Detailed Description

MessageArguments is the base class for arguments passed in messages.

An instance of MessageArguments together with an instance of MessageType forms a Kanzi message. In Kanzi when you dispatch a message, you dispatch a message of certain type and arguments.

While MessageArguments is a base class where you can inherit your own specialized arguments, MessageType is a templated class which takes message argument type as its template parameter. In practice this means that each MessageType is linked with a certain MessageArguments type. You can derive your own arguments class or use the MessageArguments base class. Note that MessageArguments as a base class carries only the basic message information, such as the timestamp and source of the message. To dispatch any other data with your messages, inherit your own message arguments class.

You can link a message type with only one type of message arguments, but you can use a certain type of message arguments with multiple message types. See MessageType.

Returns the value of an argument using AbstractPropertyType.

Parameters
argumentTypeThe AbstractPropertyType argument whose value to get.
variantThe variant where to store the message argument value.
Returns

void kanzi::MessageArguments::setAbstractArgument ( AbstractPropertyType  argumentType,
const Variant variant 
)

Sets the value of an argument using AbstractPropertyType.

Parameters
argumentTypeThe AbstractPropertyType argument whose value to set.
variantThe variant whose value to store to the message argument value.

◆ isFrom()

bool kanzi::MessageArguments::isFrom ( const Node source) const

Sets the handling status for a message.

Parameters
handledThe new handling status.

◆ isHandled()

bool kanzi::MessageArguments::isHandled ( ) const

Returns the message type of these message arguments as an AbstractMessageType instance.

Returns
The AbstractMessageType of these message arguments.

◆ setSource()

void kanzi::MessageArguments::setSource ( Node source)

Parameters
validThe validity of the message.

◆ isValid()

bool kanzi::MessageArguments::isValid ( ) const
inline

Returns whether a message is valid.

Returns
If the message is valid, returns true, otherwise false.
