Detailed Description

Database of root Action objects that can be used to transform a function.

This is a container for Action objects. It also manages root Action objects, which encapsulate a complete transformation system that can be applied to functions. Root Action objects are derived from a single universal Action object that has every possible sub-action within it. A root Action has its own name and is derived from the universal via a grouplist, which lists a particular subset of Action and Rule groups to use for the root. A new root Action is created by providing a new grouplist via setGroup() or modifying an existing grouplist. This class is intended to be instantiated as a singleton and keeps track of the current root Action, which is the one that will be actively applied to functions.

Member Function Documentation

addToGroup()

bool ActionDatabase::addToGroup	(	const string &	grp,
		const string &	basegroup
	)

Add a group to a root Action.

Add a group to the grouplist for a particular root Action. Do not use to redefine a root Action that has already been instantiated.

Parameters

grp	is the name of the root Action
basegroup	is the group to add

Returns

true for a new addition, false is the group was already present

cloneGroup()

void ActionDatabase::cloneGroup	(	const string &	oldname,
		const string &	newname
	)

Clone a root Action.

Copy an existing root Action by copying its grouplist, giving it a new name. This is suitable for a copy then modify strategy to create a new root Action. Do not use to redefine a root Action that has already been instantiated

Parameters

oldname	is the name of an existing root Action
newname	is the name of the copy

removeFromGroup()

bool ActionDatabase::removeFromGroup	(	const string &	grp,
		const string &	basegrp
	)

Remove a group from a root Action.

The group is removed from the grouplist of a root Action. Do not use to redefine a root Action that has already been instantiated.

Parameters

grp	is the name of the root Action
basegrp	is the group to remove

Returns

true if the group existed and was removed

resetDefaults()

void ActionDatabase::resetDefaults

(

void

)

(Re)set the default configuration

Clear out (possibly altered) root Actions. Reset the default groups. Set the default root action "decompile"

setCurrent()

Action * ActionDatabase::setCurrent

(

const string &

actname

)

Set the current root Action.

The Action is specified by name. A grouplist must already exist for this name. If the Action doesn't already exist, it will be derived from the universal action via this grouplist.

Parameters

actname

is the name of the root Action

setGroup()

void ActionDatabase::setGroup	(	const string &	grp,
		const char **	argv
	)

Establish a new root Action.

(Re)set the grouplist for a particular root Action. Do not use this routine to redefine an existing root Action.

Parameters

grp	is the name of the root Action
argv	is a list of static char pointers, which must end with a NULL pointer, or a zero length string.

toggleAction()

Action * ActionDatabase::toggleAction	(	const string &	grp,
		const string &	basegrp,
		bool	val
	)

Toggle a group of Actions with a root Action.

A particular group is either added or removed from the grouplist defining a particular root Action. The root Action is then (re)derived from the universal

Parameters

grp	is the name of the root Action
basegrp	is name of group (within the grouplist) to toggle
val	is true if the group should be added or false if it should be removed

Returns

the modified root Action

universalAction()

void ActionDatabase::universalAction

(

Architecture *

conf

)

Build the universal action.

Construct the universal Action that contains all possible components

Parameters

conf	is the Architecture that will use the Action
