Detailed Description

This class starts a simple coach, which actions are defined in the method mainLoop. It uses an ActHandler to send actions to the server and can receive information from the WorldModel. The declaration of the different methods are defined in BasicCoachTest.C and BasicCoach.C.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BasicCoach::BasicCoach (  ActHandler *    act, WorldModel *    wm, ServerSettings *    ss, char *    strTeamName, double    dVersion, bool    isTrainer )

This is the constructor for the BasicCoach class and contains the arguments that are used to initialize a coach. Parameters: act  ActHandler to which the actions can be sent wm  WorldModel which information is used to determine action ss  ServerSettings that contain parameters used by the server strTeamName  team name of this player dVersion  version this basiccoach corresponds to isTrainer  indicates whether the coach is a trainer (offline coach) or an online coach (used during the match).

Member Function Documentation

bool BasicCoach::executeStringCommand (  char *    str )

This method executes the command that is entered by the user. For the possible command look at the method showStringCommands. Parameters: str  string that is entered by the user Returns: true when command could be executed, false otherwise Definition at line 225 of file BasicCoach.cpp. References ACT, bContLoop, Parse::parseFirstDouble(), Parse::parseFirstInt(), and ActHandler::sendMessage(). Referenced by handleStdin().

void BasicCoach::handleStdin (    )

This method listens for input from the keyboard and when it receives this input it converts this input to the associated action. See showStringCommands for the possible options. This method is used together with the SenseHandler class that sends an alarm to indicate that a new command can be sent. This conflicts with the method in this method that listens for the user input (fgets) on Linux systems (on Solaris this isn't a problem). The only known method is to use the flag SA_RESTART with this alarm function, but that does not seem to work under Linux. If each time the alarm is sent, this gets function unblocks, it will cause major performance problems. This function should not be called when a whole match is played! Definition at line 193 of file BasicCoach.cpp. References executeStringCommand(), and MAX_MSG. Referenced by stdin_callback().

void BasicCoach::mainLoopNormal (    )  [virtual]

This method is the main loop of the coach. All sequence of actions are located in this method. Definition at line 93 of file BasicCoach.cpp. References ACT, bContLoop, WorldModel::getInfoHeteroPlayer(), WorldModel::getPlayMode(), ServerSettings::getSynchMode(), Time::getTime(), WorldModel::getTimeLastSeeGlobalMessage(), WorldModel::isConfidenceGood(), Logger::isInLogLevel(), Logger::log(), WorldModel::logObjectInformation(), m_player_types, MAX_HETERO_PLAYERS, OBJECT_ILLEGAL, OBJECT_TEAMMATE_11, PM_TIME_OVER, ActHandler::sendMessageDirect(), SS, substitutePlayer(), WorldModel::waitForNewInformation(), and WM. Referenced by main().

void BasicCoach::showStringCommands (  ostream &    out )

This method prints the possible commands that can be entered by the user. The whole name can be entered to perform the corresponding command, but normally only the first character is sufficient. This is indicated by putting brackets around the part of the command that is not needed. Parameters: out  output stream to which the possible commands are printed Definition at line 214 of file BasicCoach.cpp.

void BasicCoach::substitutePlayer (  int    iPlayer, int    iPlayerType )

This method substitutes one player to the given player type and sends this command (using the ActHandler) to the soccer server. Definition at line 160 of file BasicCoach.cpp. References ACT, CMD_CHANGEPLAYER, SoccerCommand::makeCommand(), and ActHandler::sendCommandDirect(). Referenced by mainLoopNormal().
