Detailed Description

filter descriptor

Represents a conjunction of constraints.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Filter::Filter (  Interface *    i ) 
 

constructs a filter descriptor associating the filter with the given interface

Member Data Documentation

Interface* Filter::i
 

descriptor of the interface associated with this filter

The current implementation is not capable of recognizing two identical filters. Therefore, every filter will generate a filter descriptor like this, and therefore a filter descriptor is associated with a single interface. This is why this is simply a pointer to an interface descriptor.

At some point, we migh want to be able to figure out that F1==F2, and therefore to allow each filter to refer to more than one interfaces. In that case, we will have to maintain a set of pointers to interface descriptors.

unsigned char Filter::size
 

number of constraints composing this filter

Notice that the implicit restriction of this declaration is that we do not allow more than 255 constraints per filter.
