TransformationalStateElementAdapterDefinition Class

The base type for adapters that do some kind of geometric transformation to an element in the state. For example, when the ReferenceFrame changes.

Syntax
public abstract class TransformationalStateElementAdapterDefinition : StateElementAdapterDefinition

The TransformationalStateElementAdapterDefinition type exposes the following members.

Constructors
  NameDescription
Protected methodTransformationalStateElementAdapterDefinition
Initializes a new instance. The ElementIdentification must be set before GetAdapter(StateElementAdapterDefinition, EvaluatorGroup) is called, as well as any additional properties derived types require.
Protected methodTransformationalStateElementAdapterDefinition(TransformationalStateElementAdapterDefinition, CopyContext)
Initializes a new instance as a copy of an existing instance.

Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyCurrentDefinedIn
Gets or sets the current defined in object. This is just for ease of use when developing your own adapters.
Public propertyElementIdentification
Gets or sets the identification of the element in the state that will be adapted.
(Inherited from StateElementAdapterDefinition.)
Public propertyIsFrozen
Gets a value indicating whether this object is frozen. A frozen object cannot be modified and an ObjectFrozenException will be thrown if an attempt is made to do so.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Protected propertyPreviousDefinedIn
Gets or sets the previous defined in object. This is just for ease of use when developing your own adapters. It is best to configure whatever is calling GetAdapter(StateElementAdapterDefinition, EvaluatorGroup) to pass in an old adapter. If there is no old defined in to work with, then use the CurrentDefinedIn for both the current and previous. If this is set, then it should take priority over the adapter passed into GetAdapter(StateElementAdapterDefinition, EvaluatorGroup)

Methods
  NameDescription
Protected methodCheckForSameDefinition(DefinitionalObject)
Checks to determine if another instance has the same definition as this instance and returns if it does. Derived classes MUST override this method and check all new fields introduced by the derived class for definitional equivalence. It is NOT necessary to check base class fields because the base class will already have done that. When overriding this method, you should NOT call the base implementation because it will return for all derived-class instances. Derived classes should check the type of other to preserve the symmetric nature of IsSameDefinition(Object).
(Inherited from StateElementAdapterDefinition.)
Protected methodCheckForSameDefinition(StateElementAdapterDefinition)
Checks to determine if another instance has the same definition as this instance and returns if it does. Derived classes MUST override this method and check all new fields introduced by the derived class for definitional equivalence. It is NOT necessary to check base class fields because the base class will already have done that. When overriding this method, you should NOT call the base implementation because it will return for all derived-class instances. Derived classes should check the type of other to preserve the symmetric nature of IsSameDefinition(Object).
(Overrides StateElementAdapterDefinitionCheckForSameDefinition(StateElementAdapterDefinition).)
Protected methodCheckForSameDefinition(TransformationalStateElementAdapterDefinition)
Checks to determine if another instance has the same definition as this instance and returns if it does. Derived classes MUST override this method and check all new fields introduced by the derived class for definitional equivalence. It is NOT necessary to check base class fields because the base class will already have done that. When overriding this method, you should NOT call the base implementation because it will return for all derived-class instances. Derived classes should check the type of other to preserve the symmetric nature of IsSameDefinition(Object).
Public methodClone
Clones this object using the specified context.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Protected methodComputeCurrentDefinitionHashCode
Computes a hash code based on the current properties of this object. Derived classes MUST override this method and compute a hash code that combines: a unique hash code seed, the base implementation result, and the hash codes of all new fields introduced by the derived class which are used in the CheckForSameDefinition(DefinitionalObject) method.
(Overrides StateElementAdapterDefinitionComputeCurrentDefinitionHashCode.)
Public methodEnumerateDependencies
Enumerates the dependencies of this object by calling EnumerateT(T) for each object that this object directly depends upon. Derived classes which contain additional dependencies MUST override this method, call the base implementation, and enumerate dependencies introduced by the derived class.
(Overrides StateElementAdapterDefinitionEnumerateDependencies(DependencyEnumerator).)
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodFreeze
Freezes this object. Further attempts to modify it will result in an ObjectFrozenException.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Protected methodFreezeAggregatedObjects
Called by Freeze to also freeze any objects that are considered to be a part of this object. Derived classes which contain additional aggregated objects MUST override this method, call the base implementation, and freeze aggregated objects introduced by the derived class. The objects that need to be frozen in this method are frequently created in this object's constructor and are not settable via properties.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Public methodGetAdapter
Creates the adapter defined by this instance. Since adapters are meant to transition from one context to another, the previous adapter is passed in to finish the configuration. If it is not needed for your particular adapter it can be ignored.
(Inherited from StateElementAdapterDefinition.)
Public methodGetDefinitionHashCode
Gets a hash code representing the definition of this object.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodIsSameDefinition
Determines if this object has the same definition as another object.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Protected methodMemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodThrowIfFrozen
Throws ObjectFrozenException if this object IsFrozen. This method should be called from any method or property that modifies this object.
(Inherited from DefinitionalObject.)
Public methodToString
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

When creating your own adapters, you must understand the difference between an element definition and a defined in object. The element definition is an object that, among other things, can provide the defined in object which is generally a ReferenceFrame or Axes. The defined in object is the object that the motion would be represented in. For example, when using the NumericalPropagator, a PropagationPointElement would be the element definition, and its IntegrationFrame would be the defined in object.

Some objects (element definitions that are Scalars) do not have a defined in which is acceptable.
