Member Function Documentation
◆ class_name()
|
pure virtual |
Returns the bare name of this class as a constant character pointer.
The name returned here is supposed to be just a class name and not provide any more information than that. It is especially important not to add any syntactic elements like '::' to the name, since a bare alphanumeric name is expected.
Implements basis::nameable.
◆ execute()
|
pure virtual |
performs the main activity of this particular application object.
the method must be overridden by the derived object. a return value for the program as a whole should be returned.
Implemented in application::application_shell, and write_build_config.
