Member Function Documentation

virtual YMLConnection* YMLEntityFactory::createConnection (  YMLPort *  inPort, YMLPort *  outPort )  [pure virtual]

This function is called to create a resolved YMLConnection. YMLConnections go directly from node to node with out intermeadiate ports. YMLConnections are created is a second pass after all nodes, netowrks, and links are been added. Parameters: inPort  The incomming port. outPort  The outgoing port. Returns: A pointer to a newly constructed YMLConnection. Implemented in PNYMLEntityFactory, and DefaultYMLEntityFactory.

virtual YMLNetwork* YMLEntityFactory::createNetwork (  const char *  name, const char *  className )  [pure virtual]

Create a new YMLNetwork entity. Parameters: name  The name of the network. className  The network class. This can be used to decide which type of YMLNetwork to create. Returns: A pointer to the YMLNetwork. Implemented in PNYMLEntityFactory, and DefaultYMLEntityFactory.

virtual YMLNode* YMLEntityFactory::createNode (  const char *  name, const char *  className )  [pure virtual]

Create a new YMLNode enity. Parameters: name  The name of the node. className  The node class. This can be used to decide which type of YMLNode to create. Returns: Implemented in PNYMLEntityFactory, and DefaultYMLEntityFactory.

virtual YMLLink* YMLEntityFactory::createLink (  const char *  object1, const char *  port1, const char *  object2, const char *  port2 )  [pure virtual]

Create a new YMLLink entity. It is not necessary to actually connect the objects in implementations of this function. Parameters: object1  The name of the first node or network. port1  The name of the first port. object2  The name of the second node or network. port2  The name of the second port. Returns: A pointer to the newly created YMLNode. Implemented in PNYMLEntityFactory, and DefaultYMLEntityFactory.

virtual YMLPort* YMLEntityFactory::createPort (  const char *  name  )  [pure virtual]

Create a new YMLPort entity. Parameters: name  The port name. Returns: A pointer to the newly created YMLPort. Implemented in PNYMLEntityFactory, and DefaultYMLEntityFactory.
