Detailed Description

An abstract base class that should never be used directly, only inherited.

This class used to be called Telescope, but it has been renamed to TelescopeClient in order to resolve a compiler/linker conflict with the identically named Telescope class in Stellarium's main code.

Definition at line 53 of file TelescopeClient.hpp.

Member Function Documentation

virtual double TelescopeClient::getAngularSize ( const StelCore *  core ) const

inlinevirtual

Return the angular radius of a circle containing the object as seen from the observer with the circle center assumed to be at getJ2000EquatorialPos().

Returns

radius in degree. This value is the apparent angular size of the object, and is independent of the current FOV.

Implements StelObject.

Definition at line 77 of file TelescopeClient.hpp.

QString TelescopeClient::getEnglishName ( void  ) const

inlinevirtual

Return object's name in english.

Implements StelObject.

Definition at line 61 of file TelescopeClient.hpp.

Vec3f TelescopeClient::getInfoColor ( void  ) const

inlinevirtual

Get a color used to display info about the object.

Reimplemented from StelObject.

Definition at line 63 of file TelescopeClient.hpp.

QString TelescopeClient::getInfoString ( const StelCore *  core, const InfoStringGroup &  flags  ) const

virtual

TelescopeClient supports the following InfoStringGroup flags:

• Name
• RaDecJ2000
• RaDec
• PlainText

  Parameters

  core	the StelCore object
  flags	a set of InfoStringGroup items to include in the return value.

  Returns

  a QString containing an HMTL encoded description of the Telescope.

Implements StelObject.

QString TelescopeClient::getNameI18n ( void  ) const

inlinevirtual

Return translated object's name.

Implements StelObject.

Definition at line 62 of file TelescopeClient.hpp.

QString TelescopeClient::getType ( void  ) const

inlinevirtual

Return object's type. It should be the name of the class.

Implements StelObject.

Definition at line 76 of file TelescopeClient.hpp.
