Detailed Description

The TrackSelection class allows an Application to provide the facility to 'select' one or more TSE3::Track in a TSE3::Song. These TSE3::Track objects must be held in a TSE3::Song. As soon as a TSE3::Track is removed from a TSE3::Song, it is removed from the selection.

This behviour is useful when using the command history system in the TSE3::Cmd namespace where undoing a TSE3::Track add, for example, may cause a selected Track to be removed from the TSE3::Song.

Internally, the Tracks are held in an STL vector of type . In order to get access to the contents of this vector, access is provided to it's iterator.

If you are using the iterators and performing any operations that may affect the TrackSelection (i.e. removing a TSE3::Track from it's TSE3::Track and reinserting it elsewhere) then you will invalidate the iterator.

A method of avoiding this would be to, rather than iterate over each Track, to remove a Track from the head of the list, work on it, and place it into a second TrackSelection. Do this for each Track in the TrackSelection, and when finished, copy the new TrackSelection into the old one.

Interaction with PartSelection

You may want to use this selection utility in connection with the PartSelection class to ensure that the user has only selected one type of object at any time.

To facilitate this, the TrackSelection is a PartSelectionListener. You can attach it to a PartSelection object, and whenever the PartSelection has a TSE3::Part selected the TrackSelection will be cleared.

You will need to use an attach like this:


   TrackSelection  ts;
   PartSelection  *ps = somePartSelection();
   ts.TSE3::Listener::attachTo(ps);

TrackSelection ()

TrackSelection

The TrackSelection begins with no Track selected.

~TrackSelection ()

~TrackSelection

TrackSelection (const TrackSelection &)

TrackSelection

void select (TSE3::Track *track, bool add)

select

Selects a TSE3::Track.

If the TSE3::Track is not in a TSE3::Song, it will not be selected.

Parameters:

track The Track to select

add Whether to add the TSE3::Track to the selection (true) or to replace the current selection (false).

void deselect (TSE3::Track *track)

deselect

Deselects a Track. If the Track is not selected, then nothing will happen.

Parameters:

track The Track to deselect

void clear ()

clear

Clears the entire selection.

void selectAll (TSE3::Song *song)

selectAll

Selects all the TSE3::Track objects in the given TSE3::Song (this 'should' include any Tracks alreadys selected!).

Parameters:

song TSE3::Song whose TSE3::Track objects are all to be selected

void invert (TSE3::Song *song)

invert

Inverts the selection for all the TSE3::Track objects in the given TSE3::Song (i.e. all selected Tracks are deselected and all deselected Tracks are selected).

Parameters:

song TSE3::Song whose TSE3::Track objects are all to be inverted

TrackSelection & operator= (const TrackSelection &)

operator=

Copy TrackSelection contents.

size_t size ()

size

[const]

Returns how many TSE3::Track objects are selected.

Returns: No of selected TSE3::Track objects

bool isSelected (TSE3::Track *track)

isSelected

[const]

Returns whether a particular TSE3::Track is selected.

Parameters:

track The TSE3::Track to run selection test on

Returns: Whether the TSE3::Track is selected

typedef std::vector<TSE3::Track*>::const_iterator iterator_t

iterator_t

Track * front ()

front

[const]

Returns the first item in the TrackSelection, or zero if there are no selected Tracks.

Returns: First selected TSE3::Track

Track * back ()

back

[const]

Returns the last item in the TrackSelection, or zero if there are no selected Tracks.

Returns: Last selected TSE3::Track

iterator_t begin ()

begin

[const]

Returns an iterator pointing to the first TSE3::Track in this selection.

Returns: Iterator pointing to first selected TSE3::Track

iterator_t end ()

end

[const]

Returns an iterator pointing to the last TSE3::Track in this selection.

Returns: Iterator pointing to last selected TSE3::Track
