Detailed Description

Factory for creating ArGPS objects based on command-line parameters.

Use createGPS() to create a GPS object.

Note:

The device connection object created by ArGPSConnector is destroyed when ArGPSConnector is destroyed. Therefore, you must not destroy an ArGPSConnector while its associated ArGPS is in use.

The following command line parameters are used:

gpsPort

Create a serial device connection to use, using the given port. Default is COM2 (/dev/ttyS1 on Linux)

gpsBaud

Set the serial device connection to the given baud rate. Default is 9600.

gpsType

Set the GPS device type (determine initialization commands sent). Valid values are "standard" or "novatelg2".

Todo:

Don't delete the device connection, let ArGPS do that? Set a flag to tell ArGPS to do it?

Examples:

gpsExample.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

bool ArGPSConnector::connectGPS (  ArGPS *  gps  )

Keep trying to connect to the GPS, possibly adjusting connection parameters. Definition at line 152 of file ArGPSConnector.cpp.

ArGPS * ArGPSConnector::createGPS (   )

Create a new GPS object (may be an ArGPS subclass based on device type) and a device connection for that GPS. See ArGPS for instructions on using it. Returns: NULL if there was an error creating a GPS object or an error creating and opening its device connection. Otherwise, return the new GPS object. Definition at line 107 of file ArGPSConnector.cpp.

void ArGPSConnector::logArgs (   )

Log argument option information Definition at line 95 of file ArGPSConnector.cpp.

bool ArGPSConnector::parseArgs (   )

Gets command line arguments Definition at line 68 of file ArGPSConnector.cpp.
