function IsReadable#

virtual bool IsReadable() const

Indicates whether the parameter is readable.

Return: Returns true if the parameter is readable.

Error Safety:

Does not throw C++ exceptions.

Reimplements: Pylon::CArrayParameter::IsReadable

function IsWritable#

virtual bool IsWritable() const

Indicates whether the parameter is writable.

Return: Returns true if the parameter is writable.

Error Safety:

Does not throw C++ exceptions.

Reimplements: Pylon::CArrayParameter::IsWritable

function GetInfo#

virtual String_t GetInfo(
    EParameterInfo info
)

Gets the parameter information.

Parameters:

  • info The type information to return.

Return: Returns the parameter information.

Thread Safety:

The method accesses the parameter multiple times. These accesses are not synchronized by a lock.

Error Safety:

Throws an exception if no node is attached. Can throw exceptions if the retrieval of the information fails.

Reimplements: Pylon::CArrayParameter::GetInfo

function GetInfoOrDefault#

virtual String_t GetInfoOrDefault(
    EParameterInfo info,
    const String_t defaultInfo
)

Gets the parameter information if the parameter is attached to a node.

Parameters:

  • info The type information to return. Otherwise returns the default information. This method is useful if you want to display parameter information and handle the case that some parameters are not available for a device.
  • defaultInfo The default information returned if the parameter is not attached to a node.

Return: Returns the parameter information if the parameter is attached to a node. Otherwise returns the default information.

Thread Safety:

The method accesses the parameter multiple times. These accesses are not synchronized by a lock.

Error Safety:

Can throw exceptions if the retrieval of the information fails.

Reimplements: Pylon::CArrayParameter::GetInfoOrDefault

See IsValid().

function ToStringOrDefault#

virtual String_t ToStringOrDefault(
    const String_t & defaultValue
)

Gets the parameter value as string if the parameter is readable.

Parameters:

  • defaultValue The default value returned if the parameter is not readable.

Return: Returns the parameter value if the parameter is readable. Otherwise returns the default value.

Thread Safety:

The method accesses the parameter multiple times. These accesses are not synchronized by a lock.

Error Safety:

Can throw exceptions if reading the value fails.

Reimplements: Pylon::CArrayParameter::ToStringOrDefault

Otherwise returns the default value.
