Member Function Documentation

virtual vlNameValuePairBase* vlNameValuePairBase::copySelf (   )  const [pure virtual]

Implemented in vlNameValuePair< DataType >.

virtual std::string vlNameValuePairBase::desc (   )  const [pure virtual]

Implemented in vlNameValuePair< DataType >.

virtual bool vlNameValuePairBase::isDirty (   )  const [pure virtual]

The dirty bit is set with every call to set() and is reset every time resetDirty() is called. This can be used to track modifications to the data. Returns: true or false Implemented in vlNameValuePair< DataType >. Referenced by vlVarList::isDirty().

virtual bool vlNameValuePairBase::isValid (   )  const [pure virtual]

This valid flag indicates if the data is logically valid. The setting and resetting of this flag is thus in the hands of the user. By default, it is set to true. Implemented in vlNameValuePair< DataType >. Referenced by vlVarList::isValid().

virtual std::string vlNameValuePairBase::name (   )  const [pure virtual]

Implemented in vlNameValuePair< DataType >.

virtual void vlNameValuePairBase::resetDirty (   )  [pure virtual]

Implemented in vlNameValuePair< DataType >. Referenced by vlVarList::resetDirty().

virtual void vlNameValuePairBase::setValid (  bool  valid = true  )  [pure virtual]

Implemented in vlNameValuePair< DataType >. Referenced by vlVarList::setValid().

virtual const char* vlNameValuePairBase::typeInfo (   )  const [pure virtual]

This is the best way to compare all datatypes. Note that datatype names are not constant across compilers. Implemented in vlNameValuePair< DataType >. Referenced by vlVarList::getNameValuePair(), and vlVarList::getTypeInfo().
