ola::Port Class Reference

Detailed Description

The base port class.

Ports represent a single universe of DMX512. They are either input (receive DMX) or output (send DMX) but not both.

Every port is part of a Device. Ports can be associated (patched) to a universe.

GetDevice()

virtual AbstractDevice* ola::Port::GetDevice ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the device which owns this Port.

Returns

the Device which owns this Port.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

GetPriority()

virtual uint8_t ola::Port::GetPriority ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the numeric priority for this Port.

Returns

the priority, higher numbers take precedence.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

GetPriorityMode()

virtual port_priority_mode ola::Port::GetPriorityMode ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the Priority Mode for this Port.

Returns

the Priority Mode.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

GetUniverse()

virtual Universe* ola::Port::GetUniverse ( ) const

pure virtual

Fetch the universe this Port is bound to.

Returns

the Universe that this Port is bound to or NULL if the Port isn't patched.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

PortId()

virtual unsigned int ola::Port::PortId ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the Port ID. This is the index within the device.

Returns

the id of the Port.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

PriorityCapability()

virtual port_priority_capability ola::Port::PriorityCapability ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the priority capabilities for this port.

Returns

a port_priority_capability.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

SetPriority()

virtual bool ola::Port::SetPriority ( uint8_t  priority )

pure virtual

Set the Priority for this Port.

Parameters

priority

the priority to use.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

SetPriorityMode()

virtual void ola::Port::SetPriorityMode ( port_priority_mode  mode )

pure virtual

Set the Priority Mode for this Port.

Parameters

mode	the Priority Mode to use.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

SetUniverse()

virtual bool ola::Port::SetUniverse ( Universe *  universe )

pure virtual

Bind this port to a universe.

Parameters

universe

the Universe to bind to.

Returns

true if the patch succeeded, false otherwise.

This shouldn't be called directly. Instead use PortManager::PatchPort() which takes care of everything for you.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

SupportsRDM()

virtual bool ola::Port::SupportsRDM ( ) const

pure virtual

Check if this Port supports RDM or not.

Returns

true if RDM is supported for this Port, false otherwise.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.

UniqueId()

virtual std::string ola::Port::UniqueId ( ) const

pure virtual

Return the globally unique id for a Port.

This is used to preserve port universe bindings. An empty string means we don't preserve settings.

Implemented in ola::BasicOutputPort, and ola::BasicInputPort.
