Member Function Documentation

◆ add_recorder()

void RecorderController::add_recorder ( const std::string &  name,
RecorderBase recorder 
)
inline

Adds the named recorder to the set of recorders that are in use.

If the controller is in recording mode, the named recorder will begin recording its status to the session file. If the controller is in playback mode and the name and type matches a recorder in the session file, the recorder will begin receiving data.

Definition at line 118 of file recorderController.I.

References RecorderTable::add_recorder(), and is_recording().

◆ begin_playback()

bool RecorderController::begin_playback ( const Filename filename)

Begins playing back data from the indicated filename.

All of the recorders in use should already have been added, although this may define additional recorders if they are present in the file (these new recorders will not be used). This may also undefine recorders that were previously added but are not present in the file.

Definition at line 104 of file recorderController.cxx.

References close(), ClockObject::get_frame_count, ClockObject::get_frame_time, ClockObject::get_global_clock(), DatagramInputFile::open(), and DatagramInputFile::read_header().

◆ begin_record()

bool RecorderController::begin_record ( const Filename filename)

Begins recording data to the indicated filename.

All of the recorders in use should already have been added.

Definition at line 56 of file recorderController.cxx.

References close(), ClockObject::get_frame_count, ClockObject::get_frame_time, ClockObject::get_global_clock(), DatagramOutputFile::open(), and DatagramOutputFile::write_header().

◆ close()

void RecorderController::close ( )

Finishes recording data to the indicated filename.

Definition at line 171 of file recorderController.cxx.

References RecorderTable::clear_flags(), DatagramInputFile::close(), and DatagramOutputFile::close().

Referenced by begin_playback(), begin_record(), and play_frame().

◆ get_clock_offset()

double RecorderController::get_clock_offset ( ) const
inline

Returns the delta offset between the actual frame time and the frame time written to the log.

This is essentially the time at which the recording (or playback) started.

Definition at line 94 of file recorderController.I.

◆ get_factory()

RecorderController::RecorderFactory * RecorderController::get_factory ( )
inlinestatic

Returns the global RecorderFactory for generating TypedWritable objects.

Definition at line 219 of file recorderController.I.

Referenced by MouseRecorder::register_with_read_factory().

◆ get_filename()

const Filename & RecorderController::get_filename ( ) const
inline

Returns the filename that was passed to the most recent call to begin_record() or begin_playback().

Definition at line 74 of file recorderController.I.

◆ get_frame_offset()

int RecorderController::get_frame_offset ( ) const
inline

Returns the delta offset between the actual frame count and the frame count written to the log.

This is essentially the frame number at which the recording (or playback) started.

Definition at line 104 of file recorderController.I.

◆ get_frame_tie()

bool RecorderController::get_frame_tie ( ) const
inline

See set_frame_tie().

Definition at line 211 of file recorderController.I.

◆ get_random_seed()

int RecorderController::get_random_seed ( ) const
inline

Returns the random seed that was set by a previous call to set_random_seed(), or the number read from the session file after begin_playback() has been called.

Definition at line 40 of file recorderController.I.

◆ get_recorder()

RecorderBase * RecorderController::get_recorder ( const std::string &  name) const
inline

Returns the recorder with the indicated name, or NULL if there is no such recorder.

If the controller is in playback mode, this may return the recorder matching the indicated name as read from the session file, even if it was never added to the table by the user. In this case, has_recorder() may return false, but get_recorder() will return a non-NULL value.

Definition at line 154 of file recorderController.I.

References RecorderTable::get_recorder(), and is_playing().

◆ get_start_time()

time_t RecorderController::get_start_time ( ) const
inline

Returns the time (and date) at which the current session was originally recorded (or, in recording mode, the time at which the current session began).

Definition at line 20 of file recorderController.I.

◆ has_recorder()

bool RecorderController::has_recorder ( const std::string &  name) const
inline

Returns true if the named recorder has been added to the table by a previous call to add_recorder(), false otherwise.

If the controller is in playback mode, this will also return false for a recorder that was found in the session file but was never explicitly added via add_recorder(); see get_recorder().

Definition at line 140 of file recorderController.I.

References RecorderTable::get_recorder().

◆ is_error()

bool RecorderController::is_error ( )
inline

Returns true if the controller has been opened for input or output output and there is an error on the stream, or false if the controller is closed or if there is no problem.

Definition at line 84 of file recorderController.I.

References DatagramInputFile::is_error(), and DatagramOutputFile::is_error().

◆ is_open()

bool RecorderController::is_open ( ) const
inline

Returns true if the controller has been opened for either input or output, false otherwise.

Definition at line 65 of file recorderController.I.

References is_playing(), and is_recording().

◆ is_playing()

bool RecorderController::is_playing ( ) const
inline

Returns true if the controller has been opened for input, false otherwise.

Definition at line 56 of file recorderController.I.

Referenced by get_recorder(), is_open(), play_frame(), and remove_recorder().

◆ is_recording()

bool RecorderController::is_recording ( ) const
inline

Returns true if the controller has been opened for output, false otherwise.

Definition at line 48 of file recorderController.I.

Referenced by add_recorder(), is_open(), record_frame(), and remove_recorder().

◆ play_frame()

void RecorderController::play_frame ( )

◆ record_frame()

void RecorderController::record_frame ( )

Gets the next frame of data from all of the active recorders and adds it to the output file.

Definition at line 205 of file recorderController.cxx.

References ClockObject::get_frame_count, ClockObject::get_frame_time, ClockObject::get_global_clock(), and is_recording().

◆ remove_recorder()

bool RecorderController::remove_recorder ( const std::string &  name)
inline

Removes the named recorder from the table.

Returns true if successful, false if there was no such recorder.

If the controller is in recording mode, the named recorder will stop recording. If the controller is in playback mode, the named recorder will disassociate itself from the session file (but if the session file still has data for this name, a default recorder will take its place to decode the data from the session file).

Definition at line 173 of file recorderController.I.

References RecorderTable::get_recorder(), is_playing(), is_recording(), and RecorderTable::remove_recorder().

◆ set_frame_tie()

void RecorderController::set_frame_tie ( bool  frame_tie)
inline

Sets the frame_tie flag.

When this is true, sessions are played back frame-for-frame, based on the frame count of the recorded session. This gives the most accurate playback, but the playback rate will vary according to the frame rate of the playback machine.

When this is false, sessions are played back at real time, based on the clock of the recorded session. This may introduce playback discrepencies if the frames do not fall at exactly the same times as they did in the original.

Definition at line 203 of file recorderController.I.

◆ set_random_seed()

void RecorderController::set_random_seed ( int  random_seed)
inline

Indicates an arbitrary number to be recorded in the session file as a random seed, should the application wish to take advantage of it.

This must be set before begin_record() is called.

Definition at line 30 of file recorderController.I.
