EventLog

public EventLog()

Method Details

addTo

public void addTo(Buildable b)

Description copied from interface: Buildable

Adds this component to its parent. In order to make Buildable objects extensible, the child is responsible for adding itself to the parent. That way, Buildable subcomponents can be defined in an extension package without needing to modify the containing class.

Specified by:

addTo in interface Buildable

Parameters:

b - parent Buildable to add this component to as a subcomponent.

clearSaved

public void clearSaved()

store

public void store(EventLog.Event e)

log

public void log(EventLog.Event e)

decode

public Command decode(String s)

Description copied from interface: CommandEncoder

Translate a String into a Command

Specified by:

decode in interface CommandEncoder

encode

public String encode(Command c)

Description copied from interface: CommandEncoder

Translate a Command into a String

Specified by:

encode in interface CommandEncoder

setup

public void setup(boolean starting)

Description copied from interface: GameComponent

Notify the GameComponent that a game has started/ended

Specified by:

setup in interface GameComponent

Parameters:

starting - if true, a game is starting. If false, then a game is ending

getRestoreCommand

public Command getRestoreCommand()

Description copied from interface: GameComponent

When saving a game, each GameComponent should return a Command that, when executed, restores the GameComponent to its state when the game was saved If this component has no persistent state, return null

Specified by:

getRestoreCommand in interface GameComponent

decodedEvents

public static Iterable<EventLog.Event> decodedEvents(String s)

Decodes a String into a sequence of Events.

Parameters:

s - the event string

Returns:

the events represented by the string

encodedEvents

public static String encodedEvents(Iterable<EventLog.Event> events)

Encodes a sequence of Events into a String.

Parameters:

events - the sequence of events

Returns:

the string representing the events

getAttributeNames

public String[] getAttributeNames()

Description copied from class: AbstractBuildable

Lists all the buildFile (XML) attribute names for this component. If this component is ALSO an AbstractConfigurable, then this list of attributes determines the appropriate attribute order for AbstractConfigurable.getAttributeDescriptions() and AbstractConfigurable.getAttributeTypes().

Specified by:

getAttributeNames in class AbstractBuildable

Returns:

a list of all buildFile (XML) attribute names for this component

setAttribute

public void setAttribute(String name,
 Object value)

Description copied from class: AbstractBuildable

Sets a buildFile (XML) attribute value for this component. The key parameter will be one of those listed in AbstractBuildable.getAttributeNames(). If the value parameter is a String, it will be the value returned by AbstractBuildable.getAttributeValueString(java.lang.String) for the same key. If the implementing class extends AbstractConfigurable, then value will be an instance of the corresponding Class listed in AbstractConfigurable.getAttributeTypes()

Specified by:

setAttribute in class AbstractBuildable

Parameters:

name - the name of the attribute. Will be one of those listed in AbstractBuildable.getAttributeNames()

value - If the value parameter is a String, it will be the value returned by AbstractBuildable.getAttributeValueString(java.lang.String) for the same key. If the implementing class extends AbstractConfigurable, then value can also be an instance of the corresponding Class listed in AbstractConfigurable.getAttributeTypes()

getAttributeValueString

public String getAttributeValueString(String name)

Specified by:

getAttributeValueString in class AbstractBuildable

Parameters:

name - the name of the attribute. Will be one of those listed in AbstractBuildable.getAttributeNames()

Returns:

a String representation of the XML buildFile attribute with the given name. When initializing a module, this String value will loaded from the XML and passed to AbstractBuildable.setAttribute(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object). It is also frequently used for checking the current value of an attribute.
