Detailed Description

Visitor interface and base class for TypeTree visitors.

DefaultVisitor defines the interface for visitors that can be applied to a TypeTree using applyToTree(). Each method of the visitor is passed a node of the tree (either as a mutable or a const reference, depending on the constness of the tree applyToTree() was called with). The second argument is of type TreePath and denotes the exact position of the node within the TypeTree, encoded as child indices starting at the root node.

In order to create a functioning visitor, an implementation will - in addition to providing the methods of this class - also have to contain the following template struct, which is used to determine whether to visit a given node:

template<typename Node, typename Child, typename TreePath>
struct VisitChild
{
  static const bool value = ...; // decide whether to visit Child
};

For the two most common scenarios - visiting only direct children and visiting the whole tree - there are mixin classes VisitDirectChildren and VisitTree and combined base classes TreeVisitor and DirectChildrenVisitor. The latter two inherit from both DefaultVisitor and one of the two mixin classes and can thus be used as convenient base classes.

Note

This class can also be used as a convenient base class if the implemented visitor only needs to act on some of the possible callback sites, avoiding a lot of boilerplate code.

Member Function Documentation

afterChild()

template<typename T , typename Child , typename TreePath , typename ChildIndex >

void Dune::TypeTree::DefaultVisitor::afterChild ( T &&  , Child &&  , TreePath  , ChildIndex    ) const

inline

Method for child-parent traversal.

This method gets called after visiting a child node.

Note

This method gets called even if the child node was not visited because the visitor chose not to do so.

Parameters

t	The parent node.
child	The child node that was visited last (if the visitor did not reject it).
treePath	The position of the parent node within the TypeTree.
childIndex	The index of the child node in relation to the parent node.

beforeChild()

template<typename T , typename Child , typename TreePath , typename ChildIndex >

void Dune::TypeTree::DefaultVisitor::beforeChild ( T &&  , Child &&  , TreePath  , ChildIndex    ) const

inline

Method for parent-child traversal.

This method gets called before visiting a child node.

Note

This method gets called even if the visitor decides not to visit the child in question.

Parameters

t	The parent node.
child	The child node that will (potentially) be visited next.
treePath	The position of the parent node within the TypeTree.
childIndex	The index of the child node in relation to the parent node.

in()

template<typename T , typename TreePath >

void Dune::TypeTree::DefaultVisitor::in ( T &&  , TreePath    ) const

inline

Method for infix tree traversal.

This method gets called BETWEEN visits of children of a non-leaf node. That definition implies that this method will only be called for nodes with at least two children.

Parameters

t	The node to visit.
treePath	The position of the node within the TypeTree.

leaf()

template<typename T , typename TreePath >

void Dune::TypeTree::DefaultVisitor::leaf ( T &&  , TreePath    ) const

inline

Method for leaf traversal.

This method gets called when encountering a leaf node within the TypeTree.

Parameters

t	The node to visit.
treePath	The position of the node within the TypeTree.

post()

template<typename T , typename TreePath >

void Dune::TypeTree::DefaultVisitor::post ( T &&  , TreePath    ) const

inline

Method for postfix tree traversal.

This method gets called after all children of a non-leaf node have been visited.

Parameters

t	The node to visit.
treePath	The position of the node within the TypeTree.

pre()

template<typename T , typename TreePath >

void Dune::TypeTree::DefaultVisitor::pre ( T &&  , TreePath    ) const

inline

Method for prefix tree traversal.

This method gets called when first encountering a non-leaf node and before visiting any of its children.

Parameters

t	The node to visit.
treePath	The position of the node within the TypeTree.
