Public Functions

template<typename ArgT, typename ...ArgsT, typename = std::enable_if_t<!std::is_base_of_v<holoscan::Operator, std::decay_t<ArgT>> && (std::is_same_v<holoscan::Arg, std::decay_t<ArgT>> || std::is_same_v<holoscan::ArgList, std::decay_t<ArgT>> || std::is_base_of_v<holoscan::Condition, typename holoscan::type_info<ArgT>::derived_type> || std::is_base_of_v<holoscan::Resource, typename holoscan::type_info<ArgT>::derived_type>)>>
inline explicit GXFOperator(ArgT &&arg, ArgsT&&... args)

inline GXFOperator()

virtual void initialize() override

Initialize the GXF operator.

This function is called when the fragment is initialized by Executor::initialize_fragment().

This sets the operator type to holoscan::Operator::OperatorType::kGXF.

virtual const char *gxf_typename() const = 0

Get the type name of the GXF component.

The returned string is the type name of the GXF component and is used to create the GXF component.

Example: “nvidia::holoscan::AJASource”

Returns

The type name of the GXF component.

inline gxf_context_t gxf_context() const

Get the GXF context object.

Returns

The GXF context object.

inline void gxf_eid(gxf_uid_t gxf_eid)

Set GXF entity ID.

Parameters

gxf_eid – The GXF entity ID.

inline gxf_uid_t gxf_eid() const

Get the GXF entity ID.

Returns

The GXF entity ID.

inline void gxf_cid(gxf_uid_t gxf_cid)

Set the GXF component ID.

Parameters

gxf_cid – The GXF component ID.

inline gxf_uid_t gxf_cid() const

Get the GXF component ID.

Returns

The GXF component ID.

Public Static Functions

template<typename typeT>
static inline void register_converter()

Register the argument setter and the GXF parameter adaptor for the given type.

If the GXF operator has an argument with a custom type, both the argument setter and GXF parameter adaptor must be registered using this method.

The argument setter is used to set the value of the argument from the YAML configuration, and the GXF parameter adaptor is used to set the value of the GXF parameter from the argument value in YAML::Node object.

This method can be called in the initialization phase of the operator (e.g., initialize()). The example below shows how to register the argument setter for the custom type (Vec3):

Copy

Copied!

            

            
void MyGXFOp::initialize() {
  register_converter<Vec3>();

  holoscan::ops::GXFOperator::initialize();
}
        

It is assumed that YAML::convert<T>::encode and YAML::convert<T>::decode are implemented for the given type. You need to specialize the YAML::convert<> template class.

For example, suppose that you had a Vec3 class with the following members:

Copy

Copied!

            

            
struct Vec3 {
  // make sure you have overloaded operator==() for the comparison
  double x, y, z;
};
        

You can define the YAML::convert<Vec3> as follows in a ‘.cpp’ file:

Copy

Copied!

            

            
namespace YAML {
template<>
struct convert<Vec3> {
  static Node encode(const Vec3& rhs) {
    Node node;
    node.push_back(rhs.x);
    node.push_back(rhs.y);
    node.push_back(rhs.z);
    return node;
  }

  static bool decode(const Node& node, Vec3& rhs) {
    if(!node.IsSequence() || node.size() != 3) {
      return false;
    }

    rhs.x = node[0].as<double>();
    rhs.y = node[1].as<double>();
    rhs.z = node[2].as<double>();
    return true;
  }
};
}
        

Please refer to the yaml-cpp documentation for more details.
