Vehicle feature can be zoned or be just generic depending of the vehicle. For example some vehicles can contain only one climate fan and some other may have one fan for the front seats and one for the back seat. To fill both requirements, a backend developer can specify each feature attribute to be generic or zone specific. If the backend doesn't specify a zone for an attribute, then the attribute is generic. There can be multiple zone attributes, but only a single generic one. The zone value for a generic attribute is an empty string, and it can be omitted from the signals. The code snippets below describes how to implement zone specific fanSpeedlevel and generic steeringWheelHeater support in the backend. \section2 Providing Available Zones Before making any further calls to the backend, VehicleFunctions will query the list of available zones. Zones are string keys and can be anything defined by the backend developer. In this case we have two zones: "Front" and "Rear". The backend must return all available zones via \l {QIviZonedFeatureInterface::}{availableZones}: \code QStringList backend::availableZones() const { QStringList zones; zones << "Front"; zones << "Rear"; return zones; } \endcode \section2 Initializing Attributes VehicleFunctions calls the backend to initialize all attributes. Backend implementation has to emit all supported attribute signals, passing the zone as a parameter. Zone is not needed if attribute is generic. Initialization signals are emitted in the \l {QIviZonedFeatureInterface::}{initialize}: \code void backend::initialize() { emit fanSpeedLevelChanged(2, "Front"); emit fanSpeedLevelChanged(2, "Rear"); emit steeringWheelHeaterChanged(0); // Generic, no zone specified emit initializationDone(); } \endcode \section2 Implementing Feature-specific Attributes Fan speed is zoned, validating requested zones is the responsibility of the backend. If zone is valid, the vehicle's actual fan speed level can be adjusted. The backend has to emit a signal for the changed zone. \code void backend::setFanSpeedLevel(int value, const QString &zone) { if (!m_fanSpeedZones.contains(zone)) { emit errorChanged(QIviAbstractFeature::InvalidZone); } else { // Set specified zone fan to value ... emit fanSpeedLevelChanged(value, zone); } } int backend::fanSpeedLevel(const QString &zone) { if (!m_fanSpeedZones.contains(zone)) { emit errorChanged(QIviAbstractFeature::InvalidZone); return -1; } else { int value = ... // Get vehicle's zone fan Speed return value; } } \endcode Steering wheel heater is not zone specific, so zone attribute should be empty. If zone is empty, the vehicle's actual steering wheel heater can be controlled. The backend has to emit a signal for the changed value. Because the attribute is generic, zone is omitted from the signal. \code void backend::setSteeringWheelHeater(int value, const QString &zone) { if (!zone.isEmpty()) { // zone must be empty for a generic attribute emit errorChanged(QIviAbstractFeature::InvalidZone); return; } else { // Set vehicle's steering wheel heater value ... emit steeringWheelHeaterChanged(value); } } int backend::steeringWheelHeater(const QString &zone) { if (!zone.isEmpty()) { // zone must be empty for a generic attribute emit errorChanged(QIviAbstractFeature::InvalidZone); return -1; } else { int value = ... // Get vehicle's steering wheel heater value return value; } } \endcode To implement a backend plugin you need also to implement QIviServiceInterface from the QtIviCore module. See the full example backend implementation from \c {src/plugins/ivivehiclefunctions/climate_simulator}. \sa QIviAbstractZonedFeature, QIviServiceInterface */ /*! \fn QIviZonedFeatureInterface::QIviZonedFeatureInterface(QObject *parent = nullptr) Constructs a backend base interface.
