Typedef Documentation

typedef sequence<Condition> ACS::ConditionSeq

A sequence of Condition. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef sequence<double> ACS::doubleSeq

A sequence of double. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef sequence<doubleSeq> ACS::doubleSeqSeq

Sequences of doubleSeq, following the same naming pattern as simple sequences.

typedef sequence<float> ACS::floatSeq

A sequence of float. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef sequence<floatSeq> ACS::floatSeqSeq

Sequences of floatSeq, following the same naming pattern as simple sequences.

typedef long long ACS::longLong

A 64-bit signed integer

typedef sequence<longLong> ACS::longLongSeq

A sequence of longLong. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef sequence<long> ACS::longSeq

A sequence of long. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef sequence<longSeq> ACS::longSeqSeq

Sequences of longSeq, following the same naming pattern as simple sequences.

typedef string ACS::ModeName

typedef unsigned long long ACS::pattern

A 64-bit long used as a pattern of 64 bits.

typedef sequence<pattern> ACS::patternSeq

A sequence of pattern. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef sequence<PropertyDesc> ACS::PropertyDescSeq

A sequence of PropertyDescSeq. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef string ACS::StateName

typedef sequence<string> ACS::stringSeq

Sequences are used extensively with components that deal with multiple devices (groups) or properties, which manage a value of sequence type. Sequences defined by BACI are also used to optimize the number of network calls needed to query a remote object. The naming pattern is always <type>Seq.

typedef sequence<stringSeq> ACS::stringSeqSeq

Sequences of stringSeq, following the same naming pattern as simple sequences.

typedef sequence<string> ACS::StringSequence

typedef unsigned long ACS::Tag

A Tag type that allows the client to tag and later identify Callbacks through the DescIn and DescOut structures. Through both structures, the client programmer can exchange the id_tag parameter with the server to uniquely tag the remote call. The only interaction the control system has with the id_tag is that it passes it unchanged from CBDescIn to CBDescOut.

typedef unsigned long long ACS::Time

Time - absolute time in 100 ns since 1582-10-15 00:00:00 see OMG Time Service Specification, ftp://ftp.omg.org/pub/docs/formal/97-12-21.pdf. Currently, Time is handled as longlong.

typedef long long ACS::TimeInterval

TimeInterval - difference between two absolute time points.

typedef sequence<TimeInterval> ACS::TimeIntervalSeq

A sequence of TimeInterval. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef sequence<Time> ACS::TimeSeq

A sequence of Time. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

typedef unsigned long long ACS::uLongLong

A 64-bit unsigned integer

typedef sequence<uLongLong> ACS::uLongLongSeq

A sequence of uLongLong. See stringSeq for more on sequences.

Enumeration Type Documentation

enum ACS::Bool

Enumerator:

acsFALSE
acsTRUE

enum ACS::ComponentStates

Component state enumeration. Component starts it's lifecycle in state NEW. During objects life it cycles though following states in prescribed order, possibly skipping the nasty ones:

COMPSTATE_NEW
COMPSTATE_INITIALIZING
COMPSTATE_INITIALIZED
COMPSTATE_OPERATIONAL
COMPSTATE_ERROR
COMPSTATE_DESTROYING
COMPSTATE_ABORTING
COMPSTATE_DEFUNCT

Object lifecycle can be aborted anytime, abort sequence prescribes next order.

COMPSTATE_ABORTING
COMPSTATE_DEFUNCT

The COMPSTATE_UNKNOWN signals an abnormal situation, or a situation where it is not possible to read/retrieve the state

There also exists an error state:

COMPSTATE_ERROR

Note: recycable objects are allowed to be initialized again after COMPSTATE_DESTROYING or COMPSTATE_ERROR states.

Enumerator:

COMPSTATE_NEW
COMPSTATE_INITIALIZING
COMPSTATE_INITIALIZED
COMPSTATE_OPERATIONAL
COMPSTATE_ERROR
COMPSTATE_DESTROYING
COMPSTATE_ABORTING
COMPSTATE_DEFUNCT
COMPSTATE_UNKNOWN

enum ACS::Condition

Possible state conditions of a physical device. The names correspond to colours of typical LEDs.

Enumerator:

RED	RED implies the physical device is in an error state.
YELLOW	YELLOW implies the physical device is in a caution state.
GREEN	RED implies the physical device is in an OK state.
GREY	RED implies the physical device is turned off.
