Detailed Description

File Storage Node class.

The node is used to store each and every element of the file storage opened for reading. When XML/YAML file is read, it is first parsed and stored in the memory as a hierarchical collection of nodes. Each node can be a “leaf” that is contain a single number or a string, or be a collection of other nodes. There can be named collections (mappings) where each element has a name and it is accessed by a name, and ordered collections (sequences) where elements do not have names but rather accessed by index. Type of the file node can be determined using FileNode::type method.

Note that file nodes are only used for navigating file storages opened for reading. When a file storage is opened for writing, no data is stored in memory after it is written.

Examples:

filestorage.cpp.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum cv::FileNode::Type

type of the file storage node

Enumerator
NONE	empty node
INT	an integer
REAL	floating-point number
FLOAT	synonym or REAL
STR	text string in UTF-8 encoding
STRING	synonym for STR
REF	integer of size size_t. Typically used for storing complex dynamic structures where some elements reference the others
SEQ	sequence
MAP	mapping
TYPE_MASK
FLOW	compact representation of a sequence or mapping. Used only by YAML writer
USER	a registered object (e.g. a matrix)
EMPTY	empty structure (sequence or mapping)
NAMED	the node has a name (i.e. it is element of a mapping)

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

cv::FileNode::FileNode

(

)

The constructors.

These constructors are used to create a default file node, construct it from obsolete structures or from the another file node.

Referenced by cv::FileNodeIterator::operator<().

Here is the caller graph for this function:

cv::FileNode::FileNode	(	const CvFileStorage *	fs,
		const CvFileNode *	node

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Parameters

fs	Pointer to the obsolete file storage structure.
node	File node to be used as initialization for the created file node.
