Input/vjGlove
class vjGlove

Known direct subclasses: vjSimDigitalGlove, vjSimGloveGesture, vjSimGloveGesture, vjPinchGlove, vjCyberGlove, vjDummyGlove

class vjGlove
Sub class of: virtual public vjInput

This is the abstract base glove class. Derived from vjInput.

It specifies the interface to all glove objects in the system. VR Juggler will deal only with gloves using this interface. Description:

Member Variable Summary
protected vjGloveData	mTheData[VJ_MAX_GLOVE_DEVS][3]
protected vjPosProxy*	mGlovePos[VJ_MAX_GLOVE_DEVS]         This is the positional proxy of the glove. It defines the location of the
public char*	sPort
public char*	instName
public int	port_id
public vjThread*	myThread         The thread being used by the driver
public int	active         Is the driver active
public int	current, progress, valid         Index holders
public vjMutex	lock         Mutex for swapping the pointers.
public int	baudRate         Baud rate of the device (if it is serial device)
public unsigned int	deviceAbilities         Combined mask of device abilities

Constructor Summary
