Detailed Description

Base class for all variant types.

This provides a common interface for all type classes to implement, as well as giving variant a base pointer type for its value member. It also serves as the implementation of the 'null' variant value.

Do note this class should not implement any data members.

Member Function Documentation

◆ as_bool()

virtual bool wfl::variant_value_base::as_bool ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns a bool expression of the variant value.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_container< T >, wfl::variant_container< variant_map_raw >, wfl::variant_container< variant_vector >, wfl::variant_string, wfl::variant_callable, and wfl::variant_numeric.

Definition at line 123 of file variant_value.hpp.

◆ deref_iterator()

variant wfl::variant_value_base::deref_iterator ( const boost::any & iter ) const

virtual

Implements the dereference functionality of variant_iterator for a value of this type.

Parameters

iter	The opaque reference that was passed to the variant_iterator by make_iterator.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_map, wfl::variant_list, and wfl::variant_callable.

Definition at line 28 of file variant_value.cpp.

Referenced by wfl::variant_iterator::operator*().

◆ equals()

virtual bool wfl::variant_value_base::equals ( variant_value_base & ) const

inlinevirtual

Called to determine if this variant is equal to another of the same type.

This function is only called if get_type() returns the same result for both arguments.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_map, wfl::variant_list, wfl::variant_string, wfl::variant_callable, and wfl::variant_numeric.

Definition at line 132 of file variant_value.hpp.

◆ get_debug_string()

virtual std::string wfl::variant_value_base::get_debug_string	(	formula_seen_stack &	,
		bool
	)		const

inlinevirtual

Returns debug info for the variant value.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_container< T >, wfl::variant_container< variant_map_raw >, wfl::variant_container< variant_vector >, wfl::variant_string, wfl::variant_callable, wfl::variant_decimal, and wfl::variant_int.

Definition at line 117 of file variant_value.hpp.

◆ get_serialized_string()

virtual std::string wfl::variant_value_base::get_serialized_string ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns the stored variant value in formula syntax.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_container< T >, wfl::variant_container< variant_map_raw >, wfl::variant_container< variant_vector >, wfl::variant_string, wfl::variant_callable, wfl::variant_decimal, and wfl::variant_int.

Definition at line 111 of file variant_value.hpp.

◆ get_type()

virtual const VARIANT_TYPE& wfl::variant_value_base::get_type ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns the id of the variant type.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_map, wfl::variant_list, wfl::variant_string, wfl::variant_callable, wfl::variant_decimal, and wfl::variant_int.

Definition at line 147 of file variant_value.hpp.

◆ is_empty()

virtual bool wfl::variant_value_base::is_empty ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Whether the stored value is considered empty or not.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_container< T >, wfl::variant_container< variant_map_raw >, wfl::variant_container< variant_vector >, and wfl::variant_string.

Definition at line 99 of file variant_value.hpp.

◆ iterator_dec()

virtual void wfl::variant_value_base::iterator_dec ( boost::any & ) const

inlinevirtual

Implements the decrement functionality of variant_iterator for a value of this type.

The parameter is an opaque reference that was passed to the variant_iterator by make_iterator.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_container< T >, wfl::variant_container< variant_map_raw >, wfl::variant_container< variant_vector >, and wfl::variant_callable.

Definition at line 185 of file variant_value.hpp.

◆ iterator_equals()

virtual bool wfl::variant_value_base::iterator_equals	(	const boost::any &	,
		const boost::any &
	)		const

inlinevirtual

Implements the equality functionality of variant_iterator for a value of this type.

Note that this is only called if the two iterators are already known to be of the same type.

The first parameter is an opaque reference that was passed to the variant_iterator by make_iterator. The second parameter is an opaque reference that was passed to the variant_iterator by make_iterator.

Reimplemented in wfl::variant_container< T >, wfl::variant_container< variant_map_raw >, wfl::variant_container< variant_vector >, and wfl::variant_callable.
