Detailed Description

Class CCWFGM WeatherStream.

This object contains weather data for a series of consecutive days, so is such called a weather stream. It has a start time and duration, and the user can inspect and modify various daily or hourly values. Each day of weather data is complete unto itself. The user may also specify alpha, beta, and gamma for Judi Beck's diurnal weather calculations. It also supports the standard COM IPersistStream, IPersistStreamInit, and IPersistStorage interfaces. Any weather stream is automatically saved with the station in order to simplify serialization operations in the client application.

A weather stream must be associated with a weather station to be selected into a scenario.

Member Function Documentation

CCWFGM_WeatherStream::ClearWeatherData ( )

Deletes all hourly and daily weather data in the file. Does not reset start time, starting codes, etc.

See Also: ICWFGM_WeatherStream::ClearWeatherData

This method may also append a preceding or following day to existing data.

Parameters

ERROR_SCENARIO_SIMULATION_RUNNING	Changes cannot be made if the simulation is running.

CCWFGM_WeatherStream::MakeHourlyObservations ( ULONGLONG time )

There are two basic formats supported by this weather stream object: a day's values can be specified as hourly conditions or daily observations. If daily observations are provided, then hourly conditions are subsequently calculated. If the day's values are already specified as hourly conditions, then there is no change. This method may also append a preceding or following day to existing data.

Parameters

CCWFGM_WeatherStream::MT_Lock	(	USHORT	exclusive,
		USHORT	obtain
	)

Changes the state of the object with respect to access rights. When the object is used by an active simulation, it must not be modified. When the object is somehow modified, it must be done so in an atomic action to prevent concerns with arising from multithreading. Note that these locks are primarily needed to ensure that data contributing during a simulation is not modified while the simulation is executing.

Locking request is forwarded to the attached ICWFGM_WeatherStation object.

In the event of an error, then locking is undone to reflect an error state.

Parameters

exclusive	TRUE if the requester wants a write lock, false for read/shared access
obtain	TRUE to obtain the lock, FALSE to release the lock. If this is FALSE, then the 'exclusive' parameter must match the initial call used to obtain the lock.

See Also: ICWFGM_WeatherStream::MT_Lock; ICWFGM_WeatherStation::MT_Lock

Return values

SUCCESS_STATE_OBJECT_UNLOCKED	Lock was released.
SUCCESS_STATE_OBJECT_LOCKED_WRITE	Exclusive/write lock obtained.
SUCCESS_STATE_OBJECT_LOCKED_SCENARIO	A scenario successfully required a lock for purposes of simulating.
SUCCESS_STATE_OBJECT_LOCKED_READ	Shared/read lock obtained.
S_OK	Successful

It is a VARIANT value to ensure that the client code can store a pointer value (if it chooses) for use in manual subclassing this object.
