Is it possible to dynamically create objects or modify them on run-time ?for example,on button click,another button created or change number of lines of a road?
When I write this code for a button Action,in run-time
road123.setBackwardLanesCount(3);
I get error below:
root:
road123: Markup element is already initiated and cannot be modified.Please use constructor without arguments,perform setup and finally call initialize() .function
You'll get that error with any object you attempt to create at runtime using a parameterized constructor. If you create the object with a simple constructor (just "()") and then set all of the parameters individually, you won't run into that issue. Check the Anylogic API for specific information about the object you are using, because some require you to call .initiliaze() on that object after setting all of it's parameters if you created it using a simple constructor. Furthermore, if you want to add the object to the screen at runtime you'll need to add this code to the function that creates it:
#Override
public void onDraw( Panel panel, Graphics2D graphics) {
obj.drawModel(panel, graphics, true);
}
where obj is replaced with the name of the object you created dynamically.

I'm attempting to dynamically add Manipulation Events to a ManipulationHandler that is being added to child objects of a parent. The parent object will be what the user is inspecting, but the user will be able to grab parts off of the parent and inspect them more closely. (i.e. you can look at an engine (parent object), but if you want to inspect the pistons (child objects) you can grab them and look at them)
Instead of having to go into every child object and manually add it in Unity I'd like to be able to add the parent object and just procedurally add the ManipulationHandler and ManipulationEvents on start or awake.
So far I have the following code for adding the ManipulationHandler script, but to add the ManipulationEvent I'm not sure how to set up the pointers so I can use the script and function I want from the source:
gameObject.AddComponent<ManipulationHandler>();
ManipulationHandler handler = gameObject.GetComponent<ManipulationHandler>();
ManipulationEvent newevent = new ManipulationEvent();
ManipulationEventData eventdata = new ManipulationEventData();
eventdata.ManipulationSource = gameObject;
The program works when I grab the objects, but I'd like to add manipulation events when I grab them so I can display additional data.
I see there's a getter and setter for Pointer in ManipulationEventData, but I'm not sure how to instantiate IMixedRealityPointer and how to get it to work. I'm also not sure if that's the object I actually need to accomplish what I'd like to accomplish.
I apologize in advance if I've missed something obvious. I'm new to MRTK.
Thanks!
The ManipulationHandler has four callback events among them OnManipulationStarted and OnManipulationEnded you can simply add listeners to. (see UnityEvent.AddListener)
Unless I understood your question wrong you don't have to instantiate any IMixedRealityPointer. You don't create the event data yourself but rather the ManipulationHandler feeds these events with the current event data including the interacting pointer information. The ManipulationHandler uses OnPointerDown and OnPointerDragged and OnPointerUp via the IMixedRealityPointerHandler interface in order to manage the interacting pointers and invokes the according events where needed.
Instead of using AddComponent followed by GetComponent directly store and use the return value of AddComponent which will be the reference of the newly added Component. MRTK also has an extension method
T EnsureComponent<T>(this Component component) where T : Component
so that you can simply use e.g.
var handler = this.EnsureComponent<ManipulationHandler>();
which internally first checks whether the component already exists, and if not it adds it.
Note that in order to enable near interactions you will also need a NearInteractionGrabbable so you should add this one too.
You also will have to make sure that your objects have some sort of Collider attached to the same GameObject as the NearInteractionGrabbable.
...
gameObject.transform.EnsureComponnet<NearInteractionGrabbable>();
var handler = gameObject.transform.EnsureComponnet<ManipulationHandler>();
handler.OnManipulationStarted.AddListener(HandleOnManipulationStarted);
handler.OnManipulationEnded.AddListener(HandleOnManipulationEnded);
...
/// <summary>
/// If you need it later you need to store the pointer since unfortunately in
/// OnManipulationEnded the <see cref="ManipulationEventData.Pointer"/> is null
/// (no idea why they do it this way :D )
/// </summary>
private IMixedRealityPointer _pointer;
private void HandleOnManipulationStarted(ManipulationEventData eventData)
{
_pointer = eventData.Pointer;
// whatever shall happen when manipulation started
}
private void HandleOnManipulationEnded(ManipulationEventData eventData)
{
// whatever shall happen when manipulation ended
}
Note: I am not sure if this thing you are trying to achieve is possible with this architecture ... it is very possible that nesting various ManipulationHanlder leads to strange behavior here and there. Especially very small parts will be almost impossible to grab ...
In Eclipse CDT at DefaultBinaryFileEditor class, in the method getStorage there is a comment that tells the line objdump.getOutput(limitBytes) is a UI blocking call...
How can I make it run in background without UI Blocking to process longer files than it is stated with parameter int limitBytes = 6*1024*1024;
I can access org.eclipse.cdt.utils.Objdump class' getOutput method via plugin.xml extension point "org.eclipse.cdt.core.BinaryParser"...
I tried to replace the class that is used in extension point "org.eclipse.ui.editors" in editor tag with id "org.eclipse.cdt.ui.binaryEditor" via my plugin.xml, but this did not worked.
