Detailed Description

Abstract base class defining the interface for TIFF composite visitors (Visitor pattern)

A concrete visitor class is used as shown in the example below. Accept() will invoke the member function corresponding to the concrete type of each component in the composite.

void visitorExample(Exiv2::TiffComponent* tiffComponent, Exiv2::TiffVisitor& visitor)
{
    tiffComponent->accept(visitor);
}

Member Enumeration Documentation

GoEvent

enum Exiv2::Internal::TiffVisitor::GoEvent

Events for the stop/go flag. See setGo().

Enumerator
geTraverse	Signal to control traversing of the composite tree.
geKnownMakernote	Signal used by TiffReader to signal an unknown makernote.

Member Function Documentation

setGo()

void Exiv2::Internal::TiffVisitor::setGo	(	GoEvent	event,
		bool	go
	)

Set the stop/go flag: true for go, false for stop.

This mechanism is used by visitors and components to signal special events. Specifically, TiffFinder sets the geTraverse flag as soon as it finds the correct component to signal to components that the search should be aborted. TiffReader uses geKnownMakernote to signal problems reading a makernote to the TiffMnEntry component. There is an array of flags, one for each defined event, so different signals can be used independent of each other.
