Detailed Description

abstract superclass of all information helpers

Information helpers are used by information property to obtain information from the server. Since there can be more than way to populate an information property, this functionality was moved to a separate hierarchy of helper classes. Each information property has an associated information helper that is specified in the XML configuration file.

Member Function Documentation

vtkSMInformationHelper::vtkTypeRevisionMacro (  vtkSMInformationHelper  , vtkSMObject  )

void vtkSMInformationHelper::PrintSelf (  ostream &  os, vtkIndent  indent )

Reimplemented from vtkSMObject. Reimplemented in vtkSMArraySelectionInformationHelper, vtkSMSimpleDoubleInformationHelper, vtkSMSimpleIntInformationHelper, vtkSMSimpleProxyInformationHelper, vtkSMSimpleStringInformationHelper, vtkSMTimeStepsInformationHelper, and vtkSMXDMFInformationHelper.

virtual void vtkSMInformationHelper::UpdateProperty (  int  serverIds, vtkClientServerID  objectId, vtkSMProperty *  prop )  [pure virtual]

Fill in the property with values obtained from server. The way in which the information is obtained depends on the sub-class. Implemented in vtkSMArraySelectionInformationHelper, vtkSMSimpleDoubleInformationHelper, vtkSMSimpleIntInformationHelper, vtkSMSimpleProxyInformationHelper, vtkSMSimpleStringInformationHelper, vtkSMTimeStepsInformationHelper, and vtkSMXDMFInformationHelper.

virtual int vtkSMInformationHelper::ReadXMLAttributes (  vtkSMProperty *  , vtkPVXMLElement *  )  [inline, protected, virtual]

Set the appropriate ivars from the xml element. Should be overwritten by subclass if adding ivars. Reimplemented in vtkSMArraySelectionInformationHelper. Definition at line 64 of file vtkSMInformationHelper.h.
