default implementation checks the report time against the resend period in the descriptor. Override this method if you need spot reports resent on "significant changes" to the contacted entity, or something similar.

virtual const DtSimReportMessageType& DtSpotReportGeneratorController::spotReportTypeString ( ) const

protectedvirtual

Returns the type string that will be used in the DtSimReport factory to generate new instances of spot reports.

If you wish to use a custom spot report, override this method to return the new type. In order for this component to work, the report created MUST be a subclass of DtSpotReport.

Returns

DtSpotReportTypeString

static void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::settingConsumerCallback ( const DtSettingsObject *  settingsObject, void *  usr  )

staticprotected

This is the DtSettingsConsumerFcn registered with the DtVrfSimSettingsManager to get updates when the global spot reports enabled setting changes.

It calls readGlobalEnabledSetting.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::readGlobalEnabledSetting ( const DtBoolSetting *  enabledSetting )

protectedvirtual

If myProcessState::globalEnabledOverridingLocal() is true, the global state from the given settings object will be applied to this controller.

static void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::hostilitiesChangedCallback ( DtU8  force, void *  usr  )

staticprotected

Callback method invoked by the hostility manager when the hostilities between various forces have changed.

virtual void DtSpotReportGeneratorController::processHostilitiesChanged ( DtU8  force )

protectedvirtual

Callback method invoked by the hostility manager when the hostilities between various forces have changed.

virtual bool DtSpotReportGeneratorController::reportingEnabled ( ) const

protectedvirtual

Returns true if the sending of spot reports is enabled.

If DtSpotReportGeneratorControllerPSR::globalEnabledOverridingLocal is true, myGlobalEnabled is returned and otherwise DtSpotReportGeneratorControllerPSR::localEnabled is returned.
