Macro Definition Documentation

#define STANDARD_MEMBER_COMPOSITION_MEMBERS	(		TYPE,
			NAME
	)

Value:

void NAME ( const TYPE & NAME ## _in ) { NAME ## _ = NAME ## _in ; }\
  const TYPE& NAME() const { return NAME ## _; }\
private:\
  TYPE NAME ## _;\
public: \
  typedef ::Teuchos::DummyDummyClass NAME ## DummyDummyClass_t

Macro that adds <<std member="" comp>="">> attributes to any class.

For example, if you want to include a <<std member="" comp>="">> attribute as a member object of type MyClass with the name my_attribute you would include the macro in the public section of YourClass declaration as follows:

 class YourClass {
 public:
   STANDARD_MEMBER_COMPOSITION_MEMBERS( MyClass, my_attribute );
 };

This macro adds the following data member to the class declaration:

       private:
               MyClass my_attribute_;

and the following methods to your class declaration:

 public:
 void my_attribute( const My_Class & my_attribute_in )
   { my_attribute_ = my_attribute_in; }
 const My_Class& my_attribute() const
   { return my_attribute_; }

The advantage of using this type of declaration is that it saves you a lot of typing and space. Later if you need to override these operations you can just implement the member functions by hand.
