The minimal Orocos task. It has a state and an ExecutionEngine to process messages and user functions.
Definition at line 54 of file TaskCore.hpp.
Describes the different states a component can have. When a TaskContext is being constructed, it is in the Init state. After the construction ends, the component arrives in the PreOperational (additional configuration required) or the Stopped (ready to run) state. Invoking start() will make a transition to the Running state and stop() back to the Stopped state. The Running state executes updateHook(). Finally, there is an FatalError state, in which the component can enter by calling the protected method fatal(). In this state, the ExecutionEngine is stopped and updateHook() is no longer called. The object should then be disposed by a supervision system.
Next to the fatal error, one run-time error level is available in the Running state as well. This level allows 'automatic' recovery by the component in case the problem is temporal. In case of problems, one may call the protected method error() when the component is Running. The component will enter the RunTimeError state and will cause the errorHook() to be called instead of updateHook(). When recover() is called, this run-time error state is left and the nominal Running state is entered again.
In order to check if these transitions are allowed, hook functions are executed, which can be filled in by the component builder.

Call this method in a Running state to indicate a run-time error condition. errorHook() will be called instead of updateHook(). If the error condition is solved, call recover().

protectedvirtual |
Implement this method to contain code that must be executed in the RunTimeError state, instead of updateHook(). This allows you to specify the behaviour in an erroneous component. errorHook() is called as long as the component is not recover()'ed. After recover()'ed, the updateHook() is called again.

Call this method to indicate a run-time exception happend. First the TaskState is set to Exception. Next, if the taskstate was >= Running, stopHook() is called. Next, if the taskstate was >= Stopped, cleanupHook() is called. Finally, exceptionHook() is called. If any exception happens in exceptionHook(), fatal() is called.

Implement this method to contain code that must be executed when transitioning to the Exception state. This allows you to specify the last actions in an erroneous component, after stopHook() and cleanupHook() were called.

Returns the state this TaskCore is going to, or in case no transition is taking place, returns getTaskState(). For example, before start(), this function returns Stopped. During startHook(), it returns Running and after start() it also returns Running.
If getTaskState() != getTargetState, a transition is taking place.

Function where the user must insert his 'application' code. When the ExecutionEngine's Activity is a periodic, this function is called by the ExecutionEngine in each periodic step after all messages are processed. When it is executed by a non periodic activity, this function is called after a message is received and executed. It should not loop forever, since no commands or events are processed when this function executes. The default implementation is an empty function.
