bool IAnnotationROOT::addItem ( const std::string &  key, const std::string &  value, bool  sticky = false  )

virtual

The list of the commonly accepted keys : "Title" for the title.

Add a key/value pair with a given sticky flag. If key alredy exists, override its value ?

Parameters

key	The key to be added.
value	The key's value.
sticky	The key's sticky flag. If true the item will not be removed when the method reset or removeItem are invoked. The default value for the sticky flag is false.

Returns

false If the key already exists.

Implements AIDA::IAnnotation.

std::string IAnnotationROOT::key ( int  index ) const

virtual

Get the key at a given position within the IAnnotation.

Parameters

index

The key's position within the IAnnotation.

Returns

The corresponding key.

Implements AIDA::IAnnotation.

bool IAnnotationROOT::removeItem ( const std::string &  key )

virtual

Remove the item indicated by a given key.

Parameters

key	The key to be removed. If the key is flagged as "sticky" it will not be removed.

Returns

false If the key is sticky.

Implements AIDA::IAnnotation.

void IAnnotationROOT::setSticky ( const std::string &  key, bool  sticky  )

virtual

Set the sticky flag for a given key.

Parameters

key	The key whose stick flag is to be set.
sticky	The new sticky flag.

Implements AIDA::IAnnotation.

void IAnnotationROOT::setValue ( const std::string &  key, const std::string &  value  )

virtual

Set the value for a given key.

Parameters

key	The key whose vale is to be changed.
value	The new value.

Implements AIDA::IAnnotation.

int IAnnotationROOT::size ( ) const

virtual

Get the size of the IAnnotation, i.e.

the number of keys contained in it.

Returns

The size of the IAnnotation.

Implements AIDA::IAnnotation.

std::string IAnnotationROOT::value ( const std::string &  key ) const

virtual

Retrieve the value for a given key.

Parameters

key

The key.

Returns

The corresponding value.

Implements AIDA::IAnnotation.

std::string IAnnotationROOT::value ( int  index ) const

virtual

Get the value at a given position within the IAnnotation.

Parameters

index

The value's position within the IAnnotation.

Returns

The corresponding value.

Implements AIDA::IAnnotation.
