nt::GenericSubscriber::GenericSubscriber ( )

◆ GenericSubscriber() [2/2]

nt::GenericSubscriber::GenericSubscriber ( NT_Subscriber  handle)
inlineexplicit

Construct from a subscriber handle; recommended to use Topic::GenericSubscribe() instead.

Parameters
handleNative handle

Member Function Documentation

◆ Get()

Value nt::GenericSubscriber::Get ( ) const
inline

Get the last published value.

If no value has been published, returns a value with unassigned type.

Returns
value

◆ GetBoolean()

bool nt::GenericSubscriber::GetBoolean ( bool  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a boolean.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value

◆ GetBooleanArray()

std::vector< int > nt::GenericSubscriber::GetBooleanArray ( std::span< const int >  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a boolean array.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value
Note
This makes a copy of the array. If the overhead of this is a concern, use GetValue() instead.
The returned array is std::vector<int> instead of std::vector<bool> because std::vector<bool> is special-cased in C++. 0 is false, any non-zero value is true.

◆ GetDouble()

double nt::GenericSubscriber::GetDouble ( double  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a double.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value

◆ GetDoubleArray()

std::vector< double > nt::GenericSubscriber::GetDoubleArray ( std::span< const double >  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a double array.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value
Note
This makes a copy of the array. If the overhead of this is a concern, use GetValue() instead.

◆ GetFloat()

float nt::GenericSubscriber::GetFloat ( float  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a float.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value

◆ GetFloatArray()

std::vector< float > nt::GenericSubscriber::GetFloatArray ( std::span< const float >  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a float array.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value
Note
This makes a copy of the array. If the overhead of this is a concern, use GetValue() instead.

◆ GetInteger()

int64_t nt::GenericSubscriber::GetInteger ( int64_t  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a integer.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value

◆ GetIntegerArray()

std::vector< int64_t > nt::GenericSubscriber::GetIntegerArray ( std::span< const int64_t >  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a integer array.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value
Note
This makes a copy of the array. If the overhead of this is a concern, use GetValue() instead.

◆ GetRaw()

std::vector< uint8_t > nt::GenericSubscriber::GetRaw ( std::span< const uint8_t >  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a raw.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value

◆ GetString()

std::string nt::GenericSubscriber::GetString ( std::string_view  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a string.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value

◆ GetStringArray()

std::vector< std::string > nt::GenericSubscriber::GetStringArray ( std::span< const std::string >  defaultValue) const
inline

Gets the entry's value as a string array.

If the entry does not exist or is of different type, it will return the default value.

Parameters
defaultValuethe value to be returned if no value is found
Returns
the entry's value or the given default value
Note
This makes a copy of the array. If the overhead of this is a concern, use GetValue() instead.

◆ GetTopic()

Topic nt::GenericSubscriber::GetTopic ( ) const
inline

Get the corresponding topic.

Returns
Topic

◆ ReadQueue()

std::vector< Value > nt::GenericSubscriber::ReadQueue ( )
inline

Get an array of all value changes since the last call to ReadQueue.

Also provides a timestamp for each value.

Note
The "poll storage" subscribe option can be used to set the queue depth.
Returns
Array of timestamped values; empty array if no new changes have been published since the previous call.
