Detailed Description

A typical XWCApp is the interface to a single piece of hardware, such as a camera or a filter wheel. Through various optional CRTP base classes, many different standard functionalities can be included. The following figure illustrates the facilities provided by a typical app.

Block diagram of a typical XWCApp. Note that ImageStreamIO (ISIO) is not included by default, but there are several ways to interface with 'image streams' provided in XWCTk. Many different hardware device interfaces are similarly provided.

The following figure illustrates the logic of the XWCApp finite state machine (FSM).

Enumeration Type Documentation

anonymous enum

anonymous enum : stateCodeT

The numeric codes descrbing an application's state.

Enumerator
FAILURE	The application has failed, should be used when m_shutdown is set for an error.
ERROR	The application has encountered an error, from which it is recovering (with or without intervention)
UNINITIALIZED	The application is unitialized, the default.
INITIALIZED	The application has been initialized, set just before calling appStartup().
NODEVICE	No device exists for the application to control.
POWEROFF	The device power is off.
POWERON	The device power is on.
NOTCONNECTED	The application is not connected to the device or service.
CONNECTED	The application has connected to the device or service.
LOGGEDIN	The application has logged into the device or service.
CONFIGURING	The application is configuring the device.
NOTHOMED	The device has not been homed.
HOMING	The device is homing.
OPERATING	The device is operating, other than homing.
READY	The device is ready for operation, but is not operating.
SHUTDOWN	The application has shutdown, set just after calling appShutdown().
