Methods' Details |
getClass
- Description
- returns a whole atom class
- Parameter atomClass
- which class to return
- Returns
- the descriptions for all atoms of class
atomClass
|
|
getClasses
sequence< sequence< AtomDescription > > |
getClasses( |
[in] sequence< long > |
atomClasses ); |
- Description
- returns mutltiple atom classes
- Parameter atomClasses
- which classes to return
- Returns
- the descriptions for all atoms of the requested classes
|
|
getAtomDescriptions
sequence< string > |
getAtomDescriptions( |
[in] sequence< AtomClassRequest > |
atoms ); |
- Description
- returns the strings for an arbitrary amount of atoms of multiple classes
- Parameter atoms
- describes which strings to return
- Returns
- the strings for the requested atoms
|
|
getRecentAtoms
sequence< AtomDescription > |
getRecentAtoms( |
[in] long |
atomClass, |
| [in] long |
atom ); |
- Description
- returns the atoms that have been registered to a class after an
already known atom
Hint to implementor: using ascending atoms is the easiest way
to decide, which atoms are recent.
- Parameter atomClass
- the class in question
- Parameter atom
- the last known atom
- Returns
- all atom description that have been added to class
atomClass after atom

[in] long |
atomClass, |
| [in] string |
description, |
| [in] boolean |
create ); |
- Description
- registers or searches for a string
- Parameter atomClass
- the class of atoms in question
- Parameter description
- the string in question
- Parameter create
- if true a new atom will be created for an unknown string
else the invalid atom (0) will be returned for an unknown string
- Returns
- the atom for the string
description
