+ Inheritance diagram for gmx::AbstractOptionStorage:

Description

Abstract base class for converting, validating, and storing option values.

This class should normally not be subclassed directly, but the OptionStorageTemplate should be used instead. The templated class provides basic functionality for most of the pure virtual methods, and also integrates well with option setting objects derived from OptionTemplate.

Member Function Documentation

void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::appendValue ( const Any value)

Adds a new value for the option.

Parameters
[in]valueValue to convert.
Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif value cannot be converted, or if there are too many values.

This method should only be called between startSet() and finishSet().

virtual void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::clearSet ( )
protectedpure virtual

Removes all values from temporary storage for a set.

This function is always called before starting to add values to a set, allowing the storage to clear its internal buffers.

Should not throw.

Implemented in gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< T >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int64_t >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< double >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< std::string >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< float >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< Selection >, and gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< bool >.

virtual void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::convertValue ( const Any value)
protectedpure virtual

Adds a new value.

Parameters
[in]valueValue to convert.
Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif value is not valid for this option or if there have been too many values in the set.

This method may be called multiple times if the underlying option is defined to accept multiple values.

See Also
OptionStorageTemplate::convertValue()

Implemented in gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< T >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int64_t >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< double >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< std::string >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< float >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< Selection >, and gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< bool >.

virtual std::vector<Any> gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::defaultValues ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the default value(s) of the option.

The returned values should all be of the same type, but returning each as a separate any is currently simpler.

Currently, this can only be called before option values have been assigned.

Implemented in gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< T >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int64_t >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< double >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< std::string >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< float >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< Selection >, and gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< bool >.

virtual std::vector<std::string> gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::defaultValuesAsStrings ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the default value(s) of the option as strings.

If there is no default value, but defaultValueIfSet() is set, that is returned instead.

Currently, this can only be called before option values have been assigned.

Implemented in gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< T >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int64_t >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< double >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< std::string >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< float >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< Selection >, and gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< bool >.

void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::finish ( )

Performs validation and/or actions once all values have been added.

Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif the option is required but not set, or if all valid values together are invalid as a set.

This method should be called after all values have been provided with appendValue().

void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::finishSet ( )

Performs validation and/or actions once a set of values has been added.

Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif too few values have been provided, or if the valid values since previous startSet() are invalid as a set.

If the parameter is specified multiple times, finishSet() should be called after the values for each instance.

virtual std::string gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::formatExtraDescription ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Formats additional description for the option.

If this method returns a non-empty string, it is appended to the plain description when printing help texts. The default implementation returns an empty string.

bool gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::isBoolean ( ) const

Returns true if the option is a boolean option.

This is used to optionally support an alternative syntax where an option provided with no value sets the value to true and an option prefixed with "no" clears the value.

virtual std::vector<Any> gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::normalizeValues ( const std::vector< Any > &  values) const
pure virtual

Converts given values to native representation for this option.

For example, strings are parsed to the type that is actually used to store the options.

The return value only depends on the option type, not on the current value of the option, and the current value in the option is not changed.

Implemented in gmx::OptionStorageTemplateSimple< T >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplateSimple< int64_t >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplateSimple< double >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplateSimple< std::string >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplateSimple< float >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplateSimple< int >, and gmx::OptionStorageTemplateSimple< bool >.

virtual void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::processAll ( )
protectedpure virtual

Performs validation and/or actions once all values have been added.

Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif all provided values are not valid as a set.

This method is always called once.

If the method throws, implementation should take care to leave the option in a consistent, meaningful state. However, currently none of the implementations actually throw in any situation where the option may be left in an inconsistent state.

Implemented in gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< T >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int64_t >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< double >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< std::string >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< float >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< Selection >, and gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< bool >.

virtual void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::processSet ( )
protectedpure virtual

Performs validation and/or actions once a set of values has been added.

Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif the values in the set are not valid as a whole.

This method may be called multiple times if the underlying option can be specified multiple times. This method is not currently called if one of the convertValue() calls throwed.

Todo:
Improve the call semantics.
See Also
OptionStorageTemplate::processSetValues()

Implemented in gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< T >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int64_t >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< double >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< std::string >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< float >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< int >, gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< Selection >, and gmx::OptionStorageTemplate< bool >.

void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::setMaxValueCount ( int  count)
protected

Sets a new maximum number of values required in one set.

Parameters
[in]countNew maximum number of values (must be > 0, or -1 for no limit).
Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif already provided values violate the limit.

If values have already been provided, it is checked that there are not too many.

Cannot be called for options with efOption_MultipleTimes set, because it is impossible to check the requirement after the values have been set. If attempted, will assert.

void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::setMinValueCount ( int  count)
protected

Sets a new minimum number of values required in one set.

Parameters
[in]countNew minimum number of values (must be > 0).
Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif already provided values violate the limit.

If values have already been provided, it is checked that there are enough.

Cannot be called for options with efOption_MultipleTimes set, because it is impossible to check the requirement after the values have been set. If attempted, will assert.

void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::startSet ( )

Starts adding a new set of values for the option.

Exceptions
InvalidInputErrorif option is specified multiple times, but is not specified to accept it.

If the parameter is specified multiple times, startSet() should be called before the values for each instance.

Strong exception safety guarantee.

void gmx::AbstractOptionStorage::startSource ( )

Starts adding values from a new source for the option.

This marks the vurrent value of the option as a default value, causing next call to startSet() to clear it. This allows values from the new source to overwrite old values.

This method does not throw.
