Detailed Description

Class representing a plugin field.

Plugin fields are used to store additional, non-data information related to a tag field. This information can include things display names, descriptions, and visibility. It also stores the offset and length of the data - which is required for tag compilation.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ BlamPluginField() [1/2]

BlamPluginField::BlamPluginField ( BlamPlugin _plugin,
BlamTagFieldType  _type 
)

Constructs a new plugin field.

Parameters
_plugin- The plugin this field should be associated with.
_type- The type of the field.

◆ BlamPluginField() [2/2]

BlamPluginField::BlamPluginField ( BlamPluginField _old_field)

Constructs a new plugin field.

Parameters
_old_field- The old field to load data from. Becomes invalid after construction.

Member Function Documentation

◆ GenerateTagField() [1/3]

BlamTagField * BlamPluginField::GenerateTagField ( BlamTag tag)
virtual

Generates a new tag field from this plugin field.

With this overload, a brand new tag field is created with no value.

Parameters
tag- The tag the new field should belong to.
Returns
Pointer to the new tag field.

◆ GenerateTagField() [2/3]

BlamTagField * BlamPluginField::GenerateTagField ( BlamTag tag,
void *  address 
)
virtual

Generates a new tag field from this plugin field.

With this overload, a new field is created and its value(s) are read from the tag data. This should only be used when reading binary (compiled) tag files.

Parameters
tag- The tag the new field should belong to.
address- The address of the field value.
Returns
Pointer to the new tag field.

◆ GenerateTagField() [3/3]

BlamTagField * BlamPluginField::GenerateTagField ( BlamTagField existing_tag_field)
virtual

Generates a new tag field from this plugin field.

With this overload, the tag field remains unchanged but has this plugin field assigned to it.

Parameters
existing_tag_field- The existing tag field to associate this plugin field with.
Returns
Pointer to the new tag field. Will be identical to existing_tag_field.

◆ GenerateXMLString()

std::string BlamPluginField::GenerateXMLString ( )
virtual

Generates a string representing this plugin field.

Returns
An XML string containing the field ID and other attributes.

Reimplemented in BlamPluginField_Block, and BlamPluginField_Enum.

◆ GetPlugin()

BlamPlugin * BlamPluginField::GetPlugin ( )

Retrieves the plugin this field is associated with.

Returns
A pointer to the plugin associated with this field.

◆ GetType()

BlamTagFieldType BlamPluginField::GetType ( )

Retrieves the type of this field.

See BlamTagFieldType for details.

Returns
The type of this field.

◆ UpdateOffsetData()

void BlamPluginField::UpdateOffsetData ( int  new_offset)
virtual

Updates any offsets or lengths for the given field.

In most cases, this simply updates the offset field to the new value. However, in some cases, additional steps may need to be performed, such as recalculating the entry size of a block. This method will also perform these operations as needed, depending on the plugin field type.

Parameters
new_offset- The new offset for the plugin field.

Reimplemented in BlamPluginField_Block.
