Detailed Description

A VariableIndex associates a Variable pointer with it's index into it's SampleTag.

Sensor classes can use this to keep a pointer to a Variable and locate the Variable's data in the samples with it's SampleTag. See DSMSensor::findVariableIndex().

A variable's index into the sample tag is not necessarily the same as the offset to the variable's data inside a sample, since the preceding variables may have lengths greater than 1. So this may be a good place to store the data offset also, and then sensor code could be modified to use this class and the offset rather than using simple integer index directly.

This functionality could be rolled into the Variable class, but it would be up to the SampleTag to update the index of all the Variable's whenever the Variable list changes. For now, this class at least allows managing a Variable pointer and index after the SampleTag is finished.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

VariableIndex() [1/3]

nidas::core::VariableIndex::VariableIndex ( )

inline

Default constructor creates an invalid VariableIndex: the Variable pointer is null and the index is -1.

VariableIndex() [2/3]

nidas::core::VariableIndex::VariableIndex ( Variable * var, int index )

inline

Construct a VariableIndex with the given Variable and index.

VariableIndex() [3/3]

nidas::core::VariableIndex::VariableIndex ( const VariableIndex & rhs )

inline

The copy constructor copies the pointer and index of the given VariableIndex.

get()

float nidas::core::VariableIndex::get ( float * fdata, float dflt )

inline

Return the data value at this variable's index into fdata.

If this variable does not have a valid index, then return dflt.

set()

void nidas::core::VariableIndex::set ( float * fdata, float value )

inline

Set value at this variable's index into fdata.

If this variable does not have a valid index, then nothing is changed.
