Detailed Description

Part of an implementation of the Observable Observer pattern based on the example implementation in the GOF Patterns text.

Author:
Paul F. Kunz <Paul_Kunz@slac.stanford.edu>
Note:
Giulio Eulisse <giulio.eulisse@cern.ch> put this class in namespace hippodraw so that it wouldn't clash with a Corbra Observer and contributed all the code that needed changing.

Public Member Functions

 Observer ()
 The default constructor.
virtual void update (const Observable *)=0
 The update method.
virtual void willDelete (const Observable *)
 Notifies this Observer object that one of its Observable objects is about to be deleted.
virtual ~Observer ()
 The destructor.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Observer (  ) 

The default constructor.

Note:
Needs to be public because of SIP.

Definition at line 13 of file Observer.cxx.

~Observer (  )  [virtual]

The destructor.

Does nothing but keep compiler warning messages away.

Note:
Needs to be public because of SIP.

Definition at line 18 of file Observer.cxx.


Member Function Documentation

virtual void update ( const Observable  )  [pure virtual]

The update method.

This member function is called by the observed Observable when its state has changed The Command argument is optional and may be a null pointer.

Implemented in DataRep, DataSourceController, EpsView, ViewBase, OpenGLView, CutPlotter, PlotterBase, BinningProjector, DyHist1DProjector, DyHist2DProjector, NTupleProjector, Profile2DProjector, ProfileProjector, ProjectorBase, ObserverWrap, QtView, QtViewImp, QtViewWidget, and RootController.

Referenced by Observable::notifyObservers().

void willDelete ( const Observable  )  [virtual]

Notifies this Observer object that one of its Observable objects is about to be deleted.

Since most Observable objects are owned by its Observer, it is the Observer that issued the delete. Thus the default implementation here does nothing. Derived classes that observe objects owned by another should implement this method to remove the Observable from the list they are observing.

Reimplemented in FunctionRep, DataSourceController, ViewBase, CutPlotter, TextPlotter, BinningProjector, DyHist1DProjector, DyHist2DProjector, NTupleProjector, Profile2DProjector, ProfileProjector, and RootController.
