OEOptions

class OEOptions

The OEOptions is an abstract base class. The Options represent a collection of OEParameter class that defines the set of parameters associated with settings of various objects or calculations.

Code Examples

The OEOptions class defines the following public methods:

AddDetail

bool AddDetail(const std::string &detail)

Adds a line to the detailed description of the options.

AddOption

OEOptions* AddOption(const OEOption&)

Adds a copy of the specified options as sub-options to this options.

AddParameter

OEParameter* AddParameter(const OEParameter&)

Adds a copy of the specified parameter to the options.

AddParameterPrefix

bool AddParameterPrefix(const std::string& suffix)

Add the specified prefix to the name of all the parameters.

AddParameterSuffix

bool AddParameterSuffix(const std::string& suffix)

Add the specified suffix to the name of all the parameters.

Clear

void Clear()

Removes all parameters and sub-options.

DeleteOptions

bool DeleteOptions(OEOptions&)

Deletes the specified sub-options, if it belongs to this options.

DeleteParameter

bool DeleteParameter(OEParameter& param)

Deletes the specified parameter, if it belongs to this options.

FindDupParameters

OEIterBase<OEParameter>* FindDupParameters(const bool visibleOnly = true)
OEIterBase<const OEParameter>* FindDupParameters(const bool visibleOnly = true) const

Returns duplicate parameters. Two parameters are considered duplicates if they have a common name. If visibleOnly is set to True, parameters with visibility OEParamVisibility::Hidden are ignored from this list. This operation is always recursive to the associated sub-options.

GetBrief

std::string GetBrief() const

See SetBrief method.

GetDetail

OEIterBase<const std::string> *GetDetail() const

See AddDetail method.

GetName

std::string GetName() const

See SetName method.

GetOption

OEOptions* GetOption(const std::string& name)
const OEOptions* GetOption(const std::string& name) const

Get the sub-options with the specified name. Returns a NULL pointer if a sub-options with specified name does not exist.

GetOptions

OEIterBase<const OEOptions>* GetOptions(const bool recursive = true) const
OEIterBase<OEOptions>* GetOptions(const bool recursive = true)

Get the sub-options of this options. A value of true for recursive compiles all the sub-options from the subsequent sub-options.

GetOrderPriority

int GetOrderPriority() const

See SetOrderPriority method.

GetParameter

OEParameter* GetParameter(const std::string& name)
const OEParameter* GetParameter(const std::string& name) const

Get the parameter with the specified name. Returns a NULL pointer if a parameter with specified name does not exist.

GetParameters

OEIterBase<const OEParameter>* GetParameters(const bool recursive = true) const
OEIterBase<OEParameter>* GetParameters(const bool recursive = true)
OEIterBase<const OEParameter>* GetParameters(const std::string& name, const bool recursive = true) const
OEIterBase<OEParameter>* GetParameters(const std::string& name, const bool recursive = true)

Get the parameters from this options. If a name is specified only parameters with the specified name are provided. A value of true for recursive compiles all the parameters from the subsequent sub-options.

HasDupParameters

bool HasDupParameters(const bool visibleOnly = true) const

Check if a there are duplicate parameters in this options. Two parameters are considered duplicates if they have a common name. If visibleOnly is set to True, parameters with visibility OEParamVisibility::Hidden are ignored from this check. This operation is always recursive to the associated sub-options.

HasOption

bool HasOption(const std::string& name) const

Check if a sub-options with the specified name exists in the options.

HasParameter

bool HasParameter(const std::string& name) const

Check if a parameter with the specified name (or alias) exists in the options.

SetBrief

bool SetBrief(std::string brief)

Sets the brief description of the Options.

SetName

bool SetName(std::string name)

Sets the name of the Options.

SetOrderPriority

bool SetOrderPriority(int order)

Sets the order priority of the Options, which is used to control the order Options appear in help lists. Default: 0

SetParameterVisibility

bool SetParameterVisibility(const unsigned visibility)
bool SetParameterVisibility(const std::string& name, const unsigned visibility)

Sets the visibility of the parameters to the specified value. This operation is always recursive to the associated sub-options. Valid settings are defined in the OEParamVisibility namespace.

UpdateValues

bool UpdateValues(const OEOptions& opts)

Update parameters values of this options, from the parameter values of the soecified options. Two parameters are considered same if they have a common name and data type. This operation is always recursive to the associated sub-options.
