Network
and WtNetwork
StructuresThe callback API provides a way for a Network
structure
to signal precisely when a particular change (e.g., an edge toggle) is
about to take place. It is intended to simplify and robustify the
management of u_
functions from the Terms API.
void OnNetworkEdgeChange(Vertex, Vertex, void *, Network *)
and
void OnWtNetworkEdgeChange(Vertex, Vertex, double, void *, Network *)
,
a callback function, compatible with u_
functions and
Mu_
functions both (since a void*
can be any
pointer).
Network
and WtNetwork
OnNetworkEdgeChange **on_edge_change
and
OnWtNetworkEdgeChange **on_edge_change
: an array of
pointers to callback functions.
void **on_edge_change_payload
: an array of
void
pointers that get passed as the third argument to the
corresponding on_edge_change
function.
unsigned int n_on_edge_change
: number of callbacks in
the above two arrays.
unsigned int max_on_edge_change
: the amount of space
allocated for the above two arrays.
void AddOnNetworkEdgeChange(Network *nwp, OnNetworkEdgeChange u_func, void *payload, unsigned int pos)
and
void AddOnWtNetworkEdgeChange(WtNetwork *nwp, OnWtNetworkEdgeChange u_func, void *payload, unsigned int pos)
:
Set a callback u_func
to be called with argument
payload
whenever an edge in nwp
is changed.
Its position in the list (i.e., the order in which it is called) is set
to be pos
(with large pos
truncated to
indicate the last position).
void DeleteOnNetworkEdgeChange(Network *nwp, OnNetworkEdgeChange u_func, void *payload)
and
void DeleteOnWtNetworkEdgeChange(WtNetwork *nwp, OnWTNetworkEdgeChange u_func, void *payload)
:
Search the list of nwp
’s callbacks for u_func
and payload
and delete the callback when it is found. (If
it is not found, an immediate error is raised.)
Whereas before, it was possible to define a u_func
with
a specific payload type, e.g.,
void u_myterm(Vertex tail, Vertex head, ModelTerm *mtp, Network *nwp)
,
this will now trigger a warning by clang-asan
, since the
function signature expected will be different (i.e.,
ModelTerm *
vs. void *
). Terms and proposals
therefore wrap their u
functions, so this should be
transparent to the developer, but anyone else using the API should be
aware of this.
