IntendedSignalByTransmitter Methods

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).

Clones this object using the specified context.

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.

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.

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Freezes this object. Further attempts to modify it will result in an ObjectFrozenException.

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.

Gets a signal evaluator which when evaluated will return all of the intended signals from a collection of signals. If there are no matching signals, the evaluator will return an empty SignalCollection.

Gets a hash code representing the definition of this object.

Serves as the default hash function.

Get an evaluator which produces a single Signal as the intended signal from the given ISignalSource.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Get an evaluator which produces a collection of Signals from the given ISignalSource by determining the intended signal and removing it from the collection.

Determines if this object has the same definition as another object.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Throws ObjectFrozenException if this object IsFrozen. This method should be called from any method or property that modifies this object.

Returns a string that represents the current object.
