This tutorial describes how to define a class that can be used on the bus.

Consider the following class:

1
2
3
4
5

class C {
    int i;

    C ( int i ) : i ( i ) {};
};

This class must adhere to the following rules:

• The class must be derived from anybus::Object

• The class must have a default (no parameters) constructor (there is ways to get around this, but let's keep it simple).

• The class must have a method called type that returns the class' corresponding anybus::Type object. Consider the following:

  cpp

  C ( int i = 0 ) : i ( i ) {};
  

  };

This satisfies the first two rules:

• The class is now derived from anybus::Object,
• and the constructor can be called without parameters.
