Detailed Description

Base abstract class for mode manager components for the punctual action manager.

A punctual action mode manager handles one single strategy, which is represented by a set of punctual action components. To every operational mode, the telemetry mode manager associates a set of punctual actions. Client access the items in this set through four iteration methods: first, next, isIterationFinished, and getPunctualAction.

This is an abstract class because it specifies neither the implementation mechanism for the set of punctual actions nor the mode update mechanism.

Todo:

Create a class DC_FSMPunctualActionModeManager where the mode is driven by an FSM. Same thing should be done for the TelemetryModeManager

Member Function Documentation

virtual void PunctualActionModeManager::first (  void   )  [pure virtual]

Iteration method to iterate through the items in the set of punctual actions applicable to the current operational mode. This method should be used jointly with methods: next, isIterationFinished and getIterationPunctualAction. Taken together, these methods allow all the items in the currently applicable set of punctual actions to be scanned. During an iteration cycle, an internal pointer, the iteration pointer, is made to scan over all the items in the currently applicable set of telemetry packets. The item currently pointed at by the iteration counter can be retrieved through method getIterationPunctualAction. Thus, a typical iteration cycle might be organized as follows: for (first(); !isIterationFinished(); next()) { pItem = getIterationPunctualAction(); . . . // process pItem } See also: #getIterationItem Implemented in PunctualActionListModeManager.

virtual PunctualAction* PunctualActionModeManager::getIterationPunctualAction (  void   )  [pure virtual]

Return the punctual action item pointed at by the iterator. This method is a type-safe wrapper for method getIteratorItem in the superclass. See also: ListModeManager#getIterationItem Returns: the punctual action item pointed at by the iterator Implemented in PunctualActionListModeManager.

virtual bool PunctualActionModeManager::isIterationFinished (  void   )  [pure virtual]

Iteration method to be used in conjunction with methods first and next. This method should only be used as part of an iteration cycle. The result of calling it before ever calling first is undefined. See also: first Returns: true if the end of the iteration has been reached, false otherwise Implemented in PunctualActionListModeManager.

virtual void PunctualActionModeManager::next (  void   )  [pure virtual]

Iteration method to be used in conjunction with methods first and isIterationFinished. See also: first Implemented in PunctualActionListModeManager.
