+Sometimes a "flags" field might contains an enumeration part
+defined by a bit-mask.
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ enum {
+ flagsFeatureA = 1,
+ flagsFeatureB = 2,
+ flagsFeatureC = 4,
+
+ flagsCPUMask = 24,
+
+ flagsCPU1 = 8,
+ flagsCPU2 = 16
+ };
+
+To support reading and writing such fields, you need to use the maskedBitSet()
+method and provide the bit values, their names and the enumeration mask.
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ template <>
+ struct ScalarBitSetTraits<MyFlags> {
+ static void bitset(IO &io, MyFlags &value) {
+ io.bitSetCase(value, "featureA", flagsFeatureA);
+ io.bitSetCase(value, "featureB", flagsFeatureB);
+ io.bitSetCase(value, "featureC", flagsFeatureC);
+ io.maskedBitSetCase(value, "CPU1", flagsCPU1, flagsCPUMask);
+ io.maskedBitSetCase(value, "CPU2", flagsCPU2, flagsCPUMask);
+ }
+ };
+
+YAML I/O (when writing) will apply the enumeration mask to the flags field,
+and compare the result and values from the bitset. As in case of a regular
+bitset, each that matches will cause the corresponding string to be added
+to the flow sequence.
Custom Scalar
-------------
static StringRef input(StringRef scalar, T &value) {
// do custom parsing here. Return the empty string on success,
// or an error message on failure.
- return StringRef();
+ return StringRef();
}
+ // Determine if this scalar needs quotes.
+ static bool mustQuote(StringRef) { return true; }
};
it is parsed. This allows dynamic types of nodes. But the YAML I/O model uses
static typing, so there are limits to how you can use tags with the YAML I/O
model. Recently, we added support to YAML I/O for checking/setting the optional
-tag on a map. Using this functionality it is even possbile to support differnt
+tag on a map. Using this functionality it is even possbile to support different
mappings, as long as they are convertable.
To check a tag, inside your mapping() method you can use io.mapTag() to specify
