Enumeration Type Documentation

enum RTC::ActArrayActuatorStatus

Describes the status of an actuator.

Enumerator:

ACTUATOR_STATUS_IDLE
ACTUATOR_STATUS_MOVING
ACTUATOR_STATUS_BRAKED
ACTUATOR_STATUS_STALLED

enum RTC::ActArrayActuatorType

Describes the type of an actuator.

Enumerator:

ACTARRAY_ACTUATORTYPE_LINEAR
ACTARRAY_ACTUATORTYPE_ROTARY

enum RTC::ExecutionKind

ExecutionKind.

Description

The ExecutionKind enumeration defines the execution semantics (see Section 5.3) of the RTCs that participate in an execution context.

Enumerator:

PERIODIC	PERIODIC. Description The participant RTCs are executing according to periodic sampled data semantics (see Section 5.3.1).
EVENT_DRIVEN	EVENT_DRIVEN. Description The participant RTCs are executing according to stimulus response semantics (see Section 5.3.2).
OTHER	OTHER. Description The participant RTCs are executing according to some semantics not defined by this specification.

enum RTC::GPSFixType

Enumerator:

GPS_FIX_NONE
GPS_FIX_NORMAL
GPS_FIX_DGPS

enum RTC::GripperStatus

Describes the status of a gripper.

Enumerator:

GRIPPER_STATE_OPEN
GRIPPER_STATE_CLOSED
GRIPPER_STATE_MOVING
GRIPPER_STATE_UNKNOWN

enum RTC::LifeCycleState

LifeCycleState.

Description

LifeCycleState is an enumeration of the states in the lifecycle above.

Enumerator:

CREATED_STATE	CREATED. Description The RTC object has been instantiated but not yet fully initialized.
INACTIVE_STATE	INACTIVE. Description The RTC is Alive but is not being invoked in any execution context (see Section 5.2.2.5), regardless of whether the context is Running or not. Semantics An instance of this state exists for each execution context in which the RTC participates. If the RTC does not participate in any execution context, a single instance of this state exists.
ACTIVE_STATE	ACTIVE. Description The RTC is Alive and will be invoked in the execution context if the context is Running. Semantics An instance of this state exists for each execution context in which the RTC participates. If the RTC does not participate in any execution context, this state shall never be observed.
ERROR_STATE	ERROR. Description The RTC has encountered a problem in a given execution context and cannot continue functioning in that context without being reset.

enum RTC::LimbStatus

Enumerator:

LIMB_STATUS_IDLE
LIMB_STATUS_BRAKED
LIMB_STATUS_MOVING
LIMB_STATUS_OOR
LIMB_STATUS_COLLISION

enum RTC::PortInterfacePolarity

PortInterfacePolarity.

Description

The PortInterfacePolarity enumeration identifies exposed interface instances as provided or required.

Enumerator:

PROVIDED	PROVIDED. Description The target interface is provided as an output by the target port.
REQUIRED	REQUIRED. Description The target interface is required as an input by the target port.

enum RTC::ReturnCode_t

ReturnCode_t.

A number of operations in this specification will need to report potential error conditions to their clients. This task shall be accomplished by means of operation "return codes" of type ReturnCode_t

Operations in the PIM that do not return a value of type ReturnCode_t shall report errors in the following ways, depending on their return type:

• If an operation normally returns a positive numerical value (such as get_rate, see [OMG RTC 1.0 Section 5.2.2.6.4]), it shall indicate failure by returning a negative value.
• If an operation normally returns an object reference (such as RTObject::get_component_profile, see [OMG RTC 1.0 Section 5.4.2.2.1]), it shall indicate failure by returning a nil reference.

Parameters:

	RTC_OK	The operation completed successfully.
	RTC_ERROR	The operation failed with a generic, unspecified error.
	BAD_PARAMETER	The operation failed because an illegal argument was passed to it.
	UNSUPPORTED	The operation is unsupported by the implementation (e.g., it belongs to a compliance point that is not implemented).
	OUT_OF_RESOURCES	The target of the operation ran out of the resources needed to complete the operation.
	PRECONDITION_NOT_MET	A pre-condition for the operation was not met.

Enumerator:

RTC_OK
RTC_ERROR
BAD_PARAMETER
UNSUPPORTED
OUT_OF_RESOURCES
PRECONDITION_NOT_MET
