TimelineGui Class Reference

#include "stage/timeline/timeline-gui.hpp"

Description

smart-Handle as anchor point for "the UI representation" of a timeline.

A collection of TimelineGui elements is managed as children of the InteractionDirector. The corresponding TimelineWidget may or may not be present within the UI currently.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TimelineGui() [1/2]

TimelineGui	(	ID	identity,
		ID	trackID
	)

Initially, TimelineGui is just an empty placeholder handle.

Yet knowledge of the represented timeline's ID is required

Remarks

basically the default copy ctor, just redefined here explicitly to allow using TimelineGui without the need to include timeline-widget.hpp

actually build a TimelineWidget to enact the role represented by this smart-handle.

Remarks

some implementation twist involved here, since TimelinePanel manages a collection of unique_ptr<TimelinePage>, in order to be able to hold an empty placeholder page. Since C++ unfortunately does not support Covariance proper, we need to fabricate a unique_ptr<TimelinePage> right here, which can than be handed over to TimelinePanel, yet still we do inherit from WLink<TimelineWidget>, i.e. expose the subclass. The unque_ptr owns and manages the TimelineWidget, which is itself non-copyable and stays at a fixed location in heap memory, as is required by stage::ctrl::Nexus to maintain a registration of the UI-Bus connection. WLink to the contrary just connects to the widget, and is automatically disconnected when it dies.
