Detailed Description

An ApplyPropertyAction sets a property to the requested value for as long as the condition is met in the DataTrigger that sets off this action.

When the trigger condition is no longer met, Kanzi rolls back the value of that property to the value before the action was applied, or to the value set while Kanzi was applying an ApplyPropertyAction. Use the ApplyPropertyAction only with a DataTrigger.

For example, when the value of a property changes from 5 to 9 while Kanzi is applying an ApplyPropertyAction on that property, when a DataTrigger that set off that action, rolls back that property value, the value is 9, and not 5.

When you want to set a value of a property only when a condition in a Trigger is met, always use a DataTrigger. For example, use one DataTrigger with an ApplyPropertyAction instead of any other trigger to set the value of a property when the condition in that trigger is met and another trigger to roll back the value of the same property when the condition in the first trigger is no longer met.

Since: Kanzi 3.9.0

Examples

To use an ApplyPropertyAction to set the value of a property when a condition in a DataTrigger is met:

        // Create an instance of an Apply Property action.
        auto action = ApplyPropertyAction::create(domain, "applyAction");
        // Set the path of the target node to which you want to add the Apply Property action.
        action->setProperty(ApplyPropertyAction::TargetObjectPathProperty, "targetNode");
        // Create a binding to configure how you want to set a property of the target node.
        action->addValueBinding(Variant(targetPropertyTargetValue), MyPropertyB, PropertyField::PropertyFieldWhole);
        // Create a condition expression for the Data Trigger.
        // Condition: sourceNode.MyPropertyA == m_sourcePropertyTriggeringValue.
        ExpressionBindingSource::ValueSourceContainer valueSources;
        valueSources.push_back(ObjectPropertyExpressionValueSource::create("sourceNode", MyPropertyA, PropertyFieldWhole));
        ExpressionBindingSource::BindingOperationContainer operations;
        operations.push_back(BindingExpressionOpCode(BindingExpressionArgumentTypeSourceRegister0, PropertyFieldWhole,
                                                     BindingExpressionArgumentTypeConstantRegister0, PropertyFieldWhole,
                                                     KZU_EXPRESSION_VALIDATOR_OPERATION_COMPARE_EQUAL, 0, PropertyFieldWhole));
        vector<Variant> constantRegisters;
        constantRegisters.emplace_back(m_sourcePropertyTriggeringValue);
        // Create an expression binding.
        auto binding = ExpressionBinding::create(operations, valueSources, constantRegisters, 2);
        // Create a Data Trigger, add the condition and the Apply Property action that you created earlier, and add the trigger to the Screen node.
        auto dataTrigger = DataTrigger::create(domain, "data trigger");
        dataTrigger->setConditionExpression(binding);
        dataTrigger->addAction(action);
        screen->addNodeComponent(dataTrigger);
        screen->attach();
        // Since the condition of the Data Trigger is not met, the property of the target node does not change.
        sourceNode->setProperty(MyPropertyA, m_sourcePropertySomeOtherValue1);
        assertEquals(targetPropertyDefaultValue, targetNode->getProperty(MyPropertyB));
        // Set the property of the source node to meet the condition. When the condition is met,
        // the trigger sets off the Apply Property action, and the action updates the property in the target node.
        sourceNode->setProperty(MyPropertyA, m_sourcePropertyTriggeringValue);
        assertEquals(targetPropertyTargetValue, targetNode->getProperty(MyPropertyB));
        // As soon as the condition of the Data Trigger is not met,
        // Kanzi rolls back the property in the target node to the value before the Apply Property action was applied.
        sourceNode->setProperty(MyPropertyA, m_sourcePropertySomeOtherValue2);
        assertEquals(targetPropertyDefaultValue, targetNode->getProperty(MyPropertyB));