I put a boolean flag to outer class and in inner class BinaryFileEditorInput in method getStorage I put a Job and before this job works I created an empty fStorage = new FileStorage. I return this empty fstorage. So first the editor gets blank. Then when the objdump.getOutput(limitBytes) method returns in job, I set the fStorage to the returned output. I simply call the outer class'es refresh method. I put a reference of created outer class to inner static class in outerclasses constructor. This way I can access the refresh method. Also I moved fStorage varible to outerclass because refresh method triggers creating a new inner class so it overrides the valuable fStorage variable.
Finally If you want to update the opened elf file editor when you build the project again, assign the boolean variable and fStorage to first values in method resourceChanged before calling refresh method.
Using Vala 0.30, how do you find a GTK child widget by name?
The main code calls a function to set up the application layout:
text.application_layout ();
The function creates the window and layout boxes.
class Example : Gtk.Window
{
public void application_layout ()
I want unrelated code to place content in some of the boxes. In C + GTK I could define the window as a global variable and any code could find a child box then add content. I cannot find a working equivalent in Vala.
Jen suggested using Container.get_children(). I will experiment with that. In the previous C code, the get_children approach produced thousands of children when a grid was populated.
Some Web pages show Vala classes with public strings. Vala will not compile the examples of a class when the public variable is a GTK widget. I also tried a dozen variations that work in other languages and fail in Vala.
Finally I found a way to have a public GTK widget that can be found by other code. The following compiles. All the online examples are slightly different and fail to compile in the current Vala.
class Example : Gtk.Window
{
public Grid example_grid = new Grid ();
public void application_layout ()
If this is the only option, I will have to make many items public public.
I will still have the problem of finding the last child in a variable length set of children, something like the last label added to a box or the last row added to a grid. I would like to label items in a long list with a name like last then find it direct instead of reading through a thousand children every time.
Another update. The following grid definition works from within the class. It works from other methods of the class when called within the class.
class Example : Gtk.Window
{
public Grid example_grid;
this.directory_grid = new Grid ();
My main code has var example = new Example(); and passes the example object to other code that needs user interface elements. The other code can then access example.example_grid or a method that updates example.grid. This means changing the other code to accept the example object.
I found then lost a page showing how you can access the main window object without having the object passed to the function. If I can find that again, it would let me access example.example_grid without having to change the code to pass the example object. This is getting close to a solution.
I have splitted my application into two main areas.
Part(A)
PartStashContainer(B)
The content of A should be set based on what user wants.
So basically i can have 1..N classes which could be used in Class URI of Part in application model.
I don't know if i should replace the whole Part(A) with new dynamically created Part(C) which has content i want, or i should somehow to modify the existing Part (call setContributionURI, or setObject methods on Part object?).
It does make more sense to me to modify the existing Part, because it is defined in Application model and therefore already describing the location where the content should be.
Possible solutions:
Modify the Part object so it "reload" its content based on new setup (But how? Can setContributionURI or setObject methods help?)
Remove the old Part and add dynamically on same place in Application model the new Part (using EModelService and EPartService).
other solution??
If you want to reuse the Part then do something like:
MPart part = find or inject your part
MyClass myClass = (MyClass)part.getObject();
... call a method of MyClass to change the contents
MyClass is the class you specify for the object in the application model. You should add a method to that to let you change the contents.
Don't try to call setObject, this is really only for use by Eclipse. I don't think setContributionURI would do anything after the part is created (but I am not sure).
If you want to use different classes for the different data then you really should use different Parts.
I'm trying to bind a list/arraylist/hashmap/etc of custom objects to my form in JSP using Spring. Right now, the controller creates a Map of the two lists (Boolean list and custom object list) in referenceData(), and provides it to the form which uses those values to populate the fields. The values are initialized from a MySQL database using Hibernate, and all that works fine. The list is a known length before the form is initialized, so that part is easier. Now what I'd like to do is correctly bind those objects in the form, so that when there are changes made, I can detect that in onSubmit() (or wherever is appropriate), and update the database accordingly. I can't seem to bind them correctly in the form so that I can see changes made. I tried just using a list of the form fields as the model, but even that wasn't working correctly. Do I just need to inject the list in a particular way? Any ideas or examples here? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
UPDATE: At Ralph's request here is the solution I used:
In my data object class, I lazy loaded a map using MapUtils.lazyMap(), with a String key and other custom object value. The other custom object is just a class that contains List<String> and getters/setters. In the corresponding .jsp file, I just nest several loops to loop through the keys first using loop.current.key and then loop2.current.value.paramsList to loop through the values for that key. This was not really what I asked for in my original post, as I was looking for a more general solution, and the lazy loading pointed me in the right direction.
In Spring 2 you need a special List in your Command object, that is able to grow if one add the x-th element event if the list has not this size yet.
One way to do that is to use LayzList decorator from commons-collections.
#Override
protected Object formBackingObject(final HttpServletRequest request)
throws Exception {
List<PosterSelectionRow> posterSelectionRowList = LazyList.decorate(
new ArrayList<PosterSelectionRow>(),
new PosterSelectionRowListFactory());
return new PosterSelectionCommand(posterSelectionRowList);
//PosterSelectionCommand contains a list of selected poster rows
}
private static class PosterSelectionRowListFactory
implements org.apache.commons.collections.Factory {
/** Invoked if the list need a new element */
public Object create() {
return = new PosterSelectionRow();
}
}
When I remember right, there is a way without that Factory stuff, but I am not sure.
