Description

The section refers to a sub-tree of the library settings container. It does not own the referred sub-tree but allows for convenient access to parameters within the subsection.

basic_settings_section public types

  1. typedef implementation_defined const_reference;

    Constant reference to the parameter value

  2. typedef implementation_defined reference;

    Mutable reference to the parameter value

  3. typedef implementation_defined const_iterator;

    Constant iterator over nested parameters and subsections

  4. typedef implementation_defined iterator;

    Mutable iterator over nested parameters and subsections

basic_settings_section public construct/copy/destruct

  1. basic_settings_section();

    Default constructor. Creates an empty settings container.

  2. basic_settings_section(basic_settings_section const & that);

    Copy constructor.

  3. explicit basic_settings_section(property_tree_type * tree);

basic_settings_section public member functions

  1. explicit operator bool() const noexcept;

    Checks if the section refers to the container.

  2. bool operator!() const noexcept;

    Checks if the section refers to the container.

  3. iterator begin();

    Returns an iterator over the nested subsections and parameters.

  4. iterator end();

    Returns an iterator over the nested subsections and parameters.

  5. const_iterator begin() const;

    Returns an iterator over the nested subsections and parameters.

  6. const_iterator end() const;

    Returns an iterator over the nested subsections and parameters.

  7. reverse_iterator rbegin();

    Returns a reverse iterator over the nested subsections and parameters.

  8. reverse_iterator rend();

    Returns a reverse iterator over the nested subsections and parameters.

  9. const_reverse_iterator rbegin() const;

    Returns a reverse iterator over the nested subsections and parameters.

  10. const_reverse_iterator rend() const;

    Returns a reverse iterator over the nested subsections and parameters.

  11. bool empty() const;

    Checks if the container is empty (i.e. contains no sections and parameters).

  12. reference operator[](std::string const & section_name);

    Accessor to a single parameter. This operator should be used in conjunction with the subsequent subscript operator that designates the parameter name.

    Parameters:

    section_name

    The name of the section in which the parameter resides

    Returns:

    An unspecified reference type that can be used for parameter name specifying

  13. const_reference operator[](std::string const & section_name) const;

    Accessor to a single parameter. This operator should be used in conjunction with the subsequent subscript operator that designates the parameter name.

    Parameters:

    section_name

    The name of the section in which the parameter resides

    Returns:

    An unspecified reference type that can be used for parameter name specifying

  14. reference operator[](const char * section_name);

    Accessor to a single parameter. This operator should be used in conjunction with the subsequent subscript operator that designates the parameter name.

    Parameters:

    section_name

    The name of the section in which the parameter resides

    Returns:

    An unspecified reference type that can be used for parameter name specifying

  15. const_reference operator[](const char * section_name) const;

    Accessor to a single parameter. This operator should be used in conjunction with the subsequent subscript operator that designates the parameter name.

    Parameters:

    section_name

    The name of the section in which the parameter resides

    Returns:

    An unspecified reference type that can be used for parameter name specifying

  16. property_tree_type const & property_tree() const;

    Accessor for the embedded property tree

  17. property_tree_type & property_tree();

    Accessor for the embedded property tree

  18. bool has_section(string_type const & section_name) const;

    Checks if the specified section is present in the container.

    Parameters:

    section_name

    The name of the section

  19. bool has_parameter(string_type const & section_name, 
                       string_type const & param_name) const;

    Checks if the specified parameter is present in the container.

    Parameters:

    param_name

    The name of the parameter

    section_name

    The name of the section in which the parameter resides

  20. void swap(basic_settings_section & that);

    Swaps two references to settings sections.
