State Managers
Definition
A state manager is a plugable component used by OITF to handle events. Knowledge about an object’s life cycle and how it reacts to an event (raised by an application) resides in the state manager.
Use
OITF provides the state manager
IOITF_SM
, which can be readily used. Nevertheless, you are free to use any state manager that complies with OITF’s state manager adapter (implements interface
IF_COM_IOITF_SMA
). Before a state manager can be used, it must be registered with OITF. The OITF state manager
IOITF_SM
is already registered.
