Detailed Description

The AutoParameter class.

This class overides the setValue() method of class Parameter so that no Exception is thrown. This allows to perform optimization under constraint.

Definition at line 58 of file AutoParameter.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

AutoParameter::AutoParameter	(	const std::string &	name = `""`,
		double	value = `0`,
		Constraint *	constraint = `0`,
		bool	attachConstraint = `false`
	)		throw (ConstraintException)

Build a new AutoParameter.

Parameters:

name	The parameter name.
value	The parameter value.
constraint	An optional pointer toward a Constraint object.
attachConstraint	Tell if the constraint must be attached to this parameter, or shared between different objects. See Parameter.

Exceptions:

ConstraintException If the parameter value does not match the contraint.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void bpp::Parameter::addParameterListener	(	ParameterListener *	listener,
		bool	attachListener = `true`
	)		`[inline, virtual, inherited]`

Add a new listener to this parameter.

Parameters:

listener	The listener to add.
attachListener	Tell if the parameter will own this listener. If so, deep copies will be made when cloning the parameter, and the listener will be destroyed upon destruction of the parameter or upon removal. Alternatively, only superficial copies will be made, and the listener will persist if the parameter is destroyed.

void AutoParameter::setValue ( double value ) throw (ConstraintException) [virtual]

Set the value of this parameter.

This method is redefined so that no constraintException is thrown! When a Constraint is match, we automatically apply a correct value instead. This correct value is the nearest limit reached by the value, or a value next to the limit if the limit is not reachable.

This allow to perform optimization under constraint whith algorithms that are not initially built for this.

Parameters:

value the new parameter value.

Exceptions:

ConstraintException Never thrown!
