Detailed Description

describes a data type based on a hashdecl

Member Function Documentation

◆ acceptsValue()

auto DataProvider::AbstractDataField::acceptsValue ( auto  value)

returns the value if the value can be assigned to the type

Parameters
valuethe value to assign to the type
Returns
the value to be assigned; can be converted by the type

◆ getInputInfo()

hash< DataFieldInfo > DataProvider::AbstractDataField::getInputInfo ( )

returns information about the field as an input field

the default_value key is not returned, and the type key returns only input information

◆ getOrNothingType()

AbstractDataField DataProvider::AbstractDataField::getOrNothingType ( )

returns a field with an "or nothing" type equivalent to the current type

The base class method returns the same field; this method must be overridden in child classes to return a field with a usable "or nothing" type

Returns
a field with an "or nothing" type equivalent to the current type

◆ getSoftType()

AbstractDataField DataProvider::AbstractDataField::getSoftType ( )

returns a field with a "soft" type equivalent to the current type

The base class method returns the same field; this method must be overridden in child classes to return a field with a usable "soft" type

Returns
a field with a "soft" type equivalent to the current type

◆ setOption()

DataProvider::AbstractDataField::setOption ( string  opt,
auto  value 
)

sets the given option on the field's type

Parameters
optthe option to set
valuethe value to set
Exceptions
TYPE-OPTION-ERRORinvalid option or invalid option type

◆ setOptions()

DataProvider::AbstractDataField::setOptions ( hash< auto >  options)

sets the given options on the field's type

Parameters
optionsa hash of options, if any options match supported options for this type, they are set
Exceptions
TYPE-OPTION-ERRORoption value has an invalid type

◆ allowed_values_map

hash<string, bool> DataProvider::AbstractDataField::allowed_values_map
private

for enum fields; allowed values

only supported for types that convert to a string
