Detailed Description

template<typename Type>
class juce::CachedValue< Type >

This class acts as a typed wrapper around a property inside a ValueTree.

A CachedValue provides an easy way to read and write a ValueTree property with a chosen type. So for example a CachedValue<int> allows you to read or write the property as an int, and a CachedValue<String> lets you work with it as a String.

It also allows efficient access to the value, by caching a copy of it in the type that is being used.

You can give the CachedValue an optional UndoManager which it will use when writing to the underlying ValueTree.

If the property inside the ValueTree is missing, the CachedValue will automatically return an optional default value, which can be specified when initialising the CachedValue.

To create one, you can either use the constructor to attach the CachedValue to a ValueTree, or can create an uninitialised CachedValue with its default constructor and then attach it later with the referTo() methods.

Common types like String, int, double which can be easily converted to a var should work out-of-the-box, but if you want to use more complex custom types, you may need to implement some template specialisations of VariantConverter which this class uses to convert between the type and the ValueTree's internal var.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ CachedValue() [1/3]

template<typename Type >

juce::CachedValue< Type >::CachedValue ( )

inlinedefault

Default constructor.

Creates a default CachedValue not referring to any property. To initialise the object, call one of the referTo() methods.

◆ CachedValue() [2/3]

template<typename Type >

juce::CachedValue< Type >::CachedValue	(	ValueTree &	tree,
		const Identifier &	propertyID,
		UndoManager *	undoManager
	)

inline

Constructor.

Creates a CachedValue referring to a Value property inside a ValueTree. If you use this constructor, the fallback value will be a default-constructed instance of Type.

Parameters

tree	The ValueTree containing the property
propertyID	The identifier of the property
undoManager	The UndoManager to use when writing to the property

References juce::ValueTree::addListener(), and juce::CachedValue< Type >::targetTree.

◆ CachedValue() [3/3]

template<typename Type >

juce::CachedValue< Type >::CachedValue	(	ValueTree &	tree,
		const Identifier &	propertyID,
		UndoManager *	undoManager,
		const Type &	defaultToUse
	)

inline

Constructor.

Creates a default Cached Value referring to a Value property inside a ValueTree, and specifies a fallback value to use if the property does not exist.

Parameters

tree	The ValueTree containing the property
propertyID	The identifier of the property
undoManager	The UndoManager to use when writing to the property
defaultToUse	The fallback default value to use.

References juce::ValueTree::addListener(), and juce::CachedValue< Type >::targetTree.

Member Function Documentation

◆ forceUpdateOfCachedValue()

template<typename Type >

void juce::CachedValue< Type >::forceUpdateOfCachedValue

inline

Force an update in case the referenced property has been changed from elsewhere.

Note: The CachedValue is a ValueTree::Listener and therefore will be informed of changes of the referenced property anyway (and update itself). But this may happen asynchronously. forceUpdateOfCachedValue() forces an update immediately.

◆ get()

Type juce::CachedValue< Type >::get ( ) const

inlinenoexcept

Returns the current value of the property.

If the property does not exist, returns the fallback default value.

References juce::CachedValue< Type >::cachedValue.

template<typename Type >

Type juce::CachedValue< Type >::getDefault ( ) const

inline

Returns the current fallback default value.

References juce::CachedValue< Type >::defaultValue.

template<typename Type >

Value juce::CachedValue< Type >::getPropertyAsValue

inline

Returns the current property as a Value object.

◆ operator Type()

template<typename Type >

juce::CachedValue< Type >::operator Type ( ) const

inlinenoexcept

◆ operator!=()

template<typename Type >

template<typename OtherType >

bool juce::CachedValue< Type >::operator!= ( const OtherType & other ) const

inline

template<typename Type >

template<typename OtherType >

bool juce::CachedValue< Type >::operator== ( const OtherType & other ) const

inline

Returns true if the current value of the property (or the fallback value) is equal to other.

References juce::CachedValue< Type >::cachedValue.

template<typename Type >

void juce::CachedValue< Type >::referTo	(	ValueTree &	tree,
		const Identifier &	property,
		UndoManager *	um

◆ valueTreeChildAdded()

virtual void juce::ValueTree::Listener::valueTreeChildAdded	(	ValueTree &	parentTree,
		ValueTree &	childWhichHasBeenAdded
	)

virtualinherited

This method is called when a child sub-tree is added.

Note that when you register a listener to a tree, it will receive this callback for child changes in both that tree and any of its children, (recursively, at any depth). If your tree has sub-trees but you only want to know about changes to the top level tree, just check the parentTree parameter to make sure it's the one that you're interested in.

Reimplemented in juce::AudioProcessorValueTreeState, juce::ComponentBuilder, and juce::ValueTreeSynchroniser.

◆ valueTreeChildOrderChanged()

virtual void juce::ValueTree::Listener::valueTreeChildOrderChanged	(	ValueTree &	parentTreeWhoseChildrenHaveMoved,
		int	oldIndex,
		int	newIndex
	)

virtualinherited

This method is called when a tree's children have been re-shuffled.

Note that when you register a listener to a tree, it will receive this callback for child changes in both that tree and any of its children, (recursively, at any depth). If your tree has sub-trees but you only want to know about changes to the top level tree, just check the parameter to make sure it's the tree that you're interested in.

Reimplemented in juce::ComponentBuilder, and juce::ValueTreeSynchroniser.

◆ valueTreeChildRemoved()

virtual void juce::ValueTree::Listener::valueTreeChildRemoved	(	ValueTree &	parentTree,
		ValueTree &	childWhichHasBeenRemoved,
		int	indexFromWhichChildWasRemoved
	)

virtualinherited

This method is called when a child sub-tree is removed.

Note that when you register a listener to a tree, it will receive this callback for child changes in both that tree and any of its children, (recursively, at any depth). If your tree has sub-trees but you only want to know about changes to the top level tree, just check the parentTree parameter to make sure it's the one that you're interested in.

Reimplemented in juce::ComponentBuilder, and juce::ValueTreeSynchroniser.

◆ valueTreeParentChanged()

virtual void juce::ValueTree::Listener::valueTreeParentChanged ( ValueTree & treeWhoseParentHasChanged )

virtualinherited

This method is called when a tree has been added or removed from a parent.

This callback happens when the tree to which the listener was registered is added or removed from a parent. Unlike the other callbacks, it applies only to the tree to which the listener is registered, and not to any of its children.

Reimplemented in juce::ComponentBuilder.

◆ valueTreePropertyChanged()

template<typename Type >

void juce::CachedValue< Type >::valueTreePropertyChanged	(	ValueTree &	treeWhosePropertyHasChanged,
		const Identifier &	property
	)

inlineoverrideprivatevirtual

This method is called when a property of this tree (or of one of its sub-trees) is changed.

Note that when you register a listener to a tree, it will receive this callback for property changes in that tree, and also for any of its children, (recursively, at any depth). If your tree has sub-trees but you only want to know about changes to the top level tree, simply check the tree parameter in this callback to make sure it's the tree you're interested in.

Reimplemented from juce::ValueTree::Listener.

◆ valueTreeRedirected()

virtual void juce::ValueTree::Listener::valueTreeRedirected ( ValueTree & treeWhichHasBeenChanged )

virtualinherited

This method is called when a tree is made to point to a different internal shared object.

When operator= is used to make a ValueTree refer to a different object, this callback will be made.

Reimplemented in juce::AudioProcessorValueTreeState.
