Profile management

Profile subsystem is based on auto-generated class(es) according to the profile schema used during sdk generation.

Assume a profile schema has the following form:

{
    "name": "Profile",
    "namespace": "org.kaaproject.kaa.client.example",
    "type": "record",
    "fields": [
        {
            "name": "data",
            "type": "string"
        }
    ]
}

After calling avrogen.sh script Avro C++ compiler will be generated appropriate code and put it into ProfileGen.hpp header. So auto-generated notification class will be like:

struct Profile {
    std::string data;
};

Below is an example of a profile container for C++:

#include "kaa/Kaa.hpp"
#include "kaa/gen/ProfileGen.hpp" // auto-generated header
#include "kaa/profile/AbstractProfileContainer.hpp"
 
using namespace kaa;
// Profile container based on AbstractProfileContainer class that is provided by the sdk
class BasicProfileContainer : public AbstractProfileContainer<Profile> {
public:
    BasicProfileContainer(const Profile &profile) : profile_(profile) { }
    virtual Profile getProfile() {
        return profile_;
    }
    virtual void changeProfile(const Profile &profile) {
        profile_ = profile;
        // Update method should be called to notify about changes in the profile.
        updateProfile();
    }
private:
    Profile profile_;
};
// Kaa client initialization based on BasicProfileContainer
void init(){
    //Create client for Kaa SDK
    Kaa::init();
    IKaaClient &client = Kaa::getKaaClient();
    //Sample profile
    Profile profile;
    profile.data = "some useful data";
    //Create instance of profile container
    ProfileContainerPtr container(new BasicProfileContainer(profile));
    //Set simple profile container to profile manager.
    client.getProfileManager().setProfileContainer(container);
    //Starts Kaa
    Kaa::start();
}
