Storage_Root Class Reference

A root object extracted from a Storage_Data object. A Storage_Root encapsulates a persistent object which is a root of a Storage_Data object. It contains additional information: the name and the data type of the persistent object. When retrieving a Storage_Data object from a container (for example, a file) you access its roots with the function Roots which returns a sequence of root objects. The provided functions allow you to request information about each root of the sequence. You do not create explicit roots: when inserting data in a Storage_Data object, you just provide the persistent object and optionally its name to the function AddRoot. More...

Detailed Description

A root object extracted from a Storage_Data object. A Storage_Root encapsulates a persistent object which is a root of a Storage_Data object. It contains additional information: the name and the data type of the persistent object. When retrieving a Storage_Data object from a container (for example, a file) you access its roots with the function Roots which returns a sequence of root objects. The provided functions allow you to request information about each root of the sequence. You do not create explicit roots: when inserting data in a Storage_Data object, you just provide the persistent object and optionally its name to the function AddRoot.

Member Function Documentation

TCollection_AsciiString Storage_Root::Name ( ) const

Returns the name of this root object. The name may have been given explicitly when the root was inserted into the Storage_Data object. If not, the name is a reference number which was assigned automatically by the driver when writing the set of data into the container. When naming the roots, it is easier to retrieve objects by significant references rather than by references without any semantic values. Warning The returned string will be empty if you call this function before having named this root object, either explicitly, or when writing the set of data into the container.

Handle< Standard_Persistent > Storage_Root::Object ( ) const

Returns the persistent object encapsulated by this root.

void Storage_Root::SetName ( const TCollection_AsciiString aName)
void Storage_Root::SetObject ( const Handle< Standard_Persistent > &  anObject)
TCollection_AsciiString Storage_Root::Type ( ) const

Returns the name of this root type.
