Detailed Description

Interface class used to define minimal interface for a property.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum DtPropertyInterface::MergeFlags

Enumerator:

Replace
MinimalSimilarityCheck	Replace contents wholesale.
RollUp	Do not do a stringent compare on items – allows for partial item replacement.
AddMissing	This will add up numerical items and keep string items if the values are similar, else it will remove. Any item that exists in the to be merged that does not exist in the source will be added as long as the structures are similar, else they will be ignored
KeepIsPublished	Any items missing will be added to the target.

virtual bool DtPropertyInterface::isSimilarProperty ( const DtPropertyInterface * rhs ) const

Returns true if the readerWriterType is the same.

Subclasses can do extra checking

Reimplemented in DtRwPropertiesList, DtRwPropertiesMap, and DtRwPropertiesStructure.

virtual bool DtPropertyInterface::merge	(	const DtPropertyInterface &	target,
		MergeFlags	,
		const DtMergePath &	path = `DtMergePath()`,
		const std::set< DtString > &	ignore = `std::set< DtString >()`
	)

pure virtual

Takes the contents of the supplied properties and merges with the following rules if replace is false: 1) If the same named property of the same type (and prototype and key) exists regardless of what the contents are in this property, it is replaced with the contents of the target 2) If a property in the target does not exist in source, it is not merged in 3) All other items are kept in the source.

If replace is true, any matching items are replaced by their target. This will add/remove properties

This is a non-recursive function. It only looks at top level property items.

Returns true if merge was successful

Implemented in DtRwProperty< _RwType >, DtRwProperty< DtRwString >, DtRwProperty< DtRwInt >, DtRwProperty< DtRwInt8 >, DtRwProperty< DtRwInt16 >, DtRwProperty< DtRwReal >, DtRwProperty< DtRwVector >, DtRwProperty< DtRwReal64 >, DtRwProperty< DtRwBoolean >, DtRwProperty< DtRwOffsetVector >, DtRwProperty< DtRwInt32 >, DtRwProperty< DtRwReal32 >, and DtRwProperties.
