Detailed Description

Abstact class for configurable objects.

Sort of Hashmap interface. Parameters are double values

The Configurator is an external tool that can be used for changing the values of configurable objects.

Protocoll for Configurator:

To Configurator (BNF notation):
Conf             := <Comp>*
Comp           := <CompName> <Pair>*
CompName := [<string>][<int>]<newline>
Pair               := <alphanum>=<double><newline>

the remaining tags are self explanatory

Example

[Component name which can contain spaces and digits and .,- ][ID1]
key1 = value1
key2 = value2
.
.
[Other Component name which can contain spaces and digits and .,- ][ID2]
key3 = value3

Answer: (from Communicator to Simulation environment)
1. On change of a parameter:

[ID] key=newvalue

or

key=newvalue

the latter one means that the parameter is changed in all components

2. Request of the description as defined above.

Definition at line 90 of file configurable.cpp.

bool restoreCfg (  const char *  filenamestem  )

restores the key values paires from the file : filenamestem.cfg Definition at line 79 of file configurable.cpp.

virtual bool setParam (  const paramkey &  key, paramval  val )  [inline, virtual]

sets the value of the given parameter or does nothing if unknown. Definition at line 100 of file configurable.h.

bool storeCfg (  const char *  filenamestem  )

stores the key values paires into the file : filenamestem.cfg Definition at line 69 of file configurable.cpp.
