@section{description}
|
|
|
|
AbstractResponderFunc is the abstract superclass of responder funcs, which are classes which register one or more functions to respond to a particular type of input. It provides some common functionality such as introspection. Its two main subclasses are link::Classes/OSCFunc::, and link::Classes/MIDIFunc::. By default responder funcs do not persist beyond Cmd-. (see link::#-permanent:: below).
|
|
|
|
Instances will register with a dispatcher (an instance of a subclass of link::Classes/AbstractDispatcher::), which will actually dispatch incoming messages to an instance's Function(s).

allFuncProxies
|
|
Get all current instances of this classes concrete subclasses, sorted by type.
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}
|
|
An link::Classes/IdentityDictionary::.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
allEnabled
|
|
As allFuncProxies above, but only return those instances currently listening for input.
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}
|
|
An link::Classes/IdentityDictionary::.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
allDisabled
|
|
As allFuncProxies above, but only return those instances currently not listening for input.
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}

An link::Classes/IdentityDictionary::.

|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
func
|
|
Get or set this objects response function.
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}
|
|
The getter returns a link::Classes/Function:: or similar object.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
srcID
|
|
Get this object's source.
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}
|
|
The return type will depend on subclass. For link::Classes/OSCFunc:: this will be a link::Classes/NetAddr::, for link::Classes/MIDIFunc:: a UID. This can can be nil, which indicates that the object will respond to any source.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
enabled
|
|
Check if this object is currently responding to incoming messages.
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}
|
|
A link::Classes/Boolean::.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
dispatcher
|
|
et this object's dispatcher. This is the object which matches incoming messages with responder funcs. Instances can use custom dispatchers to support arbitrary matching schemes.
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}
|
|
An instance of an appropriate subclass of link::Classes/AbstractDispatcher::. (The return type will depend on subclass.)
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
permanent
|
|
Get or set whether this responder func is persists when the user executes Cmd-. If false this will be disabled and removed from the global lists. The default is false.
|
|
|
|
@section{argument}
|
|
bool
|
|
A link::Classes/Boolean:: indicating if this object is permanent.
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}
|
|
The getter returns a link::Classes/Boolean::.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
enable
|
|
Enable this object to receive incoming messages. This is done automatically at creation time.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
disable
|
|
Stop this object from receiving incoming messages.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
add
|
|
Add a new function to the list of functions which will be executed when this object receives an incoming message.
|
|
|
|
@section{argument}
|
|
newFunc
|
|
A link::Classes/Function:: or similar object to be added.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
remove
|
|
Remove a function from the list of functions which will be executed when this object receives an incoming message.
|
|
|
|
@section{argument}
|
|
removeFunc
|
|
The link::Classes/Function:: to be removed.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
gui
|
|
Open a subclass specific GUI. (Not yet implemented)
|
|
|
|
@section{returns}
|
|
The GUI object.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
oneShot
|
|
Indicate that this object should execute only once and then free itself.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
fix
|
|
A synonym for link::#permanent::
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
free
|
|
Disable this object and remove it from the global lists. This should be done when you are finished using this object.
|
|
|
|
@section{METHOD}
|
|
clear
|
|
Remove all active functions from this object's function list.
