Detailed Description¶

template <typename T >
struct KDBindings::equal_to;

An instance of the KDBindings::equal_to struct is used to decide whether two values of type T are equal in the context of data binding.

If a new value is assigned to a Property and the existing value is equal_to the existing value, the Property will not emit the Property::valueChanged or Property::valueAboutToChange signals and not change the stored value.

By default, all classes T that are equality comparable using std::equal_to delegate to std::equal_to for equality comparison. All other instances are assumed to never be equal. Therefore, to change the equality behavior of a Property, either:

Implement operator== for T (std::equal_to uses operator== for equality comparison)
Provide a template spezialization of KDBindings::equal_to and implement operator()()

Public Functions Documentation¶

function operator()¶

inline auto operator()(
    const T & x,
    const T & y
) const

Return: bool - Whether the values are equal.

This implementation of operator()() is only enabled if std::equal_to can be used to compare values of type T. In this case, std::equal_to is used to decide whether values of type T are equal.

function operator()¶

template <typename X ,
typename Y >
inline auto operator()(
    const X & ,
    const Y & 
) const

Return: bool - Whether the values are equal - always false for this default implementation

The fallback implementation of operator()() if the types are not equality comparable using std::equal_to (i.e. no operator== implementation exists for this type). In this case, two values of type T are assumed to never be equal.
