Synopsis

This class is a helper class for TableMeasDescBase to know the type of measure it is dealing with.
It eases the process of converting reference codes to their strings and vice-versa. It also writes the measure type to a record to assist in making table measure definitions persistent.

Example

Create the object for an epoch measure. TableMeasType mtype (MEpoch()); Get the code for the given string. uInt code = mtype.refCode ("UTC");

Motivation

Creating the required keyword for the definition of a Measure in a Table is somewhat complicated. This class assists in that process.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

casacore::TableMeasType::TableMeasType ( )
casacore::TableMeasType::TableMeasType ( const Measure )
explicit

Construct from the given type of measure.

casacore::TableMeasType::TableMeasType ( const TableMeasType that)

Copy constructor (copy semantics).

casacore::TableMeasType::~TableMeasType ( )

Member Function Documentation

TableMeasType& casacore::TableMeasType::operator= ( const TableMeasType that)

Assignment operator (copy semantics)

uInt casacore::TableMeasType::refCode ( const String refString) const

Returns the reference code for this object given a string.

Throws an exception if the refString is invalid for this object.

const String& casacore::TableMeasType::refType ( uInt  refCode) const

Translates the refCode for the descriptors measure type.

void casacore::TableMeasType::toRecord ( RecordInterface rec)

Creates a record from the MeasureHolder.

const String& casacore::TableMeasType::type ( ) const

Returns the descriptor's measure type as a String.
