class OcaStreamConnector : OcaAgent
DEPRECATED CLASS Replaced by the OcaMediaSinkConnector ** *and* **OcaMediaSourceConnector ** *datatypes in version 3 of Connection Management (CM3)* Agent class for objects (“connectors”) that allow connection of streams to the device. Streams may be single channels or multichannel groups. A connector is either a *source* or a *sink.* Sources are sometimes called “talkers”. Sinks are sometimes called “listeners”. Each connector links to zero or more **OcaStream data objects. Each OcaStream object represents a signal flow to or from a local connector to a remote connector. The remote connector is usually, but not necessarily, in a different node. Each connector collects zero or more signal channels. A signal channel is an instance of OcaNetworkSignalChannel. Each signal channel exposes one media channel of the stream to the interior of the device. A signal channel therefore is a Worker that contains exactly one OcaPort data object. Each OcaStreamConnector object belongs to a particular instance of OcaStreamNetwork or a subclass of OcaStreamNetwork . Each OcaStreamConnector is linked to its network through the Owner property.
When a controller creates an OcaStreamConnector object dynamically, the controller must store the Object Number of the corresponding OcaStreamNetwork object in the Owner property.
Upon receiving the Owner property change, the OcaStreamConnector object must register itself with the given stream network object via some internal means.
This class may be subclassed to support various network types. ** **
Properties:
-
static const OcaClassID ClassID = "1.2.11"
ID of this class
This property has id
1.1
.
-
static const OcaClassVersionNumber ClassVersion = 3
Version number of this class
This property has id
1.2
.
-
OcaStreamConnectorID IDAdvertised
Character name or binary identifier of this connector. This ID is advertised on the network to be found by other devices’ discovery processes.
This property has id
3.2
.
-
OcaONo OwnerNetwork
Object number of stream network object (OcaStreamNetwork or one of its subclasses) to which this connector belongs. In reconfigurable devices, a controller that creates an OcaStreamConnector object must store the appropriate stream network object number into this property. It is assumed that, upon receiving a value into its Owner property, the terminus object will by internal means register itself with the identified stream network.
This property has id
3.1
.
-
OcaMap<OcaStreamConnectorPinIndex, OcaONo> Pins
The map of connector pin indexes to OcaNetworkSignalChannel[Source|Sink] objects collected by this connector. The pin indexes are fixed indexes 1 to n, where n is the number of channels the connector accommodates (determined when the connector is created). If a certain pin in the connector is currently not attached the OcaONo of that index is 0.
This property has id
3.5
.
-
OcaNetworkMediaSourceOrSink SourceOrSink
Specifies whether this connector is for output (source) or input (sink) signal channels.
This property has id
3.3
.
-
OcaStreamConnectorStatus Status
Status of this terminus.
This property has id
3.6
.
-
OcaMap<OcaStreamIndex, OcaStream> Streams
The list of OcaStream data objects contained in (i.e. connected to) this connector.
This property has id
