a class which provides a way to store cEvent objects and derived objects

Source:

../src/cEvent.hh:111

public cStorableEvent ( const cEvent & e ) ;

default constructor - gets the event to store

(Note: It does not store the event provided but a clone of it, therefore cEvent::Clone() is called.)

public cStorableEvent ( const cStorableEvent & cse ) ;

the copy constructor

This is important as we have a dynamically allocated member.

public ~ cStorableEvent ( ) ;

destructor

public operator const cEvent & ( ) ;

operator for casting to cEvent

Return:

const reference to cEvent

public const bool operator == ( const cStorableEvent & se ) const ;

operator == to compare cStorableEvents

This is just delegated to the stored cEvents.

Return:

true if the stored event's types match

public const bool operator < ( const cStorableEvent & se ) const ;

operator < to compare cStorableEvents

This is just delegated to the stored cEvents.

This operator is a bit odd but needed by STL to store cStorableEvents in Sorted Containers.

Return:

true if this event's type is lower than se's type in terms of string comparison

public const bool operator == ( const cEvent & e ) const ;

operator == for comparing cStorableEvents with cEvents

public const bool operator < ( const cEvent & e ) const ;

operator < for comparing cStorableEvents with cEvents

public const string & GetName ( ) const ;

return name/type of event

Return:

const reference to string with name/type of event
