Represents a shared variant value.
A Value object contains a reference to a var object, and can get and set its value. Listeners can be attached to be told when the value is changed.
The Value class is a wrapper around a shared, reference-counted underlying data object - this means that multiple Value objects can all refer to the same piece of data, allowing all of them to be notified when any of them changes it.
When you create a Value with its default constructor, it acts as a wrapper around a simple var object, but by creating a Value that refers to a custom subclass of ValueSource, you can map the Value onto any kind of underlying data.
Important note! The Value class is not thread-safe! If you're accessing one from multiple threads, then you'll need to use your own synchronisation around any code that accesses it.
| Value::Value | ( | ) |
Creates an empty Value, containing a void var.
| Value::Value | ( | const Value & | other | ) |
|
explicit |
Creates a Value that is set to the specified value.
|
noexcept |
Move constructor.
| Value::~Value | ( | ) |
Destructor.
|
explicit |
Creates a Value object that uses this valueSource object as its underlying data.
| var Value::getValue | ( | ) | const |
Returns the current value.
Referenced by StandalonePluginHolder::valueChanged().
| Value::operator var | ( | ) | const |
Returns the current value.
| String Value::toString | ( | ) | const |
Returns the value as a string.
This is a shortcut for "myValue.getValue().toString()".
| void Value::setValue | ( | const var & | newValue | ) |
Sets the current value.
You can also use operator= to set the value.
If there are any listeners registered, they will be notified of the change asynchronously.
Referenced by StandalonePluginHolder::reloadAudioDeviceState().
Sets the current value.
This is the same as calling setValue().
If there are any listeners registered, they will be notified of the change asynchronously.
| void Value::referTo | ( | const Value & | valueToReferTo | ) |
Makes this object refer to the same underlying ValueSource as another one.
Once this object has been connected to another one, changing either one will update the other.
Existing listeners will still be registered after you call this method, and they'll continue to receive messages when the new value changes.
| bool Value::refersToSameSourceAs | ( | const Value & | other | ) | const |
Returns true if this value and the other one are references to the same value.
| bool Value::operator== | ( | const Value & | other | ) | const |
Compares two values.
This is a compare-by-value comparison, so is effectively the same as saying (this->getValue() == other.getValue()).
| bool Value::operator!= | ( | const Value & | other | ) | const |
Compares two values.
This is a compare-by-value comparison, so is effectively the same as saying (this->getValue() != other.getValue()).
| void Value::addListener | ( | Listener * | listener | ) |
Adds a listener to receive callbacks when the value changes.
The listener is added to this specific Value object, and not to the shared object that it refers to. When this object is deleted, all the listeners will be lost, even if other references to the same Value still exist. So when you're adding a listener, make sure that you add it to a Value instance that will last for as long as you need the listener. In general, you'd never want to add a listener to a local stack-based Value, but more likely to one that's a member variable.

| void Value::removeListener | ( | Listener * | listener | ) |
Removes a listener that was previously added with addListener().
|
noexcept |
Returns the ValueSource that this value is referring to.
