Default Compiler Generated Methods

(Hidden to avoid implicit creation/calling).

These methods are not implemented and we do not want the compiler to implement them for us, so we declare them private and do not define them. This ensures that they will not be implicitly created/called.

Detailed Description

Slight Variation of the Observer Design Pattern.

This class implements the Observer class of the Observer Design Pattern. An Observer "Attach"es to a Subject, indicating that it would like to be notified of changes in the Subject. Any derived class wishing to recieve notifications from a Subject should inherit off of Observer and overload the protected method, RecieveNotification_(...).

Member Function Documentation

void Ipopt::Observer::RequestAttach ( NotifyType  notify_type,
const Subject subject 
) [inline, protected]

Derived classes should call this method to request an "Attach" to a Subject.

Do not call "Attach" explicitly on the Subject since further processing is done here

Definition at line 219 of file IpObserver.hpp.

void Ipopt::Observer::RequestDetach ( NotifyType  notify_type,
const Subject subject 
) [inline, protected]

Derived classes should call this method to request a "Detach" to a Subject.

Do not call "Detach" explicitly on the Subject since further processing is done here

Definition at line 238 of file IpObserver.hpp.

virtual void Ipopt::Observer::RecieveNotification ( NotifyType  notify_type,
const Subject subject 
) [protected, pure virtual]
void Ipopt::Observer::operator= ( const Observer ) [private]

Overloaded Equals Operator.

void Ipopt::Observer::ProcessNotification ( NotifyType  notify_type,
const Subject subject 
) [inline, private]

Private Method for Recieving Notification should only be called by the friend class Subject.

This method will, in turn, call the overloaded RecieveNotification method for the derived class to process.
