enum  ACCESS_LEVEL { FREE, LOCKED, HIDDEN }
 

Public Member Functions

 AccessPolicy ()
 
ACCESS_LEVEL getAccess (unsigned int index) const
 

Detailed Description

Access Policy will tell ModelObjects witch fields to expose

The Policy will restrict your access to ModelObject data. Workspace objects have fields. you can index into those fields and get the value, change the value, etc. ModelObjects may not want to allow you to change things, or even show them. The policy is used to build GUIs, it is not really something for general use in the backend data manipulation side of things. The idea is that each program might have its own XML file that tells the AccessPolicy how to display fields.
