Detailed Description

It is a base class that provides a basic booting sequence that registers most of the carousel library assets in a IServiceLocator.

This class must be overridden to provide application specific boot loading sequence. See safeRun() method for the details.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CarouselBootloader::CarouselBootloader

(

)

Initializes a new instance of the CarouselBootloader class.

CarouselBootloader::~CarouselBootloader

(

)

Destructs the instance of the CarouselBootloader class and also sets up null pointer to the LoggerFacade.

Member Function Documentation

void CarouselBootloader::configureComponentManager ( )

protectedvirtual

Adds all components registered in provider to the component manager.

Reimplemented from BootloaderBase.

void CarouselBootloader::configureServiceLocator ( )

protectedvirtual

Configures service locator by adding the IComponentManager and IComponentProvider commonly used services. May be overridden in a derived class to add specific services required by the application.

Implements BootloaderBase.

void CarouselBootloader::initialiseComponentProvider ( )

protectedvirtual

Initializes the component provider.

Reimplemented from BootloaderBase.

void CarouselBootloader::safeRun ( )

protectedvirtual

Performs the carousel-specific booting sequence:

• first calls BootloaderBase::createLoggerEngine() - override this method to instantiate logger facade over your favorite logging system;
• then calls BootloaderBase::createServiceLocator();
• then calls BootloaderBase::createComponentManager();
• then calls BootloaderBase::createComponentProvider() - override this method to instantiate specific component provider;
• then calls BootloaderBase::createMainWindow();
• then calls BootloaderBase::configureComponentProvider() - override this method to register components statically or specify parameters for their dynamic discovering;
• then calls configureServiceLocator();
• then calls initialiseComponentProvider();
• and finally calls configureComponentManager().

Implements BootloaderBase.
