Abstract base class for objects which generate elevation profiles.
The generation is typically done in a background thread, so it is necessary to keep all structures required for generating the profile away from the original profile source because it may change at any time.
Because the data needs to be copied (to avoid the need for locking), it is highly desirable to use copy-on-write where possible. This way, the overhead of copying (both memory and CPU) will be kept low. Qt containers and various Qt classes use implicit sharing.
The scenario will be:

Access to feedback object of the generator (may be nullptr
)
Implemented in QgsMeshLayerProfileGenerator, QgsPointCloudLayerProfileGenerator, QgsRasterLayerProfileGenerator, and QgsVectorLayerProfileGenerator.

Returns flags which reflect how the profile generator operates.
Reimplemented in QgsPointCloudLayerProfileGenerator, and QgsRasterLayerProfileGenerator.
Definition at line 146 of file qgsabstractprofilegenerator.cpp.

pure virtual |
Generate the profile (based on data stored in the class).
Returns true
if the profile was generated successfully (i.e. the generation was not canceled early).
Implemented in QgsMeshLayerProfileGenerator, QgsPointCloudLayerProfileGenerator, QgsRasterLayerProfileGenerator, and QgsVectorLayerProfileGenerator.
|
pure virtual |
Returns a unique identifier representing the source of the profile.
For generators associated with a map layer the source ID will match the layer's QgsMapLayer::id(). Other (non-map-layer) sources will have a different unique ID with its own custom interpretation.gen
Implemented in QgsMeshLayerProfileGenerator, QgsPointCloudLayerProfileGenerator, QgsRasterLayerProfileGenerator, and QgsVectorLayerProfileGenerator.

Takes results from the generator.
Ownership is transferred to the caller.
Implemented in QgsMeshLayerProfileGenerator, QgsPointCloudLayerProfileGenerator, QgsRasterLayerProfileGenerator, and QgsVectorLayerProfileGenerator.
