Member Function Documentation

AddListener()

virtual bool mitk::INodeSelectionService::AddListener ( const std::string &  context, INodeSelectionListener *  listener  )

pure virtual

Add a listener for selections in a certain selection context.

A selection context is a non-empty, arbitrary and unique string that both sender and receiver agreed upon. A listener must not be nullptr and can be added only once.

Parameters

context	A non-empty, arbitrary and unique string that both sender and receiver agreed upon.
listener	A valid pointer to a class implementing the listener interface.

Returns

true if the listener was successfully added or already has been added before, or false otherwise.

Implemented in mitk::NodeSelectionService.

RemoveListener() [1/2]

virtual bool mitk::INodeSelectionService::RemoveListener ( const INodeSelectionListener *  listener )

pure virtual

Remove a listener from selections of all selection contexts.

Parameters

listener

A pointer to an already added listener.

Returns

true if the listener was actually found, or false otherwise.

AddListener()

Implemented in mitk::NodeSelectionService.

RemoveListener() [2/2]

virtual bool mitk::INodeSelectionService::RemoveListener ( const std::string &  context, const INodeSelectionListener *  listener  )

pure virtual

Remove a listener from selections of a certain selection context.

Parameters

context	A non-empty, arbitrary and unique string that both sender and receiver agreed upon.
listener	A pointer to an already added listener.

Returns

true if the listener was actually found for the given context, or false otherwise.

SendSelection()

virtual bool mitk::INodeSelectionService::SendSelection ( const std::string &  context, const std::vector< mitk::DataNode::Pointer > &  selection  ) const

pure virtual

Send a selection to all listeners of a certain selection context.

Parameters

context	A non-empty, arbitrary and unique string that both sender and receiver agreed upon.
selection	A selection of potentially multiple data nodes to send to any listeners for the given selection context.
