Detailed Description

The dimeSection class is the superclass for all section classes.

Currently supported sections are:

• Header (dimeHeaderSection)
• Classes (dimeClassSection)
• Tables (dimeTableSection)
• Blocks (dimeBlockSection)
• Entities (dimeEntititySection)
• Objects (dimeObjectSection)

Member Function Documentation

countRecords()

int dimeSection::countRecords ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the number of records in this section.

Implemented in dimeBlocksSection, dimeClassesSection, dimeEntitiesSection, dimeHeaderSection, dimeObjectsSection, dimeTablesSection, and dimeUnknownSection.

createSection()

dimeSection * dimeSection::createSection ( const char *const sectionname, dimeMemHandler * memhandler )

static

Static function used to create the correct section object from a text string.

isOfType()

bool dimeSection::isOfType ( const int thetypeid ) const

virtual

Returns true if the object is of type typeid or is inherited from it. Function in base class checks whether thetypeid equals the virtual dimeBase::typeId() value or equals dimeBaseType. Must be implemented by all subclasses that are superclasses of other classes, and should check if thetypeid equals its typeId, and then call its parent's isOfType function. Leaf-classes do not have to implement this method.

Reimplemented from dimeBase.

read()

bool dimeSection::read ( dimeInput *const file )

pure virtual

Implemented in dimeBlocksSection, and dimeTablesSection.

typeId()

int dimeSection::typeId ( ) const

pure virtual

Must be implemented by all subclasses, and should return an unique id for that class.

Implements dimeBase.

Implemented in dimeBlocksSection, dimeClassesSection, dimeEntitiesSection, dimeHeaderSection, dimeObjectsSection, dimeTablesSection, and dimeUnknownSection.

write()

bool dimeSection::write ( dimeOutput *const file )

pure virtual

Implemented in dimeBlocksSection.
