Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class bio::molecular::EnvironmentDependent< T >

An EnvironmentDependent object is one that changes how it behaves based on where it exists. This class assumes there is only ever 1 greater environment directly above the inheriting class. For example, a Protein is dependent on the Cell in which it resides and a Cell is dependent on the Tissue in which it resides. However, no where is a Protein dependent on multiple Cells directly nor is any Cell dependent on more than 1 Tissue at a time. Instead, these EnvironmentDependent classes rely on their greater context to move between themselves and further contexts, whatever resources they need or produce. In other words, the immediate m_environment is a pivot point into the larger system & the larger system is often tiered, having an even larger system "above" it.

Template Parameters

T	what this is dependent on (will store a T as m_environment).

Member Function Documentation

GetEnvironment() [1/2]

template<typename T >

virtual T * bio::molecular::EnvironmentDependent< T >::GetEnvironment ( )

inlinevirtual

Returns

The m_environment.

Definition at line 58 of file EnvironmentDependent.h.

    {
        return m_environment;
    }

GetEnvironment() [2/2]

template<typename T >

virtual const T * bio::molecular::EnvironmentDependent< T >::GetEnvironment ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns

The m_environment as const.
