Member Function Documentation

void build_gradient_parameter_dictionary ( CMap< TParameter *, CSGObject * > *  dict )

inherited

Builds a dictionary of all parameters in SGObject as well of those of SGObjects that are parameters of this object. Dictionary maps parameters to the objects that own them.

Parameters

dict	dictionary of parameters to be built.

Definition at line 597 of file SGObject.cpp.

CSGObject * clone ( )

virtualinherited

Creates a clone of the current object. This is done via recursively traversing all parameters, which corresponds to a deep copy. Calling equals on the cloned object always returns true although none of the memory of both objects overlaps.

Returns

an identical copy of the given object, which is disjoint in memory. NULL if the clone fails. Note that the returned object is SG_REF'ed

Definition at line 714 of file SGObject.cpp.

CSGObject * deep_copy ( ) const

virtualinherited

A deep copy. All the instance variables will also be copied.

Definition at line 198 of file SGObject.cpp.

bool equals ( CSGObject *  other, float64_t  accuracy = 0.0, bool  tolerant = false  )

virtualinherited

Recursively compares the current SGObject to another one. Compares all registered numerical parameters, recursion upon complex (SGObject) parameters. Does not compare pointers!

May be overwritten but please do with care! Should not be necessary in most cases.

Parameters

other	object to compare with
accuracy	accuracy to use for comparison (optional)
tolerant	allows linient check on float equality (within accuracy)

Returns

true if all parameters were equal, false if not

Definition at line 618 of file SGObject.cpp.
