Methods Documentation

void Accept ( IContainerVisitor visitor)
inlinevirtual

Accepts IContainerVisitor to access the object published fields.

Parameters
visitor[in,out] The visitor.

Reimplemented from ConceptContainer.

Reimplemented in IoSimulation, IoTechnologyChannel, IoNull, and IoTechnologyChannelBase.

void Activate ( )

Activate the technology.

Calls IntenalActivate()

void Deactivate ( )

Deactivate the technology.

Calls IntenalDeactivate()

virtual void GetMappingItemFactories ( BaseConceptFactories factories)
pure virtual

Retrives the mapping factories provided by the technology.

Parameters
factories[in, out] The factories list to populate.

Implemented in IoSimulation, IoNull, and IoTechnologyChannelBase.

void Initialize ( )
protected

Initialize called by the CONCEPT_BEGIN macros to initialize the values.

virtual void InternalActivate ( )
protectedpure virtual

Internal activation of the technology.

Implemented in IoSimulation, IoTechnologyChannel, IoNull, and IoTechnologyChannelBase.

virtual void InternalDeactivate ( )
protectedpure virtual

Internal deactivation of the technology.

Implemented in IoSimulation, IoNull, and IoTechnologyChannelBase.

void Invoke ( const DynamicInvocationRequest request,
DynamicInvocationResult result 
)
inlinevirtual

Invokes the object fields and methods.

Parameters
requestThe request.
result[in,out] The result.

Dynamic Invocation on IInvocable objects enables us to have remote access on published fields and methods.

Reimplemented from ConceptContainer.

bool IsActivated ( )

Query if the technology has been activated.

Returns
True if yes, false if not.
virtual bool IsAlive ( )
pure virtual

Query if the technology is alive.

Returns
True if yes, false if not.

Implemented in IoSimulation, IoNull, and IoTechnologyChannelBase.
