Live Data: Create a 'FakeDataLiveListener'

[Russell Taylor]

This is a concrete implementation of ILiveListener (see #4802) that we can use for testing ahead of the implementation of the real listeners (and real streams for them to listen to). It will just create fake event data (or possibly read from a file and replay that).

It should give a 'realistic' data rate (we need to decide what that is).

[Russell Taylor]

Initial, very simple, 'fake data' listener. Re #4812.

Changeset: a81f2b1dc3ad302407390aaa1821943c9187fd11

[Russell Taylor]

Copy existing FakeEventDataListener code to test/TestDataListener.

This can then serve as a 'predictable' listener for testing while the FakeEventDataListener is scaled up to generate a certain number of events/sec. Use it in LoadLiveDataTest & StartLiveDataTest. Re #4812, Re #4787, Re #4803.

Changeset: 06893b4a11e9b16d678fcc096651bc71db54e53b

[Russell Taylor]

Generate events continuously in a separate thread. Re #4812.

[Russell Taylor]

Reduce data rate to see if slow win32 machine can cope. Re #4812.

Changeset: 86ad695a9066aa94f484a6255e9b0da4d6160f6e

[Russell Taylor]

Widen tolerance for lousy win32 box. Re #4812.

[Russell Taylor]

Add a listener that read from a prenexus file. Re #4812.

Set the filename and number of chunks via config properties (see header file for details). Now: Loads a chunk on each call to extractData(). Next: Kick off the loading ahead of time in a separate thread.

Changeset: fe7342ed2a45173325abb9a3704973f6ba164093

[Russell Taylor]

Allow data rate for 'fake' listener to be set via config property.

Re #4812. Also forgot to check in changed CMakeLists last time.

[Russell Taylor]

Make tolerance even wider for Windows' benefit. Re #4812.

Changeset: 9f466286bb40ab7c4abc2be0659a591086583736

[Russell Taylor]

FileEventDataListener does the loading in a separate thread....

so that it happens between calls to extractData. Re #4812. Once the whole file is read, an exception is thrown to stop the calling algorithm.

Changeset: a764b6e0f9a6ee12a3296785dbb8ed09c4bef6de

[Russell Taylor]

Test for FileEventDataListener. Re #4812.

Changeset: 34a85ef3fa5d5e680c0a93b0cc557ca894f45477

[Russell Taylor]

Relax check on no. of events in FakeEventDataListenerTest. Re #4812.

Relax it to almost no check as it seems to fluctuate so much in some places and this is just a testing class anyway.

Looks good... I'm sure that there will be more features needed in the future!
