## Detailed Description

A filter connection description structure.

This structure holds informations about the connection capabilities. It holds common structure members of oyFilterPlug_s and oyFilterSocket_s.

To signal a value is not initialised or does not apply, set the according integer value to -1.

Todo:
  generalise the connector properties

## Member Function Documentation

OYAPI oyConnector_s *OYEXPORT oyConnector_Copy | ( | oyConnector_s * | connector,
|  | oyObject_s | object
| ) |  |

copy or reference a Connector object

Function oyConnector_Copy

The function is for copying and for referencing. The reference is the most often used way, which saves resourcs and time.

Parameters

  [in] | connector | Connector struct object
  | object | NULL - means reference, the optional object triggers a real copy

References oyOBJECT_CONNECTOR_S.

Referenced by oyFilterNode_s::oyFilterNode_ShowConnector(), oyFilterPlug_s::oyFilterPlug_GetPattern(), and oyFilterPlug_s::oyFilterSocket_GetPattern().

oyCMMFilterSocket_MatchPlug_f oyConnector_GetMatch | ( | oyConnector_s * | obj | ) |

Set this connectors type check function.

Function oyConnector_GetMatch

This is use as a check, if connections are possible. This allowes for a more fine grained control than the type registration.

Parameters

  [in] | obj | Connector object

Returns
  the check function
