Public / Methods

Add​Config​Documentation

public static method AddConfigDocumentation → (1)

doc in : ConfigDoc

[not-null]
The documentation.

Specifies the config documentation for a module.

Dependencies

[OwnerReturn]
public static method Dependencies → ()

returns → Graph<TinmanModule>

The dependency graph.

Computes a dependency graph of all library modules (source depends on target).

For

public static method For → (1)

guid in : GUID

The GUID value.

returns → TinmanModule

The module or null if not found.

Retrieves a module by its GUID.

Initialize

public static method Initialize → ()

Initializes the Tinman 3D library.

Before calling this method, call IPleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks.PleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks on the top-level module(s) of the enclosing application. Then, based on the collected module dependencies (see Dependencies), this method will call IPleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks.PleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks and DoInitialize on all modules.

This method may be called repeatedly, subsequent invocations have no effect.

LicenceException

If LicenceDomain.Tinman is still locked.

LowLevel.PlatformForce

Resource

2 overloads

public method Resource1 → (1)

resourceName in : string

[not-null]
The name of the embedded resource.

returns → Path

The canonical resource path.

Returns the canonical path to the given embedded resource.

IOException

If the given resourceName in is not a valid path name.

public method Resource2 → (1)

resourceName in : Path

[not-null]
The name of the embedded resource.

returns → Path

The canonical resource path.

Returns the canonical path to the given embedded resource.

Shutdown

[Shutdown]
public static method Shutdown → ()

Shuts down the Tinman 3D library.

Before calling this method, make sure to relinquish ownership of all IDisposable objects. This method will call DoShutdown on all modules.

This method may be called repeatedly, subsequent invocations have no effect.

System​Info

public static method SystemInfo → (1)

columns opt : int32 = 100

[>0]
Maximum number of text column.

returns → string

The system information dump.

Collects textual information about the runtime environment and code modules.

To​String

2 overloads

public method ToString2 → (1)

includeBuildDate in : bool

Include the build date?

returns → string

The string representation.

Returns a string representation of this module.

Public / Attributes

All

public static attribute All → (get)

value : IVectorConst<TinmanModule>

[not-null]
The list of all library modules.

Returns all library modules.

Modules without dependencies come first.

Config​Documentation

public attribute ConfigDocumentation → (get)

value : ConfigDoc

The ConfigDoc object or null if no documentation has been loaded yet.

Returns the config documentation for this module.

Config​Types

public attribute ConfigTypes → (get)

value : ConfigType [ ]

[not-null]
The list of config types.

Returns all ConfigTypes this module owns.

Guid

public attribute Guid → (get)

value : GUID

The GUID.

Returns the GUID of this module.

Info

public abstract attribute Info → (get)

value : BuildInformation

[not-null]
The build information object.

The build information object of this library module.

Settings

public attribute Settings → (get)

value : Path

[not-null]
The settings directory.

Canonical path to directory where to put user-specific settings.

The directory will be created, if necessary.

IOException

If an I/O error has occurred.

Protected / Constructors

Tinman​Module

protected constructor TinmanModule → (1)

guid in : string

[not-empty]
The GUID of this module.

Creates a new instance of TinmanModule.

Protected / Methods

Collect​Dependencies

protected abstract method CollectDependencies → (1)

dependencies in : IBag<TinmanModule>

[not-null]
The set to use for collecting.

Collects those TinmanModule module descriptors this module directly depends on.

Collect​System​Info

[EmptyBody]
protected virtual method CollectSystemInfo → (1)

writer in : SourceCodeWriter

[not-null]
The text writer to use.

Collects textual system information for debugging purposes.

IOException

If an I/O error has occurred while writing to writer in.

Do​Initialize

[EmptyBody]
protected virtual method DoInitialize → ()

Initializes this Tinman module.

Do​Shutdown

[EmptyBody]
protected virtual method DoShutdown → ()

Shuts down this Tinman module.

Register​Resource

protected method RegisterResource → (2)

resourceName in : string

[not-null]
The resource name.

extract opt : bool = false

false to treat resourceName in as a single resource.
true to treat resourceName in as a ZIP archive:
the resource will be extracted and each resulting file will be registered as a separate resource, using the following name, which is constructed by appending the these name parts:

  1. The value of resourceName in, without the last path element (i.e. the filename of the ZIP archive).

  2. The last path element of resourceName in, without the filename suffix (e.g. '.zip').

  3. The ZIP entry name, treating '/' characters as directory separators.

For example, given a resourceName in`'SomeDir/Data.zip'` and a ZIP archive containing entries 'abc/data.dat' and 'info.txt', the following resources would be registered:

SomeDir/Data/abc/data.dat
SomeDir/Data/info.txt
returns → bool

true if the resource has been registered successfully,
false if not (see error log message for details).

Registers an embedded binary resource.

If the resource cannot be found, an error log message is generated and the method returns silently.

IOException

If extract opt is true and the resource is not a valid ZIP archive.
