Member Function Documentation

void VuoEditorComposition::blockDisablingOfPopoverForPort

(

VuoRendererPort *

port

)

Prevents the popover associated with the provided port from being disabled until unblockDisablingOfPopoverForPort() is called for the same port.

In the meantime, no other port will be permitted to display its non-detached popover.

void VuoEditorComposition::disablePortPopovers

(

VuoRendererNode *

node = NULL

)

Disables the port popovers associated with this composition.

If an input node is provided, only popovers whose ports belong to that node are disabled.

QGraphicsItem * VuoEditorComposition::findNearbyComponent	(	QPointF	scenePos,
		targetComponentType	targetType = VuoEditorComposition::targetTypeAny,
		bool	limitPortCollisionRange = true
	)

Returns a pointer to the component (port, cable, or node) that should be operated upon if the user were to click at position scenePos, or NULL if no component is within collision range.

The input targetType specifies what type of component to search for. Options are: VuoEditorComposition::targetTypePort (to include only ports) VuoEditorComposition::targetTypeAny (to include ports, cables, and nodes) If limitPortCollisionRange is true, only the port circle and constant value flag, not the port's boundingRect as a whole, are taken into account for purposes of collision detection.

QRectF VuoEditorComposition::internalItemsBoundingRect

(

)

const

Calculates and returns the bounding rect of all internal composition components on the scene.

This excludes published cables.

bool VuoEditorComposition::isRunning

(

void

)

Returns true if the composition is running.

This function must not be called on runCompositionQueue.

void VuoEditorComposition::receivedTelemetryInputPortUpdated ( string  portIdentifier, bool  receivedEvent, bool  receivedData, string  dataAsString  )

virtual

This delegate method is invoked every time any input port receives an event or data.

Implementation of the virtual VuoRunnerDelegate function.

Implements VuoRunnerDelegate.

void VuoEditorComposition::receivedTelemetryOutputPortUpdated ( string  portIdentifier, bool  sentData, string  dataAsString  )

virtual

This delegate method is invoked every time any output port conducts or fires an event.

Implementation of the virtual VuoRunnerDelegate function.

Implements VuoRunnerDelegate.

void VuoEditorComposition::run

(

string

compositionSnapshot

)

Asynchronously compiles, links, and runs a composition created from the snapshot.

Assumes the composition is not already running.

void VuoEditorComposition::stop

(

void

)

Asynchronously stops the running composition.

Assumes the composition is running.

void VuoEditorComposition::unblockDisablingOfPopoverForPort

(

VuoRendererPort *

port

)

Removes the bar against disabling the popover for the provided port, if applicable, and schedules the popover to be disabled if the cursor is no longer within the extended hover range of the port.

Other ports will once again be permitted to display their own non-detached popovers.

void VuoEditorComposition::updateRunningComposition	(	string	oldCompositionSnapshot,
		string	newCompositionSnapshot
	)

Asynchronously replaces the running composition (if any) with a composition created from newCompositionSnapshot.

Parameters

oldCompositionSnapshot	A snapshot of the currently running composition (which may include minor changes made since the composition was last run/updated, for which the running composition did not need to be updated).
newCompositionSnapshot	A snapshot of the composition to run.
