/** @file invocation-trail.hpp
|
|
** A command in preparation of being issued from the UI.
|
|
** The actual persistent operations on the session model are defined
|
|
** as DSL scripts acting on the session interface, and configured as a
|
|
** _command prototype_. Typically these need to be enriched with at least
|
|
** the actual subject to invoke this command on; many commands require
|
|
** additional parameters, e.g. some time or colour value. These actual
|
|
** invocation parameters need to be picked up from UI elements, and the
|
|
** process of preparing and outfitting a generic command with these
|
|
** actual values is tracked by an [InvocationTrail] handle. When
|
|
** ready, finally this handle can be issued on any [BusTerm].
|
|
**
|
|
** @todo as of 11/2015 this is complete WIP-WIP-WIP
|
|
**
|
|
** @see ////TODO_test usage example
|
|
