ExamResultGenerator (assignments::one::exam_result_generator)
Overview
The ExamResultGenerator is the core node responsible for simulating exam result generation.
It maintains a queue of student-course combinations that need exam results, generates random
grades, and publishes them to the system.
Implementation Details
Parameters
delay_between_grades_ms(int, default: 2000): Delay (in milliseconds) between generated grades.
Constructor
ExamResultGenerator()
- Initializes ROS2 node with name
exam_result_generator - Sets up random number generation infrastructure
- Creates DatabaseManager instance with node logger
- Establishes ROS2 publishers, subscribers, and timers
- Loads initial pending combinations from database
Core Functions
void queue_pending_combinations()
- Gets all student-course combinations needing exam results
- Populates operations queue from database
- Called at initialization and when database state changes
void generate_random_result()
- Main exam result generation executed by timer
- Selects random student-course combination from queue
- Stores result in database and publishes to ROS2 topic
void student_management_callback(const g2_2025_interfaces::msg::Student::SharedPtr msg)
- Toggles combinations in/out of processing queue
- Updates database with new enrollments
void add_student_course_combination(const StudentCourse& sc)
- Enrolls student into course via database
- Adds combination to processing queue
