The Inspector type exposes the following members.

Constructors

  NameDescription
Public methodInspector

Methods

  NameDescription
Public methodChildEnumerator
An enumerator to pass through all the child objects (not recursively) for a specific type
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public methodCreateObjRef
Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object.
(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected methodDisableObject
Used by external API sets, like Physics, to Disable the object in the simulation
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Protected methodEnableObject
Used by external API sets, like Physics, to Enable the object in the simulation
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodFinaliseSimulation
Dispose of the PM form, if still open
(Overrides SceneObject..::.FinaliseSimulation()()().)
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as a hash function for a particular type. GetHashCode()()() is suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetLifetimeService
Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance.
(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected methodgetname
Application title is assumed to be read-only, not much of a need to change it during runtime
(Inherited from IcarusApplication.)
Protected methodgettitle (Overrides IcarusApplication..::.gettitle()()().)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodInitApplication
This routine is not called as the Inspector is not added into the normal Applications library
(Overrides IcarusApplication..::.InitApplication(Project).)
Public methodInitialiseSimulation
Initialise the object at the start of Simulation. This hierarchially calls all InitialiseSimulations in all children Note that if the object is Disabled at the time of main simulation start, then InitialiseSimulation is NOT called. It is up to the developer to determine if a live call is needed should Enabled be set to True later.
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public methodInitializeLifetimeService
Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance.
(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Public methodInitThreadSafe (Overrides IcarusApplication..::.InitThreadSafe()()().)
Protected methodMemberwiseCloneOverloaded.
Public methodOnHideApplication (Overrides IcarusApplication..::.OnHideApplication()()().)
Public methodOnMouseClick
On Mouse Click event
(Inherited from IcarusApplication.)
Public methodOnMouseDown
On Mouse Down event
(Inherited from IcarusApplication.)
Public methodOnMouseMove
On Mouse Move event
(Inherited from IcarusApplication.)
Public methodOnMouseUp
On Mouse Up event
(Inherited from IcarusApplication.)
Public methodOnShowApplication (Overrides IcarusApplication..::.OnShowApplication()()().)
Public methodRenderDesign
Render the object as a design element. This is intended to be overriden by descendents. Once overridden, it can also be called to recursively render all Child objects. In general, for rendering, do not wrap a push/pop matrix around this function, keep the matrices clean and the behaviour consistent.
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public methodRenderNormal
Render the object normally. This is intended to be overriden by descendents. Once overridden, it can also be called to recursively render all Child objects. In general, for rendering, do not wrap a push/pop matrix around this function, keep the matrices clean and the behaviour consistent.
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public methodStepSimulation
Advance the simulation by the specified timestep
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public methodToString
Returns a String that represents the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)

Fields

  NameDescription
Public fieldChildren
List of all the child objects underneath this object
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Protected fieldisLocked (Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public fieldPATH
Relative path to the application folder (includes last path separator) This string is pre-computed by Icarus prior to calling InitApplication
(Inherited from IcarusApplication.)
Public fieldpmform
The WinForm that represents the visual element

Properties

  NameDescription
Public propertyEnabled
If Enabled, the Object will participate in the Scene and Render accordingly. Also, if Enabled, all child objects will subsequently Step the Simulation and Render accordingly.
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public propertyFocused
Determines whether the form currently has focus or not
Public propertyLocked
Locked represents a Designer feature only. It is used to determine whether the object can currently be selected
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
Public propertyName
The Name of the object, used by the Designer. Calls getname() to get the current name
(Inherited from SceneObject.)
