Detailed Description

This module implements a class of data types which can be used to manage context specific, named parameters. They provide a standard way to pass, for instance, command line information to different components of an application.

The fundamental parts of a parameter are its name, a context to which it belongs (a specific component of an application for instance), its current value and a default value.

The implementation supports three classes of parameters:

A plain value
A range of values
An enumeration value

When a parameter is created it is created for a particular value type. The type of a parameter's current and default value may be (cf. Type codes):

CPL_TYPE_BOOL
CPL_TYPE_INT
CPL_TYPE_DOUBLE
CPL_TYPE_STRING

When a value is assigned to a parameter, the different parameter classes behave differently. For a plain value, no checks are applied to the data value to be assigned. For a range or an enumeration, on the other hand, the value to be stored is validated with respect to the minimum and maximum value of the range and the list of enumeration alternatives respectively. If the value is invalid, an error is reported.

Note: The validation of parameter values on assignment is not yet implemented.

The functions to create a new parameter of a particular class are polymorphic and accept any value type mentioned above to initialise the parameter to create. This is accomplished by using a variable argument list. The number and type of the parameters expected by these functions is determined from the parameter class and the indicated value type.

The constructor of a plain value expects a single value, the parameter's default value, which must be of the appropriate type, as argument while the constructor of a range parameter expects the default value, followed by the minimum value and the maximum value. The constructor of an enumeration parameter expects as arguments the default value, the number of possible enumeration values followed by the list of the possible enumeration values. Note that the default value must be a member of the list of possible enumeration values.

An example of how parameters of the different classes are created and destroyed is shown below:

cpl_parameter *value;
cpl_parameter *range;
cpl_parameter *enumeration;
 
...
 
value = cpl_parameter_new_value("Value", CPL_TYPE_INT,
                                "This is a plain value of type integer",
                                "Example",
                                -1);
 
range = cpl_parameter_new_range("Range", CPL_TYPE_DOUBLE,
                                "This is a value range of type double",
                                "Example",
                                0.5, 0.0, 1.0);
 
enumeration = cpl_parameter_new_enum("Enum", CPL_TYPE_STRING,
                                     "This is an enumeration of type "
                                     "string",
                                     "Example",
                                     "first", 3, "first", "second",
                                     "third");
 
...
 
cpl_parameter_delete(value);
cpl_parameter_delete(range);
cpl_parameter_delete(enumeration);

After the parameter has been created and initialised the parameters current value equals its default value. The initialisation values are copied into the parameter, i.e. if an initialiser value resides in dynamically allocated memory, it can be deallocated after the parameter has been initialised without affecting the created parameter.

Note: A variable argument list allows only limited type checking. Therefore, code explicitly what you mean and double check the constructor calls that the number of arguments and the types of the elements of the variable argument list are what the constructor expects. For instance, if a constructor takes a floating-point argument do not forget to put the decimal point at the end!

The size of the array of alternatives is given by size. The type of all alternatives given must match the parameter's value type as it is indicated by type. Enumeration parameters can only be created for the value types integer, double or string.

To properly initialise the newly created range the parameters default value together with the minimum and maximum value of the range has to be passed as the variable argument list arguments. The type of all initialisation arguments must match the parameter's value type as it is indicated by type. Range parameters can only be created for the value types integer or double.

The following example creates a double range parameter with the unique name application.setup.range which belongs to the context application.setup with the default def and the range boundary values minimum and maximum.

Example:: double def = 0.5;

double min = 0.0;

double max = 1.0;

◆ cpl_parameter_set_tag()

cpl_error_code cpl_parameter_set_tag	(	cpl_parameter *	self,
		const char *	tag
	)

Set the tag of the given parameter.

Parameters

self	A parameter.
tag	Tag string to assign.

Returns: The function returns CPL_ERROR_NONE on success or a CPL error code otherwise.

Errors

CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT The parameter self is a NULL pointer.

The function assigns a user definable tag tag to the parameter self. The function does not check the passed string tag in any way. The tag may be used by an application but it cannot rely on the contents of the parameter's tag.
