Detailed Description

The base class for all event targets.

An event target defines the operand of an event effect. i.e., if the event effect defines how things change, the target defines which elements undergo the effect.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void Menge::EventTarget::finalize ( )

inlinevirtual

Allows the event target to finish initializing itself from its parsed state to its running state.

Exceptions

EventException

if there is a problem finalizing.

Reimplemented in Menge::NamedStateMemberTarget.

virtual void Menge::EventTarget::update ( )

inlinevirtual

Gives the target a chance to update its knowledge of the target entities.

If a sub-class needs to do particular computation to evaluate the target, it should be implemented here.

Reimplemented in Menge::NamedStateMemberTarget.
