12.10 - Reports

Reports are radio messages sent between simulation objects over the radio net.

They are one of the three kinds of radio messages supported in VR-Forces (reports, tasks, set data requests). They are used for exchanging information between simulation objects, such as task status, situation reports, or intelligence. VR-Forces currently supports one type of report, the Task Complete report. Simulation objects use this message to notify the sender of a task message that they have completed the given task.

DtSimReport is the abstract base class from which all report classes should be derived. In order to send the report, it gets placed inside of a DtReportMessage object. The DtReportMessage class is used to convey a DtSimReport. Components register callback functions for report messages in the same way that they do for task and set data messages.
