Detailed Description

Abstract class to provide functions generic to all the input directives.

This class is used by the input manager FGInput to manage a list of different input classes without needing to know the details of each one of them. It also provides the functions that are common to all the input classes.

The class inherits from FGModelFunctions so it is possible to define functions that execute before or after the input is generated. Such functions need to be tagged with a "pre" or "post" type attribute to denote the sequence in which they should be executed.

The class mimics some functionalities of FGModel (methods InitModel(), Run() and SetRate()). However it does not inherit from FGModel since it is conceptually different from the model paradigm.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ FGInputType()

JSBSim::FGInputType::FGInputType ( FGFDMExec * fdmex )

Constructor (implement the FGModel interface).

Parameters

fdmex a pointer to the parent executive object

Definition at line 50 of file FGInputType.cpp.

◆ ~FGInputType()

JSBSim::FGInputType::~FGInputType ( )

override

Destructor.

Definition at line 58 of file FGInputType.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ Debug()

void JSBSim::FGInputType::Debug ( int from )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from JSBSim::FGModel.

Definition at line 131 of file FGInputType.cpp.

◆ Disable()

void JSBSim::FGInputType::Disable ( void )

inline

Disables the input generation.

Definition at line 114 of file FGInputType.h.

◆ Enable()

void JSBSim::FGInputType::Enable ( void )

inline

Enables the input generation.

Definition at line 112 of file FGInputType.h.

◆ GetInputName()

virtual const std::string & JSBSim::FGInputType::GetInputName ( void ) const

inlinevirtual

Get the name identifier to which the input will be directed.

Returns: the name identifier.

Definition at line 129 of file FGInputType.h.

◆ InitModel()

bool JSBSim::FGInputType::InitModel ( void )

overridevirtual

Init the input model according to its configitation.

Reimplemented from JSBSim::FGModelFunctions.

Definition at line 88 of file FGInputType.cpp.

◆ Load()

bool JSBSim::FGInputType::Load ( Element * el )

overridevirtual

Init the input directives from an XML file (implement the FGModel interface).

Parameters

element XML Element that is pointing to the input directives

Reimplemented from JSBSim::FGModel.

Reimplemented in JSBSim::FGUDPInputSocket.

Definition at line 72 of file FGInputType.cpp.

◆ Read()

virtual void JSBSim::FGInputType::Read ( bool Holding )

pure virtual

Generate the input.

This is a pure method so it must be implemented by the classes that inherits from FGInputType. The Read name may not be relevant to all inputs but it has been kept for backward compatibility.

Implemented in JSBSim::FGInputSocket, and JSBSim::FGUDPInputSocket.

◆ Run()

bool JSBSim::FGInputType::Run ( bool Holding )

overridevirtual

Executes the input directives (implement the FGModel interface).

This method checks that the current time step matches the input rate and calls the registered "pre" functions, the input generation and finally the "post" functions.

Returns: false if no error.

Reimplemented from JSBSim::FGModel.

Definition at line 98 of file FGInputType.cpp.

◆ SetIdx()

void JSBSim::FGInputType::SetIdx ( unsigned int idx )

Set the idx for this input instance.

Parameters

idx	ID of the input instance that is constructed

Definition at line 65 of file FGInputType.cpp.

◆ SetInputName()

virtual void JSBSim::FGInputType::SetInputName ( const std::string & name )

inlinevirtual

Overwrites the name identifier under which the input will be read.

This method is taken into account if it is called before FGFDMExec::RunIC() otherwise it is ignored until the next call to SetStartNewInput().

Parameters

name new name

Definition at line 125 of file FGInputType.h.

◆ Toggle()

bool JSBSim::FGInputType::Toggle ( void )

inline

Toggles the input generation.

Returns: the input generation status i.e. true if the input has been enabled, false if the input has been disabled.

Definition at line 118 of file FGInputType.h.
