Detailed Description

A Component for periodically reporting Component Port contents to a human readable text format. The default format is a table with a header.

It can report to any data format, using the 'addMarshaller' function, which is typically done in sub classes of this component.

Configuration: The ReportingComponent is configured using its properties. For example, to enable writing a header or not. The ReportData struct describes which ports and peer components need to be monitored. You need to load properties into this struct (see RTT::Marshalling service). This struct can be filled in as such:

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
     <!DOCTYPE properties SYSTEM "cpf.dtd">
     <properties>
        <!-- ... other component properties .. -->

        <struct name="ReportData" type="PropertyBag">
           <!-- Monitor all ports of a Component : -->
           <simple name="Component" type="string"><description></description><value>ComponentX</value></simple>

           <!-- Monitor a single Data or base::Buffer-Port of another Component : -->
           <simple name="Port" type="string"><description></description><value>ComponentY.PortZ</value></simple>
           <!-- add as many lines as desired... -->
        </struct>
     </properties>

Member Typedef Documentation

typedef boost::tuple<std::string, RTT::base::DataSourceBase::shared_ptr, std::string,RTT::base::PropertyBase*,RTT::base::InputPortInterface*,bool,bool> OCL::ReportingComponent::DTupple [protected]

tuple that describes each sample. Uses get<N>() to read it: @0 The qualified name of the data (componentname.portname) @1 The data source of the data. Always returns the last value. @2 A copy command to copy from this data source to another one @3 The target data source for the copy operation @4 The type of the data, "Data" (props and attrs) or "Port". @5 'newdata': The new data flag. Flags if the DataSource contains new data. @6 'tracked': True if this source may lead to additional data. If false, the source in itself will not cause to a re-scan. Used in copydata() to allow ports to be rescanned, while props and attrs never cause this (they always have newdata, but this is ignored).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

OCL::ReportingComponent::ReportingComponent ( std::string name = "Reporting" )

Set up a component for reporting.

Member Function Documentation

bool OCL::ReportingComponent::addMarshaller	(	RTT::marsh::MarshallInterface *	headerM,
		RTT::marsh::MarshallInterface *	bodyM
	)

Adds a Plugin to receive incomming data. The marshallers become owned by this component.

Parameters:

header	A marshaller which writes out a header when this component is started. May be null (0).
body	A marshaller wich will get periodically a serialisation request to process incomming data. May be null(0).

example: addMarshaller( new HeaderMarshaller(), new ContentsMarshaller() );
