Detailed Description

The IFilter interfaces provides methods for controlling a filter.

All filters expose this interface. A FilterGraph uses this interface to control the filters state and connections. Applications can use this interface to enumerate pins and query other filter information, but should not use it to change the state of a filter. Instead, use the adtf::ucom::_runtime refernce to change system level when using in default ADTF Launcher Application. The default implementation of FilterGraph used in adtf::services::ant::ISessionManager will manage the filters state by run level change events.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ tFilterState

enum tFilterState : uint8_t

strong

specifies the several types of filter states

See also: Filter State Machine

Enumerator
State_Shutdown	Filter is New / Shutdown.
State_Constructed	The Filter is fully created (`Init(StageFirst)` has been called): Static Pins (IPin) are created and published via IDataBinding. Static Runners (IRunner) are created and published via IRuntimeBehaviour. Binding Objects are created and published via IInterfaceBinding. Properties are set and can be read if any.
State_Initialized	The Filter is fully initialized (`Init(StageNormal)` has been called): Pins (IPin) depending on properties are created and published via IDataBinding. Runners (IRunner) depending on properties are created and published via IRuntimeBehaviour. Binding Objects depending on properties are created and published via IInterfaceBinding.
State_Ready	The Filter is ready for streaming (`Init(StageGraphReady)` has been called): All dynamic pins, binding objects, runners are requested before this state and must be registered !! The filter is connected now. Remark: Pins, Runners, Binding Objects created here will not be taken in concern!
State_Running	Filter is in streaming State, all pins are activated for streaming (`Start()` has been called): The filter is receiving Triggers.

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetState()

virtual tFilterState GetState ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the state of the filter.

The GetState method retrieves the filters state.

Returns: Returns the filters current state.

See also: IFilter::tFilterState, Filter State Machine

◆ SetState()

virtual tResult SetState ( tFilterState eFilterState )

pure virtual

Sets the state of the filter.

The SetState method sets the filters state. See cFilterBase how the state machine should be implemented.

See also: Filter State Machine

Parameters

eFilterState [in] The filters state to switch to.

Returns: Returns a standard result code.
