Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class ion::base::EnvironmentSetting< T >

An EnvironmentSetting is a Setting can take its initial value from the named system environment variable passed to its constructor.

Note that the value of the EnvironmentSetting does not change if the environment variable changes after construction.

Definition at line 305 of file setting.h.

Member Typedef Documentation

typedef std::function<void(SettingBase* setting)> ion::base::SettingBase::Listener
inherited

A function that is called when the value changes.

Definition at line 46 of file setting.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename T>
ion::base::EnvironmentSetting< T >::EnvironmentSetting ( const std::string &  setting_name,
const std::string &  env_var_name,
const T default_value,
const std::string &  doc_string 
)
inline

Creates a new setting with the passed setting_name and attempts to set its initial value from the environment variable env_var_name.

If the variable does not exist or cannot be converted to type T, then the setting takes on the passed default value.

Definition at line 311 of file setting.h.

Member Function Documentation

void ion::base::SettingBase::EnableListener ( const std::string &  key,
bool  enable 
)
inherited

Enables or disables the listener identified by key, if one exists.

Definition at line 40 of file setting.cc.

template<typename T>
bool ion::base::Setting< T >::FromString ( const std::string &  str)
inlineoverridevirtualinherited

Parses the passed string to set the value of this and returns whether the parsing was successful.

If the parsing does not succeed then nothing should change in this.

Implements ion::base::SettingBase.

void ion::base::SettingBase::RegisterListener ( const std::string &  key,
const Listener listener 
)
inherited

Adds a function that will be called when this setting's value changes.

The function is identified by the passed key. The same key must be used to remove the listener.

Definition at line 35 of file setting.cc.

void ion::base::SettingBase::SetTypeDescriptor ( const std::string &  desc)
inlineinherited

Sets/returns a string containing information about the Setting's type.

This string can be used, for example, in an interactive program to present a specialized interface for displaying or modifying the settings. See the remote::SettingHandler documentation for examples.

Returns a string version of this setting.

The same string may be passed to FromString to reconstruct an identical setting.

void ion::base::SettingBase::UnregisterListener ( const std::string &  key)
inherited

Removes the listener identified by key, if one exists.
