Detailed Description

The class represents a single taxonomy choice entry in the taxonomy file.

Also get yourselves acquainted with the base class ms_customproperty. It facilitates the following tasks:

Retrieving an unsupported property.
Retrieving a raw/text/XML property representation.
Checking for existence of a certain property rather than dealing with its default value.
Accessing commented lines in a section.

More functionality is described in the documentation for ms_customproperty.

Member Function Documentation

◆ appendProperty()

void appendProperty	(	const char *	name,

bFirstPlace	forces a new property to be put on top of the list.

◆ appendText()

void appendText	(	const char *	l,
		const bool	bFirstPlace = `false`
	)

inherited

Adds a new non-parsed property.

All property elements will be retrieved from the first parameter. Before calling this method, a specific default delimiter can be set using setDefaultDelimiter().

Parameters

l	raw text representation of the property to be parsed.
bFirstPlace	forces a new property to be put on top of the list.

◆ delProp()

void delProp ( const char * str )

inherited

Deletes all properties with the specified name.

Parameters

str	Property name to find a match and then delete.

◆ delPropStart()

void delPropStart ( const char * str )

inherited

Deletes all properties whose names start with the given string.

Parameters

str	Beginning a first part of the property name to delete.

◆ findProperty()

int findProperty	(	const char *	name,
		const int	startFrom = `0`
	)		const

inherited

Searches the list for a property with the given name.

If no property found with the given name -1 will be returned. There may be several property entries in the list with the same name.

Parameters

name	a property name to be found.
startFrom	a minimal property index to start search from.

Returns: a property index or -1 if no property found.

◆ findPropertyBeginning()

int findPropertyBeginning	(	const char *	nameBeginning,
		const int	startFrom = `0`
	)		const

inherited

Searches the list for a property with the partially matching name.

If no property found with the given name part -1 will be returned. There may be several property entries in the list whose names start with the given string.

Parameters

nameBeginning	first part of a property name to be found.
startFrom	a minimal property index to start search from.

Returns: a property index or -1 if no property found.

◆ getDefaultDelimiter()

std::string getDefaultDelimiter ( ) const

inherited

Return current default delimiter string used for parsing/storing properties.

Returns: default delimiter

◆ getDelimiterByNumber()

std::string getDelimiterByNumber ( const int index ) const

inherited

Returns a specific delimiter used for the property.

Parameters

index Index for which to get a delimiter

Returns: Number of property/comment entries

◆ getPreceedingComments()

std::string getPreceedingComments ( ) const

inherited

Returns any comments preceeding the section.

Sections in the mascot.dat file may have comments preceeding them. In most cases, these comments need to stay 'attached' to the section.

Multiple line comments are supported by having a single string with newline characters

See also: setPreceedingComments()

Returns: any comments preceeding the section

◆ getPropertyName()

std::string getPropertyName ( const int index ) const

inherited

Returns a property name for a given index.

Parameters

index property number from 0 to (getNumberOfProperties()-1).

Returns: Rroperty name of an empty string for comments.

◆ getPropValStringByName()

std::string getPropValStringByName ( const char * name ) const

inherited

Retrieves property value by name.

Don't use this method for comments as they all have empty name. Also note that there might be several entries corresponding to the same name . – only the first value will be returned. If in doubt use findProperty() and getPropValStringByNumber() instead.

Parameters

name	Name for which to get a property value

Returns: corresponding property value

◆ getPropValStringByNumber()

std::string getPropValStringByNumber ( const int index ) const

inherited

Retrieves property raw text values by number.

Parameters

index Index for which to get a property value

Returns: corresponding property value

◆ setDefaultDelimiter()

void setDefaultDelimiter ( const char * delim )

inherited

Allows to set a specific delimiter string to be used when no property-specific delimiter is supplied.

Parameters

delim String to set the default delimiter

◆ setPreceedingComments()

void setPreceedingComments ( const std::string & comments )

inherited

Sets any comments preceeding the section.

Sections in the mascot.dat file may have comments preceeding them. In most cases, these comments need to stay 'attached' to the section.

Multiple line comments are supported by having a single string with newline characters

See also: getPreceedingComments()

Parameters

comments any comments preceeding the section
