14 Base class for data loaders. This class only provides core functionality.
15 You'll almost certainly want to use one of the BasicLoader classes instead.
17 Under normal circumstances, a class capable of being loaded should have a
18 nested typed called Loader which resolves to a descendant of this class. If
19 another structure is used, the loader object must be constructed manually.
21 A loader class should execute one or more calls to the various add() functions
22 to register actions with expected keywords. Currently possible actions are
23 calling a function of the loader, storing values in member variables of an
24 object and ignoring the statement. If a unexpected keyword is encountered, an
25 exception is thrown and the loading is aborted.
27 A sub-object can be loaded with one of the load_sub functions.
29 When loading has finished successfully, the virtual function finish() is
30 called. Any post-processing of the data should be placed here and not in the
33 See also classes ObjectLoader and CollectionObjectLoader in objectloader.h.
