Detailed Description

ForwardingAction is the base class for the action classes that read and send arguments, such as SetPropertyAction or DispatchMessageAction.

ForwardingAction contains functionality to read arguments from sources, such as messages, properties or set values, and allows the inheriting action class to use these values. This usually means sending messages or setting values of properties.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ForwardingAction	(	Domain	domain,
		long	handle,
		Metaclass	metaclass
	)

protected

Wraps a given native ForwardingAction.

Called by KanziObject#connectObject(long) when connecting to a native action.

Parameters

domain	UI Domain where this action belongs.
handle	Native object that is backing this action.
metaclass	Metaclass data for this action.

Member Function Documentation

static <Derived extends Action> ObjectRef<Derived> createDerived	(	Domain	domain,
		String	name,
		Metaclass	metaclass
	)

staticprotected

Creates a derived class instance.

Call this method as part of the create method for a derived class.

Parameters

domain	UI Domain where this action belongs.
name	Name of the action
metaclass	Metaclass data of the action.

Returns: An ObjectRef that holds the created instance.

void onDelayedInvoke ( )

protected

Callback called by Kanzi when the action is invoked by trigger with delay, after the delay duration expires.

Use this to execute an action with delay.

void onInvoke ( )

protected

Callback called by Kanzi when the action is invoked by its trigger without delay.

Use this to execute an action without delay.

void onPrepareDelayedInvoke ( )

protected

Callback called by Kanzi when the action is invoked by its trigger with delay.

Use this to prepare for delayed execution.

void onUnprepareDelayedInvoke ( )

protected

Kanzi calls this callback when an action is invoked by trigger with delay, after Action#onDelayedInvoke() callback, or when it cancels a delayed execution.

An example of cancellation of delayed execution is when you detach the action before the execution is done. Use this function to roll back any preparations made for a delayed execution.
