Member Function Documentation

bool UI::Dialogs::ComplexDialogImpl::checkValidity

(

)

[private, virtual, slot]

this function is called when the user clicks the OK button in the Function Dialog. checks whether all fields are filled in, whether the given function is valid C++ syntax, ie. whether it compiles, and whether the compiled code links into a dynamic library. as a side effect, it generates this library. finally, it checks whether the library can be loaded. if so, it accepts the input. also, this function creates a directory structure "plugins/real" under the resource directory and changes the CWD to that folder for the duration of checkValidity (). the name for this function is chosen rather unfortunately, i guess.

Returns:

success

Here is the caller graph for this function:

bool UI::Dialogs::ComplexDialogImpl::functionPresent

(

const QString &

libName

)

[private, virtual]

loads the dynamic library given by libName, if it exists and can be loaded. then it checks whether a function named f () is present. if so, returns true. else borks with an error message.

Parameters:

libName

filename for the selected DLL

Returns:

success

Implements UI::Dialogs::PluginCreator.

bool UI::Dialogs::ComplexDialogImpl::loadFunction

(

)

[private, virtual, slot]

display and load the selected DLL into current address space loads a dynamic library, which can be selected by the user on a QFileDialog. calls loadFunction () below. see there.

Returns:

success (?)

Implements UI::Dialogs::PluginCreator.

Referenced by ComplexDialogImpl().

Here is the caller graph for this function:

void UI::Dialogs::ComplexDialogImpl::writeSource

(

)

[private, virtual]

write a C++ source file, containing the given function and some framework to make it compilable by g++ (there is currently no support for other compilers). the resulting file "<function-name>.C" defines the function f () and the function symbolic (), which returns the function in symbolic terms, not in C++ syntax.

Implements UI::Dialogs::PluginCreator.
