Hello,
I have been implementing the BParameter and related classes. So far
progress has been good. BParameter, BNullParameter, BDiscreteParameter, and
BContinuous parameter have been coded. Two methods I have been unable to
code are the
status_t GetValue(void *buffer, size_t *ioSize, bigtime_t *lastChange)
status_t SetValue(const void *buffer, size_t size, bigtime_t changeWhen)
members of BParameter (not overridden in the Null/Discrete/Continuous sub
classes). According to the Be Book:
'These calls simply dispatch to the BControllable::GetControlValue() and
BControllable::SetControlValue() functions.'
As far as I can see, BControllable does not have GetControlValue or
SetControlValue methods. Furthermore, what instance of a BControllable
class do you call GetControlValue/SetControlValue (if they existed) on?
Those methods aren't static (and as such, an instance must exist to call
them from), and BParameter does not descend from BControllable, so it's not
a case of calling a superclass' method. If anyone out there knows something
about this (or knows somebody else who knows about this), I would appreciate
some advice.
Thanks,
Z.S.
