Module playerrobot

High-level interface to the Player client libraries.

The Player client libraries allow Python code to communicate with hardware devices such as robots, cameras, and range sensors.

This is a temporary home for this file until it finds a permanent home (maybe in the PlayerStage project or in PLASTK?)

Function Details

[hide private]

player_fn(error_op=<built-in function ne>, error_val=0)

source code

Player function decorator. Adds error checking.

Takes an operator and a value, and compares the result of the function call with the value using the operator. If the result is true, a PlayerException is raised. The default error condition is error_op = ne, error_value = 0, which raises an exception if fn(*args) != 0.

synchronized(lock)

source code

Simple synchronization decorator.

Takes an existing lock and synchronizes a function or method on that lock. Code taken from the Python Wiki PythonDecoratorLibrary:

http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonDecoratorLibrary

synched_method(f)

source code

Synchronized method decorator.

Like synchronized() decorator, except synched_method assumes that the first argument of the function is an instance containing a Lock object, and this lock is used for synchronization.
