Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PoDoFo::PdfDataType::PdfDataType (  )  [protected]

Create a new PdfDataType. Can only be called by subclasses


Member Function Documentation

void PoDoFo::PdfDataType::AssertMutable (  )  const [inline, protected]

Will throw an exception if called on an immutable object, so this should be called before actually changing a value!

bool PoDoFo::PdfDataType::GetImmutable (  )  const [inline]

Retrieve if an object is immutable.

This is used by PdfImmediateWriter and PdfStreamedDocument so that no keys can be added to an object after setting stream data on it.

Returns:
true if the object is immutable

bool PoDoFo::PdfDataType::IsDirty (  )  const [virtual]

The dirty flag is set if this variant has been modified after construction.

Usually the dirty flag is also set if you call any non-const member function as we cannot determine if you actually changed something or not.

Returns:
true if the value is dirty and has been modified since construction

void PoDoFo::PdfDataType::SetDirty ( bool  bDirty  )  [virtual]

Sets the dirty flag of this PdfVariant

Parameters:
bDirty true if this PdfVariant has been modified from the outside
See also:
IsDirty

void PoDoFo::PdfDataType::SetImmutable ( bool  bImmutable  )  [inline]

Sets this object to immutable, so that no keys can be edited or changed.

Parameters:
bImmutable if true set the object to be immutable
This is used by PdfImmediateWriter and PdfStreamedDocument so that no keys can be added to an object after setting stream data on it.

virtual void PoDoFo::PdfDataType::Write ( PdfOutputDevice pDevice,
const PdfEncrypt pEncrypt = NULL 
) const [pure virtual]

Write the complete datatype to a file.

Parameters:
pDevice write the object to this device
pEncrypt an encryption object which is used to encrypt this object or NULL to not encrypt this object

Implemented in PoDoFo::PdfData, PoDoFo::PdfName, PoDoFo::PdfReference, and PoDoFo::PdfString.
