SWDataStringNode : SWDataNode

Base class for a data string node.

The methods of this class are largely inherited from SWDataNode, so this document only lists the methods which are different.

- Methods -

initSlots( )

Initializes the slots for this node with SWDataStringSlots.

- Identifier and label -

type ( )

The type of the node, which is 1 (string).

- Slots and data -

data_ ( indata )

Set the data to each slot. This sets the indata to the instance variable data, and then sets each slot with its value. Also sets the lasttime the data was set. Performs the action defined for the node (each slot will perform its own action as well). The difference with SWDataNode is that scaling is not performed, as this makes no sense for strings.

- Bus support -

- Debugging and monitoring -
