Etymology

A class for getting values from the Aipsrc files

Synopsis

The static AipsrcValue class can get typed values from the Aipsrc resource files.
The basic interaction with the class is with the static keyword match functions:

Bool AipsrcValue<Type>::find(Type &result, const String &keyword)
Bool AipsrcValue<Type>::find(Type &result, const String &keyword,
const Type &deflt)

comparable to the standard (String) Aipsrc find.
If the resource file contains a multi-valued keyword, use the AipsrcVector class instead.

The class is templated. For ease of use typedefs are provided for:

In addition to the above finds, special finds:

Bool AipsrcValue<Type>::find(Type &result, const String &keyword,
const Unit &defun, const Unit &resun)
Bool AipsrcValue<Type>::find(Type &result, const String &keyword,
const Unit &defun, const Unit &resun,
const Type &deflt)

are provided. These finds will read the keyword value as a Quantity. If no units are given, the defun are assumed. The result is converted to the resun, before the value is returned. E.g.

Double x;
find(x, "time.offset", "h", "d");

will return:

The class has registerRC, get, set functions as described in Aipsrc. Note that registration is on a per Type basis, and hence registration of the same keyword in different types (and possible sets) act on different values, but with the same result if no set has been done.

Specialisation exists for Bool, where True is any value string starting with one of 'yYtT123456789', and False in all other cases, and no finds with Units are provided. Strings are supposed to be handled by standard Aipsrc class for single values, and a specialisation exists for the AipsrcVector case.

Example

String tzoff; // result of keyword find
if (!AipsrcValue<Double>::find(tzoff, "time.zone.offset")) { // look for key
tzoff = -5;
};

A more convenient way of accomplishing the same result is:

AipsrcDouble::find(tzoff, "time.zone.offset", -5);

or even:

AipsrcDouble::find(tzoff, "time.zone.offset",
"h", "h", -5);

Here the final argument is the default to use if the keyword is not found at all.

Template Type Argument Requirements

Motivation

Programs need a way to interact with the AipsrcValue files.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T >
static Bool casacore::AipsrcValue< T >::find ( T &  value,
const String keyword 
)
static

The find() functions will, given a keyword, return the value of a matched keyword found in the files.

If no match found the function will be False, and the default returned if specified.

template<class T >
static Bool casacore::AipsrcValue< T >::find ( T &  value,
const String keyword,
const T &  deflt 
)
static
template<class T >
static Bool casacore::AipsrcValue< T >::find ( T &  value,
const String keyword,
const Unit defun,
const Unit resun 
)
static

These find() functions will, given a keyword, read the value of a matched keyword as a Quantity.

If no unit has been given in the keyword value, the defun Unit will be assumed. The value returned will be converted to the resun Unit. If no match found, the default value is returned (see example above).

const Unit defun,

template<class T >

static

Gets are like find, but using registered integers rather than names.

The aipsrc file is read only once, and values can be set as well.

template<class T >

Functions to register keywords for later use in get() and set().

The returned value is the index for get() and set().

Save registered value to $HOME/.aipsrc

Sets allow registered values to be set.
