hello StartupCommand PureMVC cpp with CMake

Question

What would be the simplest example of CMakeLists.txt, main.cpp and PureMVC sources to display "Hello Startup" from execute() Startup SimpleCommand?

PureMVC sources are here

Ideally solution could be a link to github project.

Answer 1

You should compile corresponding dll and lib (Debug or Release [static|shared]), include PureMVC files. Maybe you can derive a facade from PureMVC::Patterns::Facade, override essential virtual functions. Because it's different between C++ and Java-like programming languages, overrided initializeController() won't be called in base class's constructor! Here is a derive example:

class ApplicationFacade
    : public virtual IFacade
    , public Facade
{
    friend class Facade;
public:
    static const string STARTUP;
    static const string EXIT;
protected:
    ApplicationFacade(void)
        : Facade(this, "ApplicationFacade")
    {
        initializeController();
    }

public:
    static ApplicationFacade& getInstance(void)
    {
        if (Facade::hasCore("ApplicationFacade"))
            return *(dynamic_cast<ApplicationFacade*>(&Facade::getInstance("ApplicationFacade")));
        return *(new ApplicationFacade());
    }

protected:
    virtual void initializeNotifier(string const& key)
    {
        Facade::initializeNotifier(key);
    }
    virtual void initializeFacade()
    {
        Facade::initializeFacade();
    }

    virtual void initializeController(void)
    {
        Facade::initializeController();
        StartupCommand* startupCommand = new StartupCommand();
        registerCommand(STARTUP, startupCommand);
        ExitCommand* exitCommand = new ExitCommand();
        registerCommand(EXIT, exitCommand);
    }

    ~ApplicationFacade()
    {
    }
};
const string ApplicationFacade::STARTUP = "startup";
const string ApplicationFacade::EXIT = "exit";

StartupCommand and ExitCommand are derived from PureMVC::Patterns::SimpleCommand Then in main.cpp you can start the program by:

ApplicationFacade& facade = ApplicationFacade::getInstance();
facade.sendNotification(ApplicationFacade::STARTUP);

And exit:

facade.sendNotification(ApplicationFacade::EXIT);
