Detailed Description

This interface defines how additional toolkits are loaded into Orocos.

A ToolkitPlugin defines additional user data types for a Toolkit.

Definition at line 50 of file ToolkitPlugin.hpp.

virtual bool RTT::ToolkitPlugin::loadConstructors ( ) [pure virtual]

Implement this method to load Scripting constructors of types, such as in C++.

Default constructors (which take no arguments) need not to be added.

See also:: The TypeInfo class for adding a constructor to a type; The TypeBuilder class for the interface of a constructor.; The newConstructor utility function for creating a new constructor object.; The RealTimeToolkit for an implementation example.

virtual bool RTT::ToolkitPlugin::loadOperators ( ) [pure virtual]

Implement this method to load Scripting operators on types, such as '+', '*', .

virtual bool RTT::ToolkitPlugin::loadTypes ( ) [pure virtual]

Implement this method to add types to the Orocos type system.

See also:: The TypeRepository for adding the types.; The TypeInfo class for the interface of a 'type'; The TemplateTypeInfo class for easy addition of new user types in scripting, XML,...; The TypeInfoName class for only 'name' addition of a user type; The TemplateIndexTypeInfo for adding container types.; The RealTimeToolkit for an implementation example.
