ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory Class Reference

Key/value store of objects.

Given a name, a TDirectory can store and retrieve an object. It will manage shared ownership through a shared_ptr.

Example: TDirectory dirMC; TDirectory dirHiggs;

dirMC.Add("higgs", histHiggsMC); dirHiggs.Add("mc", histHiggsMC);

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ ContentMap_t

using ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory::ContentMap_t = std::unordered_map<std::string, Internal::TDirectoryEntry>
private

The directory content is a hashed map of name => Internal::TDirectoryEntry.

Definition at line 71 of file TDirectory.hxx.

◆ ToContentType_t

template<class T >
using ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory::ToContentType_t = typename ToContentType<T>::type
private

Definition at line 86 of file TDirectory.hxx.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ EFindStatus

Status of the call to Find<T>(name).

Enumerator
kValidValue 

Value known for this key name and type.

kValidValueBase 

Value known for this key name and base type.

kKeyNameNotFound 

No key is known for this name.

kTypeMismatch 

The provided type does not match the value's type.

Definition at line 113 of file TDirectory.hxx.

Member Function Documentation

◆ Add()

template<class T >
void ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory::Add ( const std::string &  name,
const std::shared_ptr< T > &  ptr 
)
inline

Add an existing object (rather a shared_ptr to it) to the TDirectory.

The TDirectory will have shared ownership.

Definition at line 170 of file TDirectory.hxx.

◆ Create()

template<class T , class... ARGS>
std::shared_ptr<ToContentType_t<T> > ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory::Create ( const std::string &  name,
ARGS &&...  args 
)
inline

Create an object of type T (passing some arguments to its constructor).

The TDirectory will have shared ownership of the object.

Parameters
name- Key of the object.
args- arguments to be passed to the constructor of T

Definition at line 95 of file TDirectory.hxx.

◆ Find() [1/2]

Internal::TDirectoryEntry ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory::Find ( const std::string &  name) const
inline

Find the TDirectoryEntry associated to the name.

Returns empty TDirectoryEntry if nothing is found.

Definition at line 103 of file TDirectory.hxx.

◆ Find() [2/2]

template<class T >
std::pair<Internal::TDirectoryEntry, EFindStatus> ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory::Find ( const std::string &  name) const
inline

Find the TDirectoryEntry associated with the name.

Returns
empty TDirectoryEntry in first if nothing is found, or if the type does not match the expected type. second contains the reason.
Note
if second is kValidValue, then static_pointer_cast<T>(first.GetPointer()) is shared_ptr<T> to initially stored object
if second is kValidValueBase, then first.CastPointer<T>() is a valid cast to base class T of the stored object

Definition at line 129 of file TDirectory.hxx.

◆ Get()

template<class T >
std::shared_ptr<ToContentType_t<T> > ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory::Get ( const std::string &  name)
inline

Get the object for a key.

T can be the object's type or a base class. The TDirectory will return the same object for subsequent calls to Get().

Returns
a shared_ptr to the object or its base.
Exceptions
TDirectoryUnknownKeyif no object is stored under this name.
TDirectoryTypeMismatchif the object stored under this name is of a type that is not a derived type of T.

Definition at line 149 of file TDirectory.hxx.

◆ Heap()

ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory & TDirectory::Heap ( )
static

Dedicated, process-wide TDirectory.

Note
This is not thread-safe. You will need to syncronize yourself. In general it's a bad idea to use a global collection in a multi-threaded environment; ROOT itself does not make use of it. It is merely offered for historical, process-wide object registration by name. Instead, pass a pointer to the object where you need to access it - this is also much faster than a lookup by name.

ContentMap_t ROOT::Experimental::TDirectory::fContent
